Benefits of technology

The patent describes a new type of UV tube that can kill microorganisms by exposing them to a lethal dose of UV radiation. The tube is designed to be long-lasting, easy to make, and can be used in a variety of environments. The technical effects of this invention are improved sanitation and a more effective way to kill harmful microorganisms.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patent text is the need for a non-chemical microorganism sterilization process that can kill or deactivate viruses, bacteria, fungi, and spores in water supplies, such as sewage and water supplies, without leaving any harmful chemicals in the environment. The process should be economical, scalable, and able to operate in highly polluted environments.

Embodiment Construction

Referring to the drawings more particularly by reference numbers, number 20 in FIG. 1 refers to a water treatment system for producing drinking water from a affluent input 22 of water of an unknown pollution level. In the system 20 the input 22 may be everything to questionably potable water to a combination of raw sewage and pond scum. Therefore, the input 22 is passed through a particulate filter 24 to remove larger solids primarily to keep them from clogging the flow passages within the system 20. This separates the solids 26 from the water flow. Filter 24 can be any of a number of commercially available filters including a Crane model 1-09-450 filter.

Many input water streams are polluted with other than organic contaminants. Therefore, means such a heavy metals filter or other devices commonly used to remove inorganic contaminants is provided. The output flow 30 from the heavy metals filter 28 provides the input to the organic decontamination portion of the system 20.

The flow 30...

Abstract

A system for reducing biological organisms in a liquid effluent to non-viable organic molecules that includes: a stunning chamber that applies a voltage potential across biological organisms to break cell membranes and disable the defense mechanisms of vital organisms to ultraviolet radiation; a cavitation chamber to physically destroy any remaining membranes of biologicals in the effluent that may play host to vital organisms or allow such to hide therein, the action of the stunning and cavitation chambers releasing interferons; and a molecularly implanted stimulated emitter (MISE) chamber in which high levels of ultraviolet radiation are applied to virions and spores that remain at frequencies that are readily absorbed and operate to disassociate any viable DNA and RNA strands remaining, to thereby cause "death". Prior to the stunning chamber, preferably the effluent has any large solids therein, settled, floated or filtered out. When potable water is to be produced, heavy metals and other common inorganic contaminants are also removed. The resulting effluent is pulsed through the stunning, cavitation, and MISE chambers to gain maximum effect thereof. Once the DNA and RNA strands have been disassociated in the MISE chamber, the environment of the downstream flow is controlled to prevent reassociation of organic molecules into viable DNA or RNA strands by either diluting the output of the MISE chamber to such an extent that organic molecules are unlikely to recombine, or when drinking water is to be produced, by filtering the organic filtering the organic molecules out for cosmetic purposes.
