Abstract: A device and system for purifying a fluid is provided. The system includes a tank having an interior space and a media container disposed within the interior space. A valve is provided that cooperates with an element within the interior, the valve being movable between an open and a closed position. The valve being biased to the open position when the element is not positioned within the interior space, wherein the interior space is fluidly coupled to the atmosphere in the open position. The valve further being configured to move to a closed position when the element is positioned within the interior space.

Abstract: A system is provided for managing data sets in a cloud processing and/or federated environment. In an embodiment, the system described herein may be used in connection with cloud processing of big data sets. The term “big data,” as used herein, may be generally defined to describe data sets so large and complex that they become difficult to work with using on-hand database management tools. The system described herein enables the persistent storage of semantic technology statements for big data sets for processing in a cloud processing and/or federated environment.
