Abstract: A cartridge filter element of known degree of filtration is the central part of the meter for monitoring water quality with respect to suspended particles. Typically the holder of the filter element is located in a sampling line which is at a point downstream of the commercial primary filter being monitored. Sensors of rate and differential pressure send signals to the microprocessor of the meter which measures the transmissibility of the monitor cartridge filter. Thus the microprocessor calculations determine the quality of the commercial primary filter effluent. Also microprocessor logic manipulates the steps of the meter and sends signals to display, controls and alarms depending on the water quality observed. A tangible additional benefit of this meter in comparison to an optical turbidity meter is the identification of the composition of the solids. The flushing step reveals the response of the monitor filter to solids removal by flushing agent or agents. This can help with full scale design of chemical treatment of injection wells which have been inadvertently damaged by solids.

Abstract: A system and method for reducing the amount of caffeine in an existing volume of brewed coffee. The brewed coffee contains a predetermined level of caffeine. To reduce the caffeine, a caffeine filter is provided. Furthermore, a coffee receptacle is provided to hold the decaffeinated coffee. A filter chamber is positioned over the coffee receptacle. The caffeine filter is placed in the filter chamber. Brewed coffee is dripped, poured, or otherwise advanced into the filter chamber. At least some of the brewed coffee flows through the caffeine filter and into the coffee receptacle. This reduces the level of caffeine of the filtered coffee entering the coffee receptacle. The system also enables a single source of brewed coffee to produce cups of both regular coffee and decaffeinated coffee, using only one type of regular ground coffee.

Abstract translation: 用于减少现有量的冲泡咖啡中的咖啡因量的系统和方法。 酿造的咖啡含有预定水平的咖啡因。 为了减少咖啡因，提供了咖啡因过滤器。 此外，提供咖啡容器以容纳脱咖啡因的咖啡。 过滤室位于咖啡容器的上方。 咖啡因过滤器放置在过滤室中。 冲泡咖啡，倒入或以其他方式进入过滤室。 至少一些煮过的咖啡流过咖啡因过滤器并进入咖啡容器。 这降低了进入咖啡容器的经过滤咖啡的咖啡因的水平。 该系统还可以使用单一的冲泡咖啡来生产常规咖啡和脱咖啡因咖啡，只使用一种常规咖啡。
