    Abstract: A filter medium is backwashed to cleanse it of cake when a fluid pressure difference across the filter medium rises to a predetermined degree. Since the pressure difference is subject to change not only with the amount of the cake but also with the temperature and flow rate of the fluid being filtered, not only the pressure difference but also at least either of the fluid temperature and flow rate is constantly monitored. A correction coefficient circuit is provided which has stored thereon pressure difference characteristics at various temperatures and/or flow rates of the fluid including a pressure difference at a rated temperature and/or rated flow rate. The correction coefficient circuit computes a correction coefficient by comparing the pressure difference characteristic at the monitored temperature and/or monitored flow rate of the fluid with the pressure difference characteristic at the rated temperature and/or rated flow rate of the fluid. A correction circuit corrects the monitored pressure difference by the correction coefficient in order to obtain a pressure difference at the rated temperature and/or rated flow rate. The filter medium is backwashed when the corrected pressure difference rises to a predetermined value.

    Abstract: In a system having a fluid filter that is automatically backwashed each time the differential pressure thereacross reaches a predetermined value, the desired base rate at which the drop across the filter should increase during its initial filtering sequence (i.e., before backwash) is determined and stored in digital format in a process controller along with a preset maximum differential pressure at which backwash is set to occur. During use of the filter the actual rate of change of the pressure drop thereacross is monitored continuously and compared with the rate that is stored in the controller. Whenever the actual rate of change of the pressure drop across the filter differs from the base rate, which is the usual case, the present backwashing pressure is automatically adjusted--usually downwardly. This reduction continues until the actual drop across the filter finally reaches the adjusted value of the preset backwashing pressure, at which time backwashing of the filter is automatically commenced. In a preferred embodiment, the adjustment is based upon the time differential at a given instant between the actual filter time and the desired or base curve time, and the difference is used to reduce the preset pressure in accordance with the inverse of the base curve rate. In another embodiment the difference between the actual differential pressure across a filter and the desired differential pressure at any instant is determined and subtracted from the preset backwashing pressure.

    Abstract: A liquid (2), such as wastewater, is filtered using a liquid-permeable filtering element (9) having first and second faces (10, 11) so as to produce filtered liquid (4) having total suspended solids of no more than 10 mg/L. The method comprises cycling the liquid-permeable filtering element through the liquid whereby, in a first position, an area of the first face of the filtering element is subjected to liquid under pressure and a pressure across the filtering element is greater than 0 and less than or equal to 5.9 kPa (60 cm H2O), and, in a second position, the area is not subjected to liquid under pressure or is subjected to liquid at a lower pressure, and solids accumulated on the first face of the filtering element can be removed by directing at least one jet at the second face of the filtering element through the filtering element towards the first face.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a carbon capture adapter that may attach to high air flow systems. A carbon capture adapter may utilize the air flow foundations of a high air flow system to allow for capture of unfiltered ambient air, allowing for carbon removal and the scrubbing of the unfiltered ambient air. The carbon capture adapter may comprise of carbon sensors that may detect carbon levels of the air before and after the carbon has been scrubbed or removed from the ambient air. The carbon capture adapter may capture and transform the carbon into secondary substances that may be useful unto itself, even further limiting waste and environmental damage. The carbon capture adapter will have all inputs, outputs, processes, and flows that meet all aspects of a closed loop system that is specifically designed for CCS.

    Abstract: Systems and methods determine a filter efficiency of a fluid filter. A characteristic of fluid flow of a fluid is monitored at a first point and at a second point on a flow path of a fluid filter. A particle absorption level of the fluid filter is determined that is a difference in the characteristic of the fluid flow at the first point and the second point. The particle absorption level of the fluid filter is at a particle absorption saturation level based on the difference in the characteristic of the fluid flow at the first point and the second point. The particle absorption saturation level is an indicator that the particles retained by the fluid filter is decreased and replacement of the fluid filter is required to increase the particles retained by the fluid filter to be above the particle absorption saturation level.
