Abstract: A process of separating water from ambient air involves a liquid desiccant to first withdraw water from air and treatment of the liquid desiccant to produce water and regenerated desiccant. Water lean air is released to the atmosphere. Heat generated in the process is recycled. The drying capacity, or volume of water produced, of the system for a given energy input is favored over the production of dried air.

Abstract: A method for treating a liquid comprising water with a gas comprising ozone comprises introducing the liquid to be treated into a treatment vessel, introducing the gas to treat the liquid into the treatment vessel and treating the liquid in the treatment vessel, pressurizing the treatment vessel and, using the pressure in the treatment vessel to dispense the treated liquid from the treatment vessel through a filter. An apparatus for treating the liquid is also disclosed.

Abstract: A method for treating a liquid comprising the steps of introducing a gas to treat the liquid into a sealed vessel; increasing the pressure in the vessel to promote the dissolution of the gas into the liquid; and either releasing the pressure after the pressure in the vessel reaches a predetermined level or monitoring the treatment of the liquid and releasing the pressure after the treatment of the liquid in the vessel reaches a predetermined level. An apparatus for use with this method is also disclosed.

Abstract: An apparatus for the purification of water contaminated by micro-organisms and chemicals by means of a three stage process is taught. The apparatus consists of a prefiltration stage, an ozonation stage, and a post filtration stage. The contaminated water is initially drawn from a reservoir through a filter through a bed consisting of a porous media, calcium bentonite, zeolite, activated carbon and a second porous media. The filtered water is then passed into a ozonation chamber wherein gaseous ozone is introduced so as to oxidize contaminants. The reduction/oxidation condition in the ozonation chamber serve to control the cycle time. Once the water is disinfected it is passed through a second filter consisting of a porous media and activated carbon before being dispensed into a clean water carafe.
