A pressure balancing system for two sides of an electrodialysis reversal (EDR) film stack includes two source water inlets, an EDR film stack, four pressure sensors, a variable speed pump, a one-way valve, a clean water outlet, a waste water outlet, and a control system module. With the four pressure sensors detecting water pressures at four ports on two sides of the EDR film stack and with the variable speed pump and the control system module adjusting water pressure at the waste water outlet, water pressure at the clean water outlet is equivalent to the water pressure at the waste water outlet. Accordingly, the water pressures on the two sides of the EDR film stack can be balanced, and service life and water purification efficiency of the EDR film stack can be improved.

A ballast water treatment system according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a first ballast water supply pipe for receiving a supply of ballast water from a first sea chest positioned in a non-explosion-proof area of a ship; an electrolytic bath for electrolyzing the ballast water supplied from the first ballast water supply pipe; a second ballast water supply pipe for receiving a supply of ballast water from a second sea chest, which is positioned in an explosion-proof area of the ship, and supplying the ballast water to a ballast tank of the ship; a filter provided to the second ballast water supply pipe so as to filter the ballast water passing through the second ballast water supply pipe; and a third ballast water supply pipe connected to the second ballast water supply pipe so as to supply the ballast water, which has been electrolyzed from the electrolytic bath, to the ballast water which has passed through the filter.

An aeration diffuser system includes an air inlet conduit defining an orifice, an air plenum coupled to the air inlet conduit at the orifice, such that the air plenum and the air inlet conduit are in fluid communication, a diffuser secured to a top of the air plenum, and a plurality of pressure transducers including a first pressure transducer at least partially located inside the air inlet conduit, and a second pressure transducer at least partially located inside the air plenum.

A reverse osmosis (RO) system is described that is connectable to a dialysis machine and is capable of using heated purified water to clean and disinfect an external connection section or portion disposed between the RO system and the dialysis unit (or any other external heat tolerant device) without forming a closed loop system between both systems before and during a heat forward process. This can be accomplished without the need for direct/indirect or wired/wireless communication with the dialysis unit or the need to introduce a chemical cleaner or process that would require further rinsing after chemical disinfection.

A treatment system and method for cephalosporin wastewater are disclosed. The treatment system includes: a flocculation and sedimentation device, an alkali reaction tank, a PAC reaction tank, a PAM reaction tank, a wastewater heat exchanger, a wastewater heater and an oxidation reactor that are connected with each other in sequence, wherein the wastewater heat exchanger is provided with a material inlet, a material outlet, a heat source inlet and a heat source outlet. An oxidized water from the oxidation reactor enters the wastewater heat exchanger from the heat source inlet, the heat source outlet is connected with a product canister, the product canister is connected with a membrane filtration device to realize concentration treatment of a landfill leachate, the material inlet is connected with the PAM reaction tank, and the material outlet is connected with the wastewater heater. An outer side of the oxidation reactor is provided with a micro-interfacial generation system for dispersing and breaking a gas into bubbles. The treatment system of the prevent invention improves the contact of reaction phase interfaces after arranging the micro-interfacial generation system, which ensures a good wastewater treatment effect under relatively mild operating conditions.

A digital twin model based operation and optimization of a reverse osmosis plant uses a data processing system to receive data for a reverse osmosis membrane in a plant that with a plurality of assets. The data processing system can determine a level of performance of the membrane based on the data for the membrane input into a model generated with sa topology indicative of one or more relationships and a flow path between the plurality of assets, predict, based on the model and responsive to the level of performance input into an optimization function for the plant, a time at which the level of performance degrades below a threshold, and provide an indication of the time at which the level of performance degrades below the threshold predicted using the optimization function to cause servicing of the membrane used to process the fluid at the plant.

The present disclosure is directed to filtering technologies that combine elements of continuous and batch NF/RO based on the constraints of the end-user facility to achieve a target balance between, for instance, recovery and power consumption, and to reduce long term operating cost of a plant. A method for extending batch operation into a second induction period with antiscalant injection is also disclosed herein, with the second induction period allowing for yet higher water recovery.

The present invention relates to systems and methods for removing selenate and/or selenite from water and recovering elemental selenium.
