Integrated filtration and gas floatation water treatment system and process
A compact, portable system and process separates dissolved and suspended solids from water containing high levels of those solids. Gas flotation is used with and oxidant as an initial stage. The resulting foam is dewatered in a fluid conveyance, with the gas being recycled to the flotation column, the foam sent to a holding tank and the water passed through one of a number of filtration vessels having granular filter media. As at least one filtration vessel is kept in operation filtering, another filtration vessel can be backwashed when the flow therethrough is diminished of the fluid level inside rises. Treated water is used for backwashing and provided to a collection conduit.
Water treatment apparatus including underwater plasma discharge module
A water treatment apparatus including an underwater plasma discharge module is provided. The water treatment apparatus includes a dissolved air flotation device configured to remove foreign matter contained in water and an underwater plasma discharge module disposed at a preceding stage of the dissolved air flotation device and configured to cause a portion of the water to be introduced into the dissolved air flotation device to perform underwater plasma discharging, wherein the dissolved air flotation device comprises a mixing and coagulation basin configured to coagulate or flocculate the foreign matter contained in the water to form and grow flocs of the foreign matter, and a flotation basin configured to raise and remove the flocs by supplying microbubbles to the water passing through the mixing and coagulation basin.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR ZERO LIQUID DISCHARGE RECYCLING OF WASTE GENERATED FROM MANUFACTURING OPERATIONS
A method and system is provided for treating waste generated from manufacturing operations including at least one of Printed Circuit Boards Fabrication (PCB FAB), General Metal Finishing (GMF), semiconductors manufacturing, chemical milling, and Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD). The method and system are used to create zero liquid discharge recycling.
Laundry Wastewater Treatment Methods and Systems
Apparatus and systems for laundry wastewater treatment are provided. Generally, systems include one or more grinder pumps for receiving raw wastewater from laundry operations, a lint remover in fluid communication with the grinder pumps, a sediment filter in fluid communication with the lint remover, an ozone treatment chamber in fluid communication with the sediment filter, and a carbon filter. Methods can provide for continuous treatment of laundry wastewater that can be reused in laundry operations, or passed to a wastewater stream (such as sewage).

COOLING WATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS AND ASSOCIATED METHODS FOR USING THE SAME
A water cooling/recirculating management system, including: a controller; a fluid displacement pump; a centrifugal separator; a germicide generator; and a primary side stream magnetic field generator.
Portable Water Filtration Device
The disclosed technology includes a water filtration unit. A disclosed water filtration unit includes a filtration unit housing defining a filtration unit cavity; an inlet coupled to the filtration unit housing; a pump positioned at least partially within the filtration unit cavity and including a pump inlet and pump outlet, the pump inlet coupled to the inlet; a filter housing positioned at least partially within the filtration unit cavity and including a filter inlet and filter outlet, the filter inlet coupled to the pump outlet and filter outlet coupled to a water dispenser; and a power source in communication with the pump to power the pump to push water through the filter housing when the water filtration unit is coupled to a water source.
HYDRODYNAMIC CAVITATION SYSTEM FOR THE REMOVAL OF UNWANTED, TOXIC, OR CONTAMINATED ORGANIC AND INORGANIC COMPOUNDS
An advanced hydrodynamic cavitation system includes a housing, a first stator with angled ridges, a second stator that is circular with angled ridges, a rotor having rotor blades housed within the second stator, and a driveshaft, and is configured to work with a motor, a pump, and oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide or ozone to form free radicals. Hydrodynamic cavitation occurs (1) on the leading edge of the rotor blades; (2) in the constriction between the rotor blades, depending on the design; (3) in the gap between the first stator and the rotor blades; and (4) in the gap between the second stator and the rotor blades. The four cavitation regions may coalesce to become a steady-state supercavitation cloud that removes unwanted, toxic or contaminated organic and inorganic compounds, specifically with the ability to treat and decontaminate sludge, wastewater, ballast water, drinking water, harmful algal blooms, and biomedical waste.
