A desalination apparatus 12 (liquid treatment apparatus) includes a first water treatment unit 26 (liquid treatment unit) that includes a reverse osmosis membrane and in which a treated liquid is separated into a permeate that permeates the reverse osmosis membrane and a concentrate other than the permeate, a water recovery unit 28 (liquid recovery unit) that includes a reverse osmosis membrane and in which the concentrate is separated into a recovered liquid that permeates the reverse osmosis membrane and a waste liquid other than the recovered liquid, and a pressure increasing means that increases a liquid pressure of the concentrate, such that a state capable of separating into the recovered liquid and the waste liquid in the liquid recovery unit continues, and that directly feeds the concentrate from the liquid treatment unit to the liquid recovery unit.

Movable thick dehydration device and method for eluent sediment from medium- and low-concentration ammonia nitrogen are provided. The device integrates the existing eluent preparing mechanism, a transferring mechanism, pumping mechanisms, a transport vehicle, an automatic controlling system, an eluent collecting pool, primary and secondary sedimentation pools, and primary and secondary processing units. After post-treatment and recovery of eluent waste from rare earth mines, ammonia nitrogen and rare earth heavy metals in the eluent of rare earth mines can be recovered and disposed, and 90% of ammonia nitrogen and over 95% of rare earth in the eluent can be recycled. The device is movable and automated, and therefore suitable for environmental treatment of closed rare earth mines with residual ammonia nitrogen. Meanwhile, it is beneficial to reduce investment costs of capital construction, disposal site restoration of environmental treatment of rare earth mines with residual ammonia nitrogen.

A combined vessel comprises a stripping section for removing acid gases from a sour water stream and a direct contact heat exchanger section for heating a graywater stream in order to improve heat and mass transfer in the treatment and recycle of water streams for a gasification process.

A system for transferring marine life within an aquaculture facility including a plurality of segregated storage facilities each containing water for marine life, maintained within a predetermined temperature range and supported at independent ground levels. The storage facilities are successively disposed and structured to contain marine life at different stages of growth. A transfer assembly includes a path of fluid flow interconnecting successive ones of said plurality of storage facilities in fluid communication with one another, wherein at least a majority of a length of said path of fluid flow is disposed beneath the independent ground levels at a predetermined depth, which is sufficient to facilitate maintenance of the path of fluid flow within the predetermined temperature range, via geothermal cooling. The transfer assembly may also connect a holding facility, which may be dimensioned and structured to transfer mature marine life, possibly on an on-demand basis, to the harvesting facility.

A water electrolysis system includes: a water electrolyzer configured to electrolyze water to generate gas including oxygen and hydrogen; a gas-liquid separator configured to separate gas phase including hydrogen from liquid phase of the gas generated by the water electrolyzer; a water level detector configured to detect a water level in the gas-liquid separator; a pressure detector configured to detect a pressure of the gas phase in the gas-liquid separator; and a CPU and a memory coupled to the CPU. The CPU is configured to perform: calculating an error of the water level in the gas-liquid separator detected by the water level detector based on the pressure of the gas phase in the gas-liquid separator detected by the pressure detector.

A process for PFAS decontamination comprises exposing water comprising PFAS contaminant to gas to accumulate a PFAS concentrate and separating the PFAS concentrate. PFAS separation is enhanced by the addition of a hydrofluorocarbon refrigerant, such as 1,1,1,2 tetraflouroethane, difluoromethane or pentaflouroethane to the gas wherein it is believed that with carbon-fluorine bonds of the hydrofluorocarbon refrigerant aid in attracting the carbon fluorine tail of all types of PFAS compounds to the water-gas interface and especially aids separation of smaller molecular weight PFAS molecules, including beyond what can be achieved using charged or ionised gases alone, thereby allowing a larger spectrum of PFAS molecules to be extracted from soil or water.

The present invention relates to systems and methods for cleaning materials, such as flooring and upholstery. In some cases, the systems and methods use an electrolytic cell to electrolyze a solution comprising sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, sodium acetate, sodium percarbonate, potassium carbonate, potassium bicarbonate, and/or any other suitable chemical to generate electrolyzed alkaline water and/or electrolyzed oxidizing water. In some cases, the cell comprises a recirculation loop that recirculates anolyte through an anode compartment of the cell. In some cases, the cell further comprises a senor and a processor, where the processor is configured to automatically change an operation of the cell, based on a reading from the sensor. In some cases, a fluid flows past a magnet before entering the cell. In some additional cases, fluid from the cell is conditioned by being split into multiple conduits that run in proximity to each other. Additional implementations are described.
