WATER TREATMENT `BATTELLE` Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS), otherwise known as [forever chemicals", are one of the biggest challenges facing the water sector. These harmful chemicals that do not break down and only accumulate over time are fast becoming a major issue for governments, with treatment solutions often ahead of regulations. In 2021, the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) i
Is India running out of water?
Is India running out of water? India is home to 18 per cent of the world's population yet only has access to four per cent of the global freshwater sources. On top of this, 30 per cent of the districts in India have reported that these freshwater sources are being overexploited as groundwater levels continue to decline. [Through our GENius technology, we are fully geared to cater to the increasing indu
Novel platform purifies oil-contaminated seawater
The United Nations' most recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report paints a bleak picture for the world's water supply: Of the 7.8 billion people on Earth, about 4 billion do not have access to sufficiently clean water for at least a month every year. While several water purification schemes have been proposed, they consistently fail at some critical point-typically, they are n
Benton Harbor, Michigan, Under Investigation For Handling Of Lead-Contaminated Drinking Water
Michigan is once again being investigated for its response or lack thereof to drinking water contamination in one of its most underserved communities, years after a similar saga played out in Flint. [Federal auditors announced an investigation - of how the government has dealt with lead contamination of drinking water in Benton Harbor, an impoverished, mostly Black city in southwest Michigan," the Northwest Arkansas Democrat Gazette reported. [The probe by the Environmental Protection Agency`s inspector general f

With Russia Targeting West, U.S. Water Systems On High Alert
With a geopolitical crisis playing out thousands of miles away, the drinking water sector in the U.S. has doubled its resolve against potential attacks against their digital systems. [Today water utilities across the country are girding for online attacks and misinformation campaigns that could lead to drinking water contamination, service disruptions and demands for ransom," according to E&E News. [Top White House officials warned U.S. companies to brace for possible cyberattacks - specifically mentioning th
Researchers develop technology to remove hormones from drinking water
At the Center for Research and Assistance in Technology and Design of the State of Jalisco (CIATEJ) at the east of Mexico, an oxidation process has been developed that uses ozone to degrade contaminants in water that alter the synthesis, transport, action or elimination of natural hormones.
Sieving ions with a polymer membrane
The biological nervous system works by selective transport of electrically charged particles called ions through cell membranes. If manufactured membranes were able to achieve a similar ion selectivity, it could transform many technologies, including water purification, mineral extraction and energy storage. "Achieving precise ion separation at the sub-nanometer level by polymer membranes is very challenging" says chemical engineer Zhiping Lai.
A naturally inspired, reusable system that purifies water and builds itself
In nature, the interaction of molecules at the boundary of different liquids can give rise to new structures. These self-assembling molecules make cell formation possible and are instrumental to the development of all life on Earth. They can also be engineered to perform specific functions-and now, a team of Penn State researchers has leveraged this opportunity to develop a material that could remove persistent pollutants from water. The researchers recently published their findings in Advanced Functional Materia
Low-cost solar-powered water filter removes lead, other contaminants
A new invention that uses sunlight to drive water purification could help solve the problem of providing clean water off the grid.The device resembles a large sponge that soaks up water but leaves contaminants-like lead, oil and pathogens-behind. To collect the purified water from the sponge, one simply places it in sunlight. The researchers described the device in a paper published this week in the journal Advanced Materials. The inspiration for the device came from the pufferfish, a species that takes in water
Standard water treatment technique removes and inactivates an enveloped virus
Enveloped viruses have been detected in raw sewage and sludge, but scientists still don't fully understand the fate and infectivity of these viruses during water purification at treatment plants. Now, researchers reporting in ACS' Environmental Science & Technology have discovered that a standard water treatment technique, called iron (III) coagulation, and its electrically driven counterpart, iron (0) electrocoagulation, can efficiently remove and inactivate a model enveloped virus.
A balancing act: Improved water treatment technique using 'energy matching'
Today, a large number of people worldwide suffer from shortage of fresh drinking water, especially in remote rural regions, causing a significant threat to human life and society. While techniques such as membrane distillation and reverse osmosis have been used to treat saline water and alleviate the situation, they suffer from limitations like low productivity, high cost and high energy consumption.
Protein pores packed in polymers make super-efficient filtration membranes
A multidisciplinary team of engineers and scientists has developed a new class of filtration membranes for a variety of applications, from water purification to small-molecule separations to contaminant-removal processes, that are faster to produce and higher performing than current technology. This could reduce energy consumption, operational costs and production time in industrial separations. Led by Manish Kumar, associate professor in the Cockrell School of Engineering at The University of Texas at Austin, th
New membrane technology to boost water purification and energy storage
Imperial College London scientists have created a new type of membrane that could improve water purification and battery energy storage efforts. The new approach to ion exchange membrane design, which is published today in Nature Materials, uses low-cost plastic membranes with many tiny hydrophilic ('water attracting') pores. They improve on current technology that is more expensive and difficult to apply practically. Current ion exchange membranes, known as Naf
Use of nanopores could lead to cleaner water
Not all nanopores are created equal. For starters, their diameters vary between 1 and 10 nanometers (nm). The smallest of these nanopores, called Single Digit Nanopores (SDNs), have diameters of less than 10 nm and only recently have been used in experiments for precision transport measurements. A team of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL) scientists and colleagues from seven other institutions, led by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT),
New type of membrane permits cheaper and more efficient water purification
New selective membranes in the form of thin hollow straws can improve water purification. This emerges from research by Joris de Gooth from UT's MESA+ research institute. The membranes that De Grooth jointly developed make it possible to purify water in a single process step, while preliminary treatment is always required in existing water treatment plants. The most important benefits of the new membranes are that they can make the provision of drinking water easier and therefore cheaper and can improve the removal of micropollutants such as pharmaceutical residue
FAQ:About Water Distributor Of FRP Tank
Water distributor of FRP Tank is a device that distributes water evenly according to the law on a certain working area and completes this task, which is called water distributor. Common water distributors include perforated pipe, nozzle, filter head and rotary water distributor. For example, the water distributor in the sand filter is composed of main pipe, branch pipe and water distribution hole. Many small h
