A combined water aeration and filtration unit (WAFU), having a tank with a vent section at a top of said WAFU and above an aeration section above a filtration section at a bottom of said WAFU. The vent section has one or more demisters and one or more vents for detraining water and providing a dry air exit from said WAFU. The air section has a water inlet ending in a spray nozzle near the top of the aeration section to turn incoming dirty water into water droplets and a forced air blower on a side or top of the aeration section for blowing air through said water droplets in rate sufficient to remove volatile organic compounds and precipitate manganese and iron. The aeration section also has one or more annular rings or partially annular baffles on an inside wall of the tank to force water from said inside wall into an interior of the tank. Thus, no water escapes aeration. A backwash collection trough and backwash water outlet are positioned above the filtration section for removing dirty backwash water from the unit. The filtration section has one or more filters therein and a drain and clean water outlet near its bottom for egress of clean water from said WAFU.

Water or wastewater filtration systems and processes have a filter tank having a floor and sidewall defining a filtration zone, an influent conduit, and an effluent conduit. One or more filtration members in the tank having filter media, and one or more cleaning members adjacent at least some portions of the filter media. Generating an effluent stream by generating a pressure differential across submerged portions of the filtration media, causing water in the influent to flow from outside to inside the submerged portions of the filter media. A prime mover rotates the filtration members. A blower and chamber for creating a reduced pressure condition in each of the cleaning members when they are non-submerged, the chamber receiving wet solids removed from non-submerged, wet solids-laden portions of the filter media by the non-submerged cleaning members subsequent to submerged, fouled portions of the filter media being rotated out of the filtration zone.

A method of facilitating sustained odor control in an extended sewer line is also disclosed. The method includes providing the blended composition including the immediate release compound and the extended release compound and instructing a user to administer the blended composition to the sewer line control concentration of the odorous compound therein. A system for providing sustained odor control in the extended sewer line including sensors to measure sewer line parameters and a controller to instruct administration of the blended composition is also disclosed.

The present invention describes an automated, transportable and energy-efficient with a hybrid power capacity wastewater treatment facility that allows for the disinfection of contaminated sanitation wastewater in order to preserve the environment and provide a greater availability of this resource and its reuse. The facility described in the present invention allows to carry out a process for water treatment in five stages based in equalization, oxidation sedimentation, disinfection and filtration. Moreover, it has a photovoltaic feeding system and a night lighting system that allows the operation of the facility in a hybrid way during the day and the night, as well as a structure that allows its easy transportation. Finally, the facility has an automated system comprised by a control panel that allows to manage and monitor every operational condition of it, that integrates and sends all processed programmable information to a programmable logic controller.

A water sanitization cap for covering a bottle is provided. The cap may include an ultraviolet-C (“UV-C”) light emitting diode (“LED”) housing and a shell. The shell may be adjacent to a portion of the housing. The cap may also include a waterproof compartment formed within the interior of the housing. The waterproof compartment may include one wall formed at least in part from a transparent material. The cap may include a UV-C LED. The UV-C LED may be fixed within the waterproof compartment, proximal to one end of the UV-C LED housing and oriented to shine light through the transparent material. The cap may include a sensor that when activated, applies a voltage to the UV-C LED to cause the UV-C LED to emit light. The cap may include a cartridge cage that can hold a cartridge. The cartridge cage may be removably attachable to an inner surface of the shell. The waterproof compartment wall may be positioned relative to the cartridge cage such that the UV-C LED, in use, treats water within the bottle before the water flows through the cartridge cage.

The present disclosure provides an apparatus comprising a primary treatment system configured to remove solids from an untreated fluid to generate a primary treated fluid. The apparatus further comprises an oxidation treatment system including an inlet configured to receive the primary treated fluid, an ozone inlet configured to receive ozone from an ozone generator, and an outlet configured to dispense secondary treated fluid. The apparatus may further comprise a controller in electrical communication with the ozone generator. The controller is programmed to regulate the flow of ozone through the oxidation treatment system such that an effective amount of ozone contacts the primary treated fluid to generate the secondary treated fluid. In some embodiments, the secondary treated fluid discharging from the oxidation treatment system has a chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal level of greater than 85%.

Systems and methods for controlling desalting and dehydration of crude oil, one method including monitoring total dissolved solids (TDS) content at an outlet stream from a crude oil separation unit, the outlet stream comprising water; monitoring basic sediment and water (BS&W) content at an outlet stream from the crude oil separation unit, the outlet stream comprising processed crude oil; determining pounds per thousand barrels (PTB) salt content and volumetric water content of a dried, desalted crude oil product stream using the TDS content and BS&W content; and controlling a process input to the method from a comparison between the PTB salt content and volumetric water content of the dried, desalted crude oil product stream versus a maximum set value for PTB salt content and volumetric water content of the dried, desalted crude oil product stream.
