A method for treating sulfur contaminants is provided. The method comprises introducing a methylmorpholine-N-oxide solution to a vessel, wherein the vessel comprises a water layer and a gas layer, wherein the water layer and the gas layer comprise the hydrogen sulfide; introducing methylmorpholine-N-oxide into the water layer; and treating the water layer by allowing the methylmorpholine-N-oxide to react with the hydrogen sulfide.

Aqueous activated ferrate solutions, methods of their preparation, and methods of disinfecting organisms and oxidizing pollutants in water are provided.

A method for removing sulfides from an aqueous liquid, wherein the aqueous liquid is contacted with an oxidizer in the presence of fibrous material dyed with at least one sulfur dye or sulfurized vat dye, to convert the sulfides in the aqueous liquid to a non-toxic product.

A water treatment device includes: an oxidationor for causing pretreatment gas to be in contact with filtered water; a water quality measurement device for performing water quality measurement for the filtered water; and a controller which controls the oxidationor, determines oxidation progress of oxidizable substances in the filtered water on the basis of a first change amount obtained from change over time in a measurement value obtained through water quality measurement for the filtered water by the water quality measurement device, and determines to continue or stop supply of the pretreatment gas to the filtered water.

Described herein is a method for differentially lysing a liquid sample or target material using an Augmented Oxidizing Agent (AOA), which includes a quantity of Electronically Modified Oxygen Derivatives (EMODs). The method reduces or eliminates total dissolved solids (TDS), total suspended solids (TSS), microbial concentration, biofilms and other content in the liquid target material known or suspected to contain animal fluids, blood and blood cells and suspected or known to contain eukaryotic cells, microbial cells, bacteria, viruses, spores, fungi, prions, organic matter, minerals, proteins or associated structures. The TDS and TSS can be lowered or eliminated as desired. This action is directly proportional to the quantity of EMODs in the AOS applied to the liquid target material.

A mobile water purification system having a trailer, a pretreatment subsystem having a cyclonic separator, a filtering subsystem fluidly connected with the pretreatment subsystem, the filtering subsystem having at least one bedded filter; a reverse osmosis subsystem fluidly connected with the filtering subsystem, the reverse osmosis subsystem having a waste output and a product output; a collection tank fluidly connected with and downstream of the reverse osmosis subsystem; a distribution subsystem fluidly connected with and downstream of the collection tank; a source water inlet mounted to the exterior and fluidly connected to the pretreatment inlet, the source water inlet outside of the at-least partially enclosed space; and a discharge water outlet mounted to the plurality of sidewalls and fluidly connected to the pressure tank, the discharge water outlet having an outlet opening outside of the at least partially-enclosed space.

A method and system treat contaminated water. In one embodiment, the method comprises treating contaminated water by introducing a methylmorpholine-N-oxide solution to a vessel. The vessel contains the contaminated water and iron oxide. The contaminated water comprises contaminants. In addition, the methylmorpholine-N-oxide solution comprises methylmorpholine-N-oxide and water. The method further comprises contacting the methylmorpholine-N-oxide solution with the contaminated water. In addition, the method comprises treating the contaminated water by allowing the methylmorpholine-N-oxide to react with the contaminants in the presence of the iron oxide.

A system, method and apparatus for determining and controlling water clarity or water opacity especially useful in pools, spas, and contained bodies of water.

A method of controlling corrosion, scaling, and biological growth in equipment such as boilers, chillers, cooling towers, heat exchangers, radiators, and pipes, each having water therein, comprising: adding oxygen or air to the water; and maintaining a pH level of the water at a level greater than 7. Additionally, the total dissolved solids level of the water may be limited to less than 100 ppm and phosphate to less than 0.1 ppm.

A method for removing hydrogen sulfide from a biogas, wherein the hydrogen sulfide is absorbed in an aqueous liquid to produce a cleaned gas having a reduced amount of hydrogen sulfide relative to the biogas. The aqueous liquid is subsequently treated by contacting with a sulfur dye or sulfurized vat dye in the presence of an oxidizer such as oxygen gas, to convert the sulfides in the aqueous liquid to a non-toxic, water-soluble, product.
