Described herein is a liquid filtration device is disclosed a vessel for treating an aqueous liquid, wherein the vessel contains a filtration medium and wherein the filtration medium comprises a metal sulfide, wherein the sulfur in the form of a metal sulfide is at least 0.5% by weight of the filtration media.
Abstract:
Described herein is a liquid filtration device is disclosed comprising a fluid conduit fluidly connecting a fluid inlet to a fluid outlet; and a water filtration medium disposed in the fluid conduit; the water filter medium comprising a metal-containing particulate, wherein the metal-containing particulate comprises a thermolysis product of a metal salt wherein the salt is selected from nitrogen-containing oxyanions, sulfur-containing anions, chlorides, phosphates, and combinations thereof; and methods of removing chloramines from aqueous solutions.
Abstract:
A composite block that includes activated carbon particles bonded to one another with a polymeric binder. The block includes a tortuous porous network extending through the block article, the tortuous porous network having a plurality of void spaces interspersed throughout the network with the majority of void spaces each having an average diameter greater than the average diameter of the remainder of the porous network. A filter incorporates the composite block as a part thereof. A process of making a composite block includes mixing activated carbon, polymeric binder and pore forming material to provide a moldable mixture; placing the moldable mixture in a mold cavity; heating the mold cavity and the moldable mixture to melt the polymeric binder; cooling the mold to re-solidify the polymeric binder to form the composite block; and removing the composite block from the mold cavity.
