There is disclosed a system and process for the anaerobic and aerobic treatment of landfill wastewater, including landfill condensate, landfill leachate and mixtures thereof.

A system for treating a source of water contaminated with PFAS is disclosed. The system includes a PFAS separation stage having an inlet fluidly connectable to the source of water contaminated with PFAS, a diluate outlet, and a concentrate outlet and a PFAS elimination stage positioned downstream of the PFAS separation stage and having an inlet fluidly connected to an outlet of the PFAS separation stage, the elimination of the PFAS occurring onsite with respect to the source of water contaminated with PFAS, with the system maintaining an elimination rate of PFAS greater than about 99%. A method of treating water contaminated with PFAS is also disclosed. The method includes introducing contaminated water from a source of water contaminated with a first concentration of PFAS to an inlet of a

PFAS separation stage, treating the contaminated water in the PFAS separation stage to produce a product water substantially free of PFAS and a PFAS concentrate having a second PFAS concentration greater than the first PFAS concentration, introducing the PFAS concentrate to an inlet of a PFAS elimination stage; and activating the PFAS elimination stage to eliminate the PFAS in the PFAS concentrate. A method of retrofitting a water treatment system as described herein is also disclosed. The method includes providing a PFAS elimination module as described herein and fluidly connecting the PFAS elimination module downstream of a PFAS separation stage.

A ultrapure water supply system 10 includes a pure water tank 16 provided vertically below a use point 30, a return pipe 32 through which ultrapure water is returned from the use point 30 to the pure water tank 16, a first pressure regulating valve 40 that is provided at a first position H1 of the return pipe 32 and adjusts a first pressure upstream of the first position H1 and a second pressure regulating valve 42 that is provided at a second position H2 downstream of the first position H1 and vertically below the first position H1 of the return pipe 32 and adjusts a second pressure downstream of the first position H1 and upstream of the second position H2.

The present invention discloses a filtering apparatus for filtering liquid and dispensing the filtered liquid into a bottle separate from the filtering apparatus. The filtering apparatus includes an elongated housing having an interior for holding liquid. The elongated housing includes an opening at one end and a ceiling at another end. The opening encompasses projections extending towards the center of the elongated housing. The filtering apparatus includes a filter configured for insertion and removal from the elongated housing. The elongated housing receives the filter at the interior through the opening. The elongated housing receives a bottle at the opening and the projections hold the bottle at the opening while preventing further entry of the bottle into the interior of the elongated housing. The interior holds liquid and allows the liquid to flow down through the filter. The filter filters the liquid as it flows through. The filtered water enters the bottle for subsequent use, storage or transport.

In some embodiments, a device for use in a brine tank can include a shell that defines an interior volume and configured to displace granular salt from the interior volume when the granular salt is present in the brine tank. The shell can be further configured to allow liquid to pass therethrough while preventing the granular salt from entering the interior volume. In some embodiments, the shell can be mated with a tube such that during transfer of the liquid to and from the brine tank through an opening of the tube, the opening of the tube is positioned within the interior volume.

An ion exchange system includes an ion exchange column filled with ion exchange media and a passive cooling system. The passive cooling system includes a working fluid that transfers heat away from the ion exchange column. In one embodiment, the working fluid is in a closed system. In another embodiment, the passive cooling system includes a heat pipe. In yet another embodiment, the ion exchange system is used to separate radionuclides, such as Cs-137 from a liquid waste stream.
