摘要:
A device for enabling controlled movement of ions between a first ion-containing fluid and second ion-containing fluid comprises at least one cationic exchange membrane positioned between the first and second ion-containing fluids, and at least one anionic exchange membrane in parallel with the at least one cationic exchange membrane positioned between the first and second ion-containing fluids. The one or more of the at least one cationic exchange membrane and the at least one anionic exchange membrane is a membrane electrode assembly comprising an ion exchange membrane, and one or more permeable electrodes embedded within the ionic exchange membrane. The number of cationic exchange membranes and the number of anionic exchange membranes is the same, and the ions move through the membrane electrode assembly in response to a variable capacitive charge.

Disclosed herein is a process for carrying out an ion exchange process which involves providing two interacting sets of banks of continuously stirred tank reactors (CSTR's) each containing a bed of ion exchange resin and causing the resin to move in one direction through each bank of reactors and the feed solution and/or or eluant in the opposite direction. In carrying out the process, a feed solution is introduced in a first reactor causing dissolved ions to be captured on the resin, eluant is introduced into a reactor upstream of the first reactor in the direction of resin movement causing ions captured on the resin to be removed into the eluant and eluant rich in ions removed from the resin will be taken from a reactor upstream of the reactor in which the eluant was introduced, for further processing. Thus, in this form of the invention there is, in effect, a loading bank of reactors in which ions from the feed solution are captured followed by a regenerating bank of reactors in which the eluant removes the ions captured on the resin and regenerates the resin.

The present invention relates to a method for treatment and/or purification of water, in particular wastewater or drinking water, preferably for the adsorptive removal of inorganically or organically-based, impurities, such as trace substances and/or micropollutants, wherein, in a counterflow filter device, e.g. a counterflow adsorption filter column, the water that is to be treated and/or that is to be purified firstly, and, secondly, an, in particular particulate, adsorption material are conducted in a counterflow direction. In particular, a procedure is followed in such a manner that the water to be treated and/or purified is passed through a bed of the adsorption material present in the counterflow filter device for the adsorptive removal of impurities and the bed is exchanged and regenerated by preferably continuous removal and supply of the adsorption material in counterflow to the water that is to be treated and/or that is to be purified.

Disclosed is an internal circulation resin ion exchange adsorption reactor with a mechanical stirrer. The upper part ⅔˜⅘ of the reactor main body is an open cylinder and the lower part ⅕˜⅓ is a cone-shaped body with a slope of 30°±10°. A bell-jar shaped reaction slot with a turbine water stirrer inside is located in the center of the reactor main body. The reactor main body is equipped with a cylindrical guide plate. A water collection weir, an inclined tube separator and an annular resin collection hopper are located between the shell of the reactor main body and the guide plate. The reactor is equipped with a water inlet pipe and a water outlet pipe. A resin removal pipe is connected with the annular resin collection hopper and a resin desorption slot respectively, and a regenerated resin reflux pipe is connected to the bell-jar shaped reaction slot.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for separating purifying media from a treated fluid. The method includes transporting the purifying media and the treated fluid along a substantially horizontal direction while a substantial quantity of purifying media fall along a substantially vertical direction relative to the treated fluid to generate a concentration of purifying media below the treated fluid. The falling purifying media are collected while releasing the treated fluid so as to separate the purifying media from the treated fluid.
摘要:
A continuous Liquid-Solids Circulating Fluidized Bed (LSCFB) preferably for use as an ion exchanger consists of two fluidized bed columns, a fluidized bed adsorber (downer) operating in conventional fluidized bed mode for adsorption of ions of interest and a fluidized bed riser for desorption of ions (operating as a riser fluidized bed) to provide regenerated particles. Ion exchange particles circulate continuously between the riser and the downer i.e. the particles that have adsorbed ions in the absorber pass from the adsorber (downer) to the desorber where they are regenerated and the so regenerated particles are return to the adsorber near the top of the adsorber column. The LSCFB can be used in processes for continuous recovery of the ions of interest.

A fluidized bed chromatographic process for purification and binding of molecules in a liquid by binding the molecules to an active substance covalently bound to chromatographic adsorbent particles in which process a fluidized bed of the adsorbent particles is formed and said liquid is passed through the fluidized bed, wherein the chromatographic adsorbent particles are formed of a porous composite material having pores allowing access to the interior of the composite material by the molecules, and the porous composite material includes: (i) density controlling particles which are either (a) hollow low density particles which are impermeable to the liquid and have a density providing floatation of the adsorbent particles in the liquid or, (b) high density particles having a density providing sedimentation of the adsorbent particles in the liquid; (ii) a matrix formed by consolidating at least one conglomerating agent selected from the group consisting of natural and synthetic organic monomers and polymers; and (iii) an active substance for binding molecules in the liquid; the density controlling particles being embedded in the matrix, and the active substance being covalently bound to the matrix; wherein;the adsorbent particles have a relative density with respect to the liquid which is less than 0.95 or greater than 1.1 and a particle size within the range of 50-750 .mu.m, and each of the relative density and particle size range of the adsorbent particles is selected to provide desired floatation/sedimentation properties of the adsorbent particles in the liquid in the fluidized bed process with substantially no turbulence.
