Filtration system with bypass and filtering configurations, and components and methods of operation thereof
A water filtration system is provided. The system may include a connector and a filter configured to be mounted in the connector. The connector may include a connector body, a connector inner core, a connector core baffle, a connector body water inlet of the connector body, and a connector body water outlet of the connector body. The water filtration system may have a filtering configuration and a bypass configuration. In the filtering configuration, the water filtration system may be configured to direct water through the filter. In the bypass configuration, the water filtration system may be configured to direct water out the connector body water outlet without passage through the filter. The water filtration system may be in the filtering configuration when the filter is fully mounted in the connector. The water filtration system may be in the bypass configuration when the filter is not fully mounted in the connector.
FILTER MODULE FOR WATER DISPENSING DEVICE
A filter module for a water dispensing device according to the present disclosure includes a filter housing which has an inflow port and a discharge port, and a plurality of filters which includes a filtration member provided in the filter housing to purify water flowing therein through the inflow port and to supply purified water to the discharge port, and filtering raw water flowing therein from the outside into purified water, and the filter module includes a pre-filter through which raw water passes firstly and in which a first carbon block having a hollow shape is built-in, a hollow fiber membrane (UF membrane) filter through which water passes through the pre-filter passes secondly, a second carbon block having a hollow shape through which water passing through the hollow fiber membrane filter passes thirdly, and an electrostatic adsorption member through which water passing through the second carbon block passes fourthly.

Portable multi-step apparatus and method for producing potable water
A portable, multi-step apparatus and method for producing potable water in remote locations.
PORTABLE WATER PURIFICATION SYSTEMS AND METHOD OF ASSEMBLING SAME
A portable liquid filtration device includes a GPS tracking unit, a portable housing, an inlet configured to receive non-potable water, and an ozone chamber positioned within the portable housing. The ozone chamber is configured to generate an ozone gas from received air. The device also includes a filtration duct positioned within the portable housing and downstream from the inlet. The filtration duct includes at least one oxidation chamber configured to mix the received water with the ozone gas, and at least one ultraviolet (UV) chamber downstream from the at least one oxidation chamber and including a UV lamp positioned adjacent the water within the filtration duct. The device further includes an outlet positioned on the portable housing and downstream from the filtration duct. The filtration duct is operable to output at least 150 liters per hour of the received water from the outlet as potable water.
Ballast water, bilge water, slop water, or oily water treatment systems and related methods
Disclosed are remote oily water treatment systems, including systems and related methods of remote oily water treatment with point-of-treatment discharge of treated water. In a preferred embodiment, (a) oily water is treated at a location proximate to where the oily water by passing the oily water through a tank containing a medium defined by at least one polymer mixed with activated carbon and (b) treated water is discharged at the point-of-treatment of the oily water.
Apparatus for filtering and/or conditioning and/or purifying a fluid such as water
An apparatus for filtering water has a valve head and a filtration/purification canister removably mountable thereon. Connecting the canister to the valve head automatically opens a check valve in the valve head to permit water to flow from the valve head into and through the canister, and then back to and through the valve head to an outlet port. Disconnecting the canister from the valve head automatically closes the check valve, stopping the flow of water. A bypass valve is provided in the valve head to permit a sanitizing solution to flow through the valve head and along the lines of the water distribution system to sanitize the system, while bypassing the canister. The outlet port may be directly connected to an appliance that uses water, to eliminate possible contamination that may occur when water is brought indirectly from the outlet port to the appliance instead.
Air-conditioner unit
An air-conditioner unit comprising: a temperature regulation unit having an evaporator; a condensate filtration unit arranged to receive a condensate from the evaporator, and operable to filter the condensate; wherein the air-conditioner unit comprises a controller to operate the condensate filtration unit between a plurality of purging states, the plurality of purging states comprises a first purging state wherein the condensate is purged bypassing the condensate filter unit and a second purging state wherein filtered condensate is purged.
