Equipment and procedure for the extraction of solids from contaminated fluids
Equipment and procedure for extraction of solids from contaminated fluids whose basic purpose is to obtain the crystallised solids from the contaminated fluids, without any type of rejection in order to valorize them and to obtain purified water in a single stage, all in a continuous adiabatic/sonic process with evaporation/crystallisation and with low energy consumption and where the procedure is characterised by being constituted basically by at least three circuits fully interconnected as a single piece of equipment where the first circuit, the principal circuit, is constituted by an inlet duct of the contaminated fluid to be treated (1) followed by a pre-filter (2) followed by a filter for fine particles (3), a heat exchanger of preheated contaminated fluid (5) in the heat exchanger (4), followed by a fluid feedback pump (6) to a nozzle formed by an injector (7) and an ejector (8), which introduce the fluid to an evaporation chamber (9), where the steam that exits is introduced into a closed-loop electromagnetic servomechanism (26), an saturated steam ejector outlet (32), driven to the heat exchanger (4), outlet (13) as purified water from the saturated steam (22).
DEVICE FOR PRODUCING BIOMASS AND ITS DERIVATIVES
A device for the decentralized and continuous production of biomass at home, which comprises: a culture container for continuous processes, in batch and in a fed batch connected to a system that provides gaseous components; and all the supplied components are sterilized by a filter; a solids dispenser that is connected to a solids reservoir, and which can quantify the dispensed solids; a dissolving-unit that is connected to the solids dispenser, to a liquids metering pump, and to a purified water generation system, and where the dissolving-unit exit is connected to the culture tank by the culture medium filters; and the latter communicate the fluids with the dissolving-unit and the culture tank; a device that contains and dispenses the inoculum that initiates the culture, and which is connected to the culture tank; a temperature-controlled rotary drum system is connected to the culture tank to separate the biomass, with a drain of liquids; a sterilizer is connected to the culture tank and the associated filters; a microprocessor with instructions to control the variables of the process, which is connected to a user interface; and connections to a water source, electric power source, drain of liquids, and to Internet and servers with AI. Procedure for the continuous production at home of biomass using said device.
DESALINATION SYSTEM
A heating system for use in the solar powered heating of water. In one embodiment, the heating system is used in conjunction with a solar water farm to desalinate water. The water farm can be utilized on a variety of scales and can be applied to agricultural farms for large scale reclamation of deserts.
APPARATUS, SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR MANAGEMENT OF RAW WATER AND EMISSIONS UTILIZING HEAT AND/OR PRESSURE ENERGY WITHIN COMBUSTION GAS SOURCES
The invention relates to methods, systems and apparatus for distributed management of raw water and internal combustion engine (ICE) gas emissions generated during industrial operations. One aspect of the invention at least partially utilizes a hot gas air knife to increase or partially increase surface area between a raw water and a hot gas in order to vaporize a proportion of the aqueous phase of the raw water and concentrate contaminants within a residual raw water concentrate. The water vapor generated by the vaporization process may be demisted, discharged directly to the atmosphere or alternatively condensed and captured for use. Another aspect relates to how the liquids and gasses interact to continuously flush the surfaces of the system which may help mitigate scaling issues. The invention may help facilitate rapid transfer of ICE combustion gas particulate and ICE combustion gas chemicals onto and into the raw water as it concentrates.
WASTE WATER MANAGEMENT
A system includes a first separator configured to receive waste water, retain a first portion of the waste water, and separate the first portion of the waste water into a first vapor and a first solid material; and a second separator in fluid communication with the first separator, the second separator being configured to receive a second portion of the waste water from the first separator and to separate the second portion of the waste water into a second vapor and a second solid material, the second separator including a first condenser, a heating element, and a first electrocoagulation unit. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.

Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are destroyed by oxidation in supercritical conditions. PFAS in water can be concentrated and prepared for destruction in a pretreatment phase. Following annihilation of the PFAS in supercritical conditions to levels below 5 parts per trillion (ppt), the water effluent can be used to recover heat, returned to sub-critical conditions, and then released back into the environment.
