The present invention relates to a ballast water treatment system including an air compressor for compressing air; an air receiver tank for receiving the compressed air from the air compressor and storing the compressed air; an oxygen generator for generating oxygen from the air supplied from the air receiver tank; an oxygen receiver tank for storing the oxygen supplied from the oxygen generator; an ozone generator for generating ozone from the oxygen supplied from the oxygen receiver tank; a ballast water pump for pumping ballast water; an inflow line for transferring the ballast water from the ballast water pump; a ballast water tank for receiving the ballast water from the inflow line and storing the ballast water; and an ozone injector for injecting the ozone into the ballast water of the inflow line.

A sterilization system with multipurpose degasser has a vortex mixing cylinder, an endcap, and a deionization system. The vortex mixing cylinder is a container that has an inlet an outlet. The inlet and out enable an ozone-water mixture to flow into a mixing chamber within the vortex mixing cylinder. The mixing chamber is designed to facilitate the formation of an ozone saturated ozone-water mixture. The endcap is used to cover an opening of the mixing chamber and is used to expel gasses out of the mixing chamber. The deionization system is an electrical filter that removes ozone particles from the air within the mixing chamber. The deionization system is mounted in between the vortex mixing cylinder and the endcap. Accordingly, gasses must pass through the deionization system prior to being expelled through the endcap. The ozone particles are removed from the gasses being expelled through the endcap, prior to expulsion.

A hyper-oxygenated water composition comprising water and 10 ppm to 50 ppm of molecular oxygen, methods and systems of making and using the hyper-oxygenated water composition are described. The hyper-oxygenated water composition was made by pre-filtering and filtering by reverse osmosis of a source water, ozonolyzing and vortexing with oxygen with the water, ultraviolet irradiating and treating with hydrogen peroxide the water. The hyper-oxygenated water composition can be used for general improvement of human well-being and prevention and treatment of diseases by oral or transcutaneous administration of the hyper-oxygenated water composition.

The present disclosure provides methods and systems for processing or treating wastewater. The methods of systems of the present disclosure may perform a treatment process on a wastewater stream including gray water and black water to produce a product stream. The product stream may comprise a potable water stream or a stream of treated water with a reduced concentration of one or more contaminant originally included in the wastewater stream.

A water filtration and disinfection device comprises a water basin having an inlet for receiving water from a source. A sidestream treatment device is provided for treating water from the water basin, and the sidestream treatment device comprises a plurality of filtration or disinfection mechanisms for acting on water within the sidestream treatment device. A feed conduit extends between the water basin and the sidestream treatment device for feeding water from the water basin to the sidestream and a return conduit extends from the sidestream treatment device to the water basin for returning at least a part of the water to the water basin.

A two-stage treatment process for destroying per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in an aqueous stream. The two-stage treatment process uses a combination of multifunctional crystalline molecular sieves, such as zeolites and zeotypes, to separate PFAS from the aqueous stream, catalytically decompose and defluorinate any PFAS molecules, and generate non-toxic waste products that are safe for disposal. The first stage includes adsorption of the PFAS within one of a pair of vessels containing porous, hydrophobic, hydrothermally stable molecular sieves, dehydration of the captured PFAS on the sieves, and catalytic ozonation of the captured PFAS molecules on the dried sieves. The second stage involves catalytic decomposition and neutralization of the ozonation results with one of a pair of vessels including a zeolite-supported CaO catalyst, catalytic oxidation of any toxic CO generated by the decomposition, and an acid wash for regeneration of the spent catalyst.

The invention relates to a pool filtration system for a pool, having a primary filter and a backwash filter, as well as a backwash return conduit, by which, when the pool is being backwashed, the water is directed to the backwash filter, then to the backwash return conduit and back to the pool. The system allows for recycling of backwash water back into the pool.

Wastewater is remanufactured with ozone in a series of mixing vessels. The ozone is dispersed to both a top and a bottom portion of each mixing vessel, but in different amounts. This creates an electrical potential difference across the height of each mixing vessel which significantly improves the oxidation of organic carbon-based impurities and eliminates H2S and bacteria. Sludge and solids floating to the top of each mixing vessels are removed, as well as sludge and solids settling to the bottom of the mixing vessels. When oil and gas well wastewater is treated in this manner, the resulting treated water is purified and has a high salt content suitable for oil or gas well injection.
