A solar water pasteurizer has a water jug removably disposed in a solar box with insulation and a solar window. The water jug has a lid to close an aperture in the solar box and a handle thermally isolated from the water jug to facilitate handling of the water jug with heated water. Multiple water jugs can be swapped in and out of the solar box. The solar box also has a thermal mass to preserve some heat in the solar box.

Disclosed is an all-in-one emergency shed that can supply electricity and potable drinkable water during an emergency when electrical grid power is not available and water sources may be contaminated. The emergency shed can use battery banks from electric cars to store electrical energy for emergencies and can store electrical energy in electric car battery banks that are charged during off-peak times and resold to the utility company during peak demand periods.

A floating platform, preferably of the spar type, for treating seawater to provide prepared water for injection into a well extending through the seabed. The platform includes an elongate hull structure vertically position-able in a body of water such that the majority of the hull structure is submerged in the body of water, a deck secured to the top of the hull structure so that the deck lies above a surface of the body of water, and a chamber located within or substantially, within the hull structure so that the chamber is also submerged in the body of water and including a water inlet at a lower end of the chamber and a treated water outlet at an upper end, the chamber containing one or more cells for performing an anti-bacterial treatment on water passing up through the chamber from the inlet to the outlet. The platform further includes a pump for pumping water through the chamber from the inlet to the outlet through the cell or cells. In one configuration, the platform may be a spar platform.

A mobile treatment system is provided for treating contaminates in water, particularly during emergency situations such as natural disasters and planned attacks. The mobile treatment system includes a mobile framework; one or more treatment modules mounted on the mobile framework; a piping system in fluid communication with the one or more treatment modules, said piping system comprising one or more pumps configured to convey water to and from the one or more treatment modules; and at least one power source to provide power to the one or more pumps and one or more treatment modules. The treatment modules may include pre-filtration, chlorination treatment that generates chlorine by electrolysis, activated carbon treatment, and treatment using a disinfecting, silver coated composite material.

A handheld sanitizing device may include a housing with a first end and a second end. The housing may enclose a first cavity and a second cavity. A sanitizing light may be disposed at the first end of the housing. The sanitizing light may be configured to kill biological contaminants. A removable cap may attach to the first end and may cover the sanitizing light. An extendable agitator may extend from the first end of the housing and retract into the first cavity. A motor disposed in the first cavity may actuate the agitator. The agitator may be configured to stir a fluid. The housing may be configured to sit in a mouth of a container, extend into a reservoir of the container, and rest on the mouth of the container. A charging port may be disposed on the housing and electronically coupled to the motor and/or the sanitizing light.

An apparatus and method for treating brine water stored in tank batteries or otherwise produced during oil and gas production. The apparatus is portable and can be moved from one location to another to treat the brine water. Once the apparatus is in position, the brine water is pumped out of the tank and sprayed onto heating plates to produce steam. The brine water not evaporated by the plates is collected and filtered, and any precious metals or valuable minerals may be extracted therefrom. Steam generated from the heating process may be used to power an electrical generator, which generator may provide electrical power to operate the apparatus.

A multimode system for cooling and desalination includes a humidification-dehumidification (HDH) system, an ejector cooling cycle (ECC) system and valves. The HDH system includes a heater, a humidifier and a dehumidifier. The ECC system includes a generator, an evaporator, an ejector and a condenser. The valves are configured to connect to inlets and outlets of the heater, the generator and a heat source so that by selectively opening and closing the valves, the heat source is connected to the heater while disconnected from the generator, or connected to the generator while disconnected from the heater, or connected to both the heater and the generator, or disconnected from both the heater and the generator. The ECC system and the HDH system are connected at the condenser for heat exchange.

The embodiments disclose an apparatus including at least one hypochlorous acid generator for producing purified hypochlorous acid from purified water and pure salt, a mixing tank container hypochlorous acid generator for processing the purified water and pure salt, a cap with vent configured to release gases created during an electrolysis operation, a water intake port to fill the mixing tank container with fill water automatically using an automatic system intake valve, a water drain port to drain liquid from the mixing tank container, an AC port to route external power circuits connections, at least one crossing double electrode module configured to provide ultraviolet light to purify water and perform electrolysis, an LCD control panel coupled to control buttons to display processing status and operation control settings, and a hypochlorous acid generator app on a user digital device to transmit hypochlorous acid generator control settings.

Dye-sensitized ion-pumping membranes and methods of preparing said membranes are described herein. A regenerative and reversible photoactive dye is covalently-bonded to membrane or separator for ion-pumping. The photoactive dye-functionalized membranes can be arranged with other ion-exchange membranes, which serve as selective contacts to afford photovoltaic action and therefore form a power-producing membrane that pumps ions for use in driving an ion-exchange or ion-transport process, such as desalination and electrodialysis.

An exemplary power system utilizes turbines configured within a water intake conduit to the desalination processor to produce power for the desalination processor. Water intakes are configured to provide a natural flow of water to the desalination processor though hydrostatic pressure. One or more turbines coupled with the water intake conduits are driven and produce power for the system. The desalination processor incorporates Graphene filters to and may include a structured water system to increase the H3O2 concentration of the water prior to Graphene filters. Discharge water may be pumped back into the body of water but be separated from the intakes. A secondary power source, such as a renewable power source, may be used to produce supplemental power for the system. Power produced may be provided to a secondary outlet, such as a power grid, all above and/or underground.
