Abstract:
The present invention relates to a process and a system for processing waste water containing organic compounds. The system includes a UV/ozone oxidation removal module, or one or more removal modules connected in series whereas such a serial connection can be continuous or discontinuous. A UV/ozone oxidation removal module mainly includes an ozone generator, an ozone injector, an ozone dissolution tank, an ozone decomposition device, a UV reaction tank, a recycling pipeline. The efficiency of the UV/ozone oxidation removal module is controlled by the recycling ratio, the ozone concentration, and the intensity of UV light.
Abstract:
The present invention includes a horizontal foam fractionation protein skimmer for removing organic waste material (dissolved organic compounds) from organic loaded water. The protein skimmer includes a horizontal reaction chamber connected to a foam collection chamber in which protein-loaded foam containing organic waste material is collected. The reaction chamber is comprised of a series of horizontally-directed, nested, concentric tubes for increasing the number and decreasing the size of bubbles to facilitate efficient removal of dissolved organic compounds. Each horizontal tube has either one or several small openings that are offset from the openings on the adjacent tube at a small angle, typically 10°. The openings are formed by either a single slit that runs along the length of each tube, or by a series of holes that runs along the length of each tube. Organic-loaded water is pumped through tubing into the reaction chamber. As water moves through the tubing, gas (e.g., air) is drawn in by eductors, creating a gas/water mixture. The gas/water mixture is distributed into the horizontal reaction chamber through a lateral manifold that tangentially injects the gas/water mixture at approximately equidistant points along the length of the reaction chamber. The gas/water mixture enters the largest of the nested horizontal tubes and is forced through the small opening(s) into the next smaller diameter tube.Water travels circumferentially through adjacent tubes in a counter-current movement. The most central concentric tube carries the water out of the reaction chamber into the foam collection chamber. The water left behind is considerably more pure and free of contaminates and exits through tubing in the bottom of the foam collection chamber. The horizontal protein skimmer of the present invention is sectioned into individual components that facilitate transport and on-site assembly.
Abstract:
A self-contained, portable water purification system, including (a) an ozone supply, (b) an ozone contact chamber for mixing a contaminated or potentially contaminated water stream with ozone generated by such ozone supply, (c) an ozone destruction unit for destructing ozone contained in the water stream and converting said water stream into an oxygen-rich and ozone-depleted water stream, and (d) a downstream biologically active carbon filter, for receiving such oxygen-rich and ozone-depleted water stream and biologically destructing at least a portion of contaminants contained therein.
Abstract:
Apparatus for injecting ozone into the return line of a filtration system used in conjunction with a tank of water incorporates a check valve in a suction line for an ozone generator providing the ozone. Flow of water through the conduit providing ozone from the ozone generator is precluded by the check valve establishing a pressure environment within the conduit to prevent the flow of water from reaching the ozone generator. As the check valve is in an atmospheric environment, it is unlikely to deteriorate or be damaged by the air flowing therethrough into the ozone generator and its integrity is preserved.
Abstract:
A UV-assisted advanced-ozonation water treatment system comprises a water treating tank 1, an ozonic water tank 2, an ozonized gas generator 3, and a UV light source 4 disposed in the water treating tank 1 and having a UV-radiating surface 4a, and an ozonic water jetting device including jetting nozzles 5 for jetting the ozonic water onto the UV-radiating surface of the UV light source. An ozonized gas diffusing device 12 is placed in the ozonic water tank 2. An ozonized gas generated by the ozonized gas generator 3 and compressed by a compressor 13 at a pressure in the range of about 2 to about 3 kg/cm2 is diffused into the ozonic water tank 2 by the ozonized gas diffusing device 12. A high-pressure, a high-ozone-concentration ozonic water produced in the ozonized water tank 2 is jetted through the jetting nozzles 5 onto the UV-radiating surface 4a.

Abstract:
The present invention involves a purification system for water which utilizes repetitive ozone impregnation of the water to create a higher level of ozone for purification and/or sterilization purposes. The system may utilize a water softener and/or reverse osmosis system to remove minerals from the water supplied by a water supplier such as a municipality. Alternatively, demineralized water may be supplied directly to the system. The system includes a pump which receives the water and pumps the water into an expansion tank. From the expansion tank, the water flows through an ozone impregnation device in which the water receives the ozone. After impregnation, water flows into a holding tank. The pump is also in communication with an external demand source such that if ozone impregnated water is needed, water flows back to the pump and is diverted to the source. If no demand sensed, water flows back to the pump and is recycled so that the water is re-impregnated with ozone.
Abstract:
An apparatus for supplying deozonized ozone sterilized water includes a first UV lamp unit received in an ozone-containing gas generating member to irradiate oxygen-containing gas flowing through the gas generating member to produce ozone-containing gas. The ozone-containing gas is entrained in water flowing in a water supplying conduit for sterilizing the water. A cooling system can cool the gas generating member during the UV radiation for maintaining the ozone concentration entrained in the water. The ozone sterilized water in the conduit is deozonized by a second UV lamp unit.

System and apparatus to accelerate solution of gas into liquid. The system includes an aspirating injector to bring the gas into the pressurized system, a collider, a reactor, and an optional gas/liquid separator. The collider and reactor provide for prompt renewal of the interface in the bubble with the liquid as the consequence of abrupt changes of direction of flow.

An embodiment of the instant invention is an apparatus for diffusing a first substance into a second substance. The apparatus includes a first region where the first substance and the second substance flow in substantially the same direction; and a second region where the first substance and the second substance flow in substantially opposite directions. Preferably, the apparatus is arranged as an outer structure which encompasses the first region and the second region, and which is formed of PP, PTFE, PFA, ECTFE, PVDF, PE, PMMA, ABS, PC, PSO, PES, PEI, PBT, PPS, PEEK, PETG, Keelf, quartz, or any combination thereof. The first substance is, preferably, a substance selected from the group consisting of: ozone, ammonia, HCl, or any combination thereof, and the second substance is a substance selected from the group consisting of: DIW, ammonia, HCl, HF, peroxide, sulfuric acid, or any combination thereof.
Abstract:
An apparatus and method for sterilizing and chilling animal carcasses is provided comprising a tank for holding water, a means for cooling water in the tank, piping for carrying contaminated water out of the tank, a means for injecting ozone into the water of the apparatus, a means for purifying contaminated water in the piping, piping for returning purified water back to the tank and a means for decomposing gaseous ozone which escapes from the water in the tank before the gas is liberated into the atmosphere. The ozone destroys all forms of harmful microorganisms in the carcasses and the water. Because the water of the system is sterilized it can be disposed of easily.
