A method of monitoring the daily operating performance parameters for water treatment processes through the collection of localized data. The data is manipulated to generate preconfigured performance, maintenance, and quality assurance reports and further provide automatic submission of data as required for regulatory review of certain water treatment systems such as potable water treatment. The data is collected from sensors located at an equipment site and transferred to a remote computer located by use of the Internet, further all data received and used for generation of reports is also accessible by Internet connection and be delivered directly to the regulatory agency without additional process.

A novel deionization filter for removing ions from a coolant in an electric fuel cell vehicle cooling system is disclosed. The deionization filter includes a filter housing having a coolant inlet port, through which the coolant enters the filter housing; and a coolant outlet port, through which the coolant exits the filter housing. An ion exchange bed having positively-charged and negatively-charged ion exchange resin beads is provided in the filter housing for removing negative and positive ions, respectively, from the coolant. At least one filter assembly is typically provided in the filter housing for filtering particles from the coolant.

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.

The invention discloses an ion exchange treatment technology of wastewater containing hexavalent chromium, the ion exchange treatment technology combines the regulation of pH value of the wastewater, the absorption, the regeneration, the maintenance and the recovery of Cr<6+> ions, thereby realizing the automatic treatment of the Cr<6+> ions in the wastewater containing the chromium; the technology of the invention has high degree of automation and good treatment effect and can be applied in the large-scale water treatment; chromium removing columns are designed to three columns or multiple columns, intermediate tanks which can regulate the pH value are arranged among various ion exchange columns, when two columns or multiple columns are connected in series for working, the pH value can be regulated during the intermediate process, thereby ensuring the wastewater treatment effect to be better and being capable of overcoming the problem that the pH is changed due to the change of the concentration of the ions during the conventional ion exchange process, thereby causing the decrease of the absorption ability of the ions by the resin; the outlet water quality can stably maintain the Cr<6+> to be less than 0.5mg/L; ion exchange resin can be effectively maintained and be stably worked for a long time; regenerated liquid can be recovered, thereby saving resources.

A material for purification of a semiconductor polishing slurry that without changing of pH value, is capable of efficiently purifying a polishing slurry to thereby not only prevent metal contamination of a polished object as effectively as possible but also achieve recycling of a polishing slurry without any problem; a relevant module for purification of a semiconductor polishing slurry; and a process for purifying a semiconductor polishing slurry with the use thereof. In particular, a material for purification of a semiconductor polishing slurry characterized in that it comprises a fibrous substrate having a functional group capable of forming a metal chelate or such a functional group together with hydroxyl fixed onto at least the surface thereof. This material for purification of a semiconductor polishing slurry is, for example, used in such a manner that it is inserted in a container fitted with polishing slurry inflow port and outflow port while ensuring passage of polishing slurry flow.

The invention provides a water softening device and its regeneration controlling method capable of detecting the hardness of the supply water to be softened with the large of time and controlling regeneration timing based on the detected value. The water softening device is provided with an inlet water hardness measuring means 10 for measuring the hardness of supply water to the water softener 1, a treated water quantity measuring means 11 for measuring the flow rate of treated water after passing through the water softener 1, a salt water concentration detecting means 8 for detecting the salt water concentration at regeneration and a salt water consumption detecting means 9 for detecting the salt water consumption at regeneration. Further, a hardness overlooking detecting means 12 which measures the hardness of water which passed through the water softener 1 and detects the overlooking of hardness is provided.

A chemical distribution system having improved organic solvent fluid purity and consistency includes a vessel containing ion-exchange media positioned within a fluid flow pathway such that the organic solvent fluid passes through the ion-exchange media, thereby effecting removal of undesired impurities. Different embodiments of the invention position the vessel at varying locations within the fluid flow pathway. The chemical distribution system also preferably includes a return chemical flow pathway that recirculates purified organic solvent fluid through the ion-exchange media-containing vessel and thereby enables the system operator to conduct incremental adjustment of the solvent purity until a desired overall purity is attained.

A sensor assembly for a water softening system and includes a first treatment tank having a first valve assembly, a first flow meter and a sensor probe, a second treatment tank having a second valve assembly and a second flow meter and a brine tank independently connected to each of the first treatment tank and the second treatment tank. A controller is configured for communicating with the sensor probe and the first flow meter in the first treatment tank, and the second flow meter in the second treatment tank.

Methods and systems for acid regeneration of ion exchange resins are disclosed. Acid resins designed for use in a variety of cleaning application using a water source use a treated, softened, acidic water source according to the invention. Various methods of using the softened acidic water generated by acid regenerate-able ion exchange resins are disclosed to beneficially reduce spotting, filming and scale buildup on treated surfaces, reduce and/or eliminate the need for polymers, threshold reagents and/or rinse aids, and using protons generated in the acidic water effluent for triggering events useful in various cleaning applications.
