An apparatus for filtering and mineralizing a fluid. The apparatus includes an amount of contaminated fluid located in a reservoir and a cartridge that is located downstream from the reservoir and in fluid communication with it. A filter is in fluid communication with the reservoir and the cartridge. The contaminated fluid is pumped along a pathway from the reservoir to the cartridge so that the contaminated fluid moves through the filter to generate filtered fluid in the cartridge. A pre-determined amount of an additive is associated with the cartridge for adding to the filtered fluid to generate a final fluid with the amount of the additive material.

A method for modifying the flow capabilities of an existing tangential flow filtration (TFF) system is contemplated in which the processing capabilities of the existing static TFF system may be increased without requiring the addition of additional systems running in parallel. This may be achieved via adjusting or replacing certain of the components of the TFF skid to accommodate a tubing set having a larger (or smaller) internal diameter than the existing tubing set or the tubing set for which the TFF system was originally manufactured. In this fashion, it may be seen that an existing skid may have its flow capabilities dramatically increased. It is further contemplated that a retrofit kit for an existing TFF system for use according to the described method may be provided.

The disclosure provides a bifunctional composite membrane, a preparation method and use thereof, and a method for removing a plasticizer in liquor. The bifunctional composite membrane includes a supporting membrane and a dense layer which covers a surface of the supporting membrane, wherein the supporting membrane includes a filtering membrane and an adsorbent, and the adsorbent is dispersed in a pore structure of the filtering membrane.

There is provided a retrofit control module that is connectable to various types of reverse osmosis systems, and a method of using the same. The retrofit control module includes a controller, the controller being located within a housing. The controller includes a first communication interface, the first communication interface being connectable to the reverse osmosis system, a processing unit and a memory connected to the processing unit. The processing unit is configured for receiving at least one parameter of the reverse osmosis system, comparing the at least one parameter of the reverse osmosis system with a predetermined threshold and in response to the at least one parameter of the reverse osmosis system being above the predetermined threshold: transmitting a control parameter to the reverse osmosis system, the control parameter causing the reverse osmosis system to control at least one component of the reverse osmosis system.

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.
