The invention relates to a method for operating a water filter cartridge in a pipe, said water filter cartridge having a housing in the form of a pressure vessel, and an inlet and an outlet for water, characterized in that a main flow of water to which minerals are added is conducted through a main pipe inside the pressure vessel, and a dosing flow of concentrated salt solution is conducted through a dosing pipe, wherein the dosing pipe branches off from the main pipe and passes through a reservoir of constant volume and in which there is a concentrated salt solution consisting of sulphate salt, chloride salt and/or hydrogen carbonate salt, wherein the part of the dosing pipe extending from the reservoir leads into the main flow at a dosing point through a dosing opening with a constant flow cross-section, and wherein a resistance section which is situated upstream of the dosing point in the main flow is used to set the flow resistance in the main flow such that a pressure difference results between the main flow and the dosing flow and causes a volumetric flow rate of the dosing flow of salt solution which is substantially proportional to the main flow, through the dosing opening opening into the main flow.

An internal reticulated foam filter for a water filtration tank is an apparatus that thoroughly filters water of a variety of water filtration tanks. The apparatus includes a flow-management assembly, at least one inner tube, at least one outer tube, and a plurality of foam filters. The flow-management assembly positions the apparatus around a distributing tube of a water filtration tank. The at least one inner tube upholds the plurality of foam filters against a central tube of the distributing tube. The at least one outer tube releases the water filtered by the plurality of foam filters back into the water filtration tank. The flow-management assembly also includes a first cap, a second cap, a plurality of main inlets, a plurality of channels, and a plurality of main outlets. The plurality of main inlets is in fluid communication with the plurality of main outlets through the plurality of channels.

Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) events require certain minimum treatment, before discharge, according to EPA regulations. However, these events are infrequent, and CSO treatment systems remain idle most of the time. Tertiary filtration is typically used to polish off the secondary treated water in order to remove suspended matter, phosphorous, etc. Tertiary systems are usually designed to handle design flows and remain active most of the time. These are two independent unit operations requiring major capital investment and operational expense. According to this invention an interchangeable system is able to switch a tertiary treatment reactor back and forth between two applications ensuring seamless operation, smooth transition and significant cost savings for treatment facilities.

The pure water manufacturing management system includes a pure water manufacturing device; an analysis device that inspects water quality; a first valve provided to first piping connected to the outlet side of the manufacturing device, the first valve controlling the amount of pure water supplied to a storage tank; second piping that branches from the first piping and is connected to the analysis device; and a control device, the control device controlling the analysis device during supply of the pure water to the storage tank, repeatedly performing water quality inspection of the pure water flowing in through the second piping, opening the first valve when, as a result of the water quality inspection, the water quality of the pure water satisfies a prescribed standard, and closing the first valve when the water quality of the pure water does not satisfy the prescribed standard.

A device for purifying at least one fluid is provided. The device includes at least a first ion exchange column, an inlet line and an outlet line. The inlet line and the outlet line are associated with a cover part, the inlet line is connected to a first supply line into a first free space between a bottom part and at least one nozzle insert, which is formed as a first bottom nozzle insert, and the nozzle insert has a number of openings for the passage of the fluid. The openings are distributed over at least a partial surface of the nozzle insert, by which the fluid can be introduced into a first volume of the ion exchange column which can be filled with an ion exchange resin.

A biocide testing system includes test columns, a bypass tube, control valves, and a control system. Each test column includes biocide test coupons. The bypass tube is fluidly coupled to each of the test columns. Each control valve is coupled between a respective test column and the bypass tube. The control system performs operations including: controlling the control valves to fluidly couple the test columns to a water source; controlling a pump to circulate water from the water source into the test columns to immerse each test coupon in water; controlling the control valves to fluidly isolate the test columns from the water source and to fluidly isolate each test column from the other test columns; controlling a particular control valve to fluidly couple a particular test column to a biocide source; and controlling the pump to circulate biocide from the biocide source into the particular test column to immerse the test coupons in the particular test column in biocide.

It discloses to a device and a method for controlling pollutants in metal mine water resources cycling utilization. The device includes a multi-stage inflow constructed wetland (3), in which one or more layers of the filler are laid, and water distribution pipes (4) are buried at different height levels in the filler layers for multi-stage inflow, so that the received basin water is allowed to flow through each layer of the filler to degrade or remove the pollutants. In the multi-stage inflow constructed wetland, the types of fillers, dosage ratio, particle size and filling height of fillers in each layer are specifically selected. Therefore, heavy metal adsorption, suspended matter filtration, organic matter degradation, dephosphorization and denitrification can be effectively realized in the multi-stage inflow constructed wetland.

A liquid filtration system comprising a filtration tank with: a separating roof on which are mounted groups of hoses fixed to respective support plates; a fluid distributor plate comprising a central portion without perforations, and a peripheral portion with a plurality of perforations, said distributor plate being located between the hoses and a lower inlet duct for the water to be filtered comprising an upper opening for supplying liquid to the holes near the central portion of the distributor plate and a lower opening for supplying liquid to the holes of the peripheral portion which are furthest from the central portion. The filter comprises a filter material, an outlet duct for the filtered water at the upper area of the tank, a regeneration circuit of the filter medium; a filter self-cleaning circuit and a control panel.

An industrial wastewater and hydrocarbon treatment system including of a plurality of reactors and treatment modules that allows the application of principles of chemistry and quantum physics, dissociating electrons from the atoms or chemical elements contained in the hydrocarbon contaminated water. This invention advantageously allows the separation of water and oil in an efficient way, through the use of electromagnetic pulses with low amperage, and a series of filters.
