Apparatus and method for filtering aqueous liquid
The invention relates to an apparatus for the filtration of aqueous liquid that is capable of effectively removing suspended particles from aqueous liquid during a prolonged period of time without clogging of the particulate filter media and associated pressure build-up. This filtration apparatus comprises: ⋅a filtration chamber comprising an inlet opening that is located near the bottom of the filtration chamber, and an outlet opening that is located near the top of the filtration chamber; ⋅a screen covering the outlet opening of the filtration chamber; ⋅a first dosing unit that is located upstream of the filtration chamber adapted to release water-soluble components into the stream of aqueous liquid that flows from the inlet to the filtration chamber; ⋅a particulate filter media that partially fills the interior of the filtration chamber; ⋅a flow regulator that regulates the flow rate of aqueous liquid through the filtration chamber and that can operate in a high flow rate mode or a reduced flow rate mode; ⋅a timer that controls the flow regulator; wherein the timer is programmed to alternatingly switch the flow regulator from the high flow rate mode to the reduced flow rate mode.
CHLORINATOR DEVICE, SYSTEM, AND METHOD
A chlorinator device for chlorinating water to a predetermined chlorination level with chlorine from a source of chlorine. The chlorinator device has an injector that creates a vacuum as water passes through the injector to draw chlorine from the source of chlorine into the injector and an adjustable chlorine flow meter positioned in fluid communication with and between the injector and the source of chlorine to adjust the flow rate of chlorine entering the injector to a predetermined rate.
Installation for the preparation of an aqueous solution comprising at least one earth alkali hydrogen carbonate
The present invention relates to an installation for the preparation of an aqueous solution comprising at least one earth alkali hydrogen carbonate, the use of the installation for the preparation of an aqueous solution comprising at least one earth alkali hydrogen carbonate as well as the use of the installation for the mineralization and/or stabilization of water.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR THE REMEDIATION OF AQUATIC FACILITIES
A method and system for the remediation of the water of an aquatic facility using an integrated process control system to control a mixed halogen-based treatment including chlorine dioxide and a free halogen. The integrated process control system provides versatile control the chlorine dioxide concentration using accelerated side-stream generation of chlorine dioxide. The remediation can occur continuously, and/or intermittently using a daily remediation cycle or a rapid recovery shock.
HYDROGEN WATER DISPENSER FOR REFRIGERATOR APPLIANCES
A system for infusing hydrogen into water dispensing from a refrigerator appliance includes a tank defining an interior volume no greater than one liter. An electrolysis system includes an anode and a cathode disposed within the interior volume of the tank. The anode and cathode are configured to decompose water within the interior volume of the tank when a voltage differential is applied across the anode and cathode during a hydrogen infusion cycle of the electrolysis system. An audio emitter is configured to emit an audio alert in response to completion of the hydrogen infusion cycle.
Spa/pool water treatment system and method
A mobile device reads a test strip to determine a chemical condition of a liquid or a user inputs a treatment plan into the mobile device. The mobile device transmits the determined chemical condition or the input treatment plan to a liquid treatment system which treats the fluid in response to the determined chemical condition or the input treatment plan.
