  • Patent number: 10138141
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for blowing off gaseous contaminants from crude water in the production of drinking water, comprising the step of introducing the water to be treated to the top of a shielded aerator and letting it pass through stacks of tubular elements interspersed with perforated sheets, while subjected to counter current suction. In a second aspect a device is provided for blowing off gaseous contaminants from crude water according to said method.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 21, 2012
    Date of Patent: November 27, 2018
    Assignee: MICRODROP AQUA APS
    Inventors: Suni À Dalbø, Karsten E. Jensen, Finn Lebech, Idar Beck, Andreas Guldager, Peder Godsk Svejgaard

  • Patent number: 7947183
    Abstract: A method and a device for purifying water from contaminant trace species, especially arsenic, by co-precipitating trace species during oxidation and precipitation of iron compounds with subsequent separation. The co-precipitation is improved by contacting the water with an iron-containing material prior to oxidation to increase the iron content of the water. Arsenic and other trace species harmful to health may be removed from water effectively and in a simple manner, thus being able to comply with the more restrictive limits of arsenic in drinking water.
