A surface water mitigation structure suitable for use in the storage and treatment of contaminated surface water runoff. The runoff is processed through a multi-layered filtration and treatment system wherein the first layer is one or more permeable layers that is pervious enough to allow liquid runoff to pass through it and into a porous storage medium second layer that includes one or more remediating agents, and wherein the effluent from the surface water mitigation structure can be discharged to the ground, the surface, and/or a drainage system reduced or free of contaminants.

A process and/or system for producing fuel using renewable hydrogen having a reduced carbon intensity. The renewable hydrogen is produced in a hydrogen production process comprising methane reforming, wherein at least a portion of the feedstock for the hydrogen production process comprises upgraded biogas sourced from a plurality of biogas plants. Each of the upgraded biogases is produced in a process that includes collecting biogas comprising methane and carbon dioxide, capturing at least 50% of the carbon dioxide originally present in the collected biogas and producing the upgraded biogas. Storage of the captured carbon dioxide reducing a carbon intensity of the fuel, without having to provide carbon capture and storage of carbon dioxide from hydrogen production.

A pet water fountain is described comprising a bowl for holding an aqueous drinking fluid. The pet water fountain includes a housing configured to cover a portion of the bowl and have a fluid reservoir. The pet water fountain includes a rotatable cone positioned within the housing, the cone tapering outwardly from a bottom end to a top end, the cone bottom end having a fluid inlet to allow the passage of fluid from the bowl through the inlet and into the interior of the cone, the cone top end being in fluid communication with the housing fluid reservoir. The pet water fountain includes a filter ring coupled to the cone top end, the filter ring having an exterior housing and a filtering media positioned within the exterior housing, and an electric motor coupled to the rotatable cone for rotatably driving the rotatable cone.

The present application relates to a field of excrement treatment equipment in particular, relates to an ultra-high temperature excrement solid-liquid separation extrusion sterilization integrated machine. It includes a solid-liquid separator, a workbench and an extrusion sterilization device. The solid-liquid separator is disposed on the workbench. The extrusion sterilization device includes an extrusion sterilization motor, an extrusion feeding assembly, a receiving pipe, a receiving box and a dehydrating cage.

The present application discloses a method of binding a metal ion in water. The method comprises contacting the water with a fraction of dissolved organic material (DOM) to form a complex between the DOM fraction and the metal ion; and optionally separating the complex from the water. The present application also discloses a use of DOM for binding a metal ion in water.

An MOFs/MIPs catalyst, an in situ growth preparation method for same, and applications thereof are provided. The method comprises: uniformly mixing template molecules, a functional monomer, and a pore-foaming agent and performing a prepolymerization to produce a prepolymerization reaction product; uniformly mixing a cross-linking agent, an initiator, and the prepolymerization reaction product, heating, eluting the template molecules via a Soxhlet extraction, and drying to produce an imprinted polymer; uniformly mixing dimethylformamide, 2,5-dihydroxyterephthalic acid, ferrous chloride, water, methanol, and the imprinted polymer, heating, washing, using methanol for immersion and washing, and drying to produce the MOFs/MIPs catalyst.

A method and an apparatus for maintaining a stable microbial community in a combined anaerobic-aerobic waste processing system. The system comprises cycling of waste activated sludge between reactors, thereby ensuring a healthy microbial community and an efficient waste decomposition.

A method to clean a treatment water containing brackish or sea water and further containing a veterinary product for aquatic animals, the method comprising the steps of: moving the treatment water, from a treatment aquatic area in which the aquatic animals are treated, toward a reaction vessel, performing a first degradation step of a portion of the veterinary product from the moved treatment water in the reaction vessel by an advanced oxidation process comprising introducing ozone and a basic substance, to obtain a reacting treatment water, performing a second degradation step of a remaining portion of the veterinary product in the reacting treatment water after the first degradation step, by retaining the reacting treatment water during a predetermined time and without introducing ozone, reducing the remaining oxidant species of the reacting treatment water, after the second degradation step, in order to obtain a clean treatment water.

A method for treating wastewater or sludge includes treating a sludge having a first viscosity of from about 3,000 cP to about 15,000 cP by shearing the sludge to obtain a treated sludge having a second viscosity of less than 3,000 cP, where the second viscosity persists for a period of time. The sludge may be thickened by dewatering. A chemical agent may be added to the thickened sludge during, before, or after shearing. The treated sludge may further be pumped, transported, or otherwise handled.

An extraction manifold for extracting digestate from a covered lagoon digester includes a digester vessel being shaped generally as a rectangular prism lacking an upward facing face and having a floor sloping generally downward from an intake face to an extraction face of the digester vessel. The intake face and extraction face are oriented vertically, situated in opposed relation on a longer horizontal axis. Each effluent pipe terminates in an extraction nozzle on one end and an independently addressable actuatable valve on the opposite end. Each actuatable valve communicates with a manifold plenum such that actuation of the valve draws digestate from the floor in a region of the floor adjacent to the extraction face and in proximity to the extraction nozzle. A valve controller actuates valves to remove digestate from the region of the floor adjacent to the extraction face. The valve controller includes sensors to monitor biogas production.
