Patent number: 7097753Abstract: The dilute support frame is made up of interphase longitude and latitude bars that preferably are hollow. The bars can be rectangular, rectangular with a rounded end, half-circular, triangular, polygonal or any combination thereof. The bars are sized to support the ion exchange resin in the dilute channel adjacent the concentrate membrane bag. The support frame also assures fluent water flow in the dilute channel. The support frames are arrayed on the membranes with interphase aisle to save the frame arrays and make water flow fluently. The membrane envelopes in turn with the support frames as both are preferably wound to form the cylinder module, and is covered by one plastic protecting net. This new type of support frame can assure fluent water flow in dilute channels and convenient resin filling.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2003Date of Patent: August 29, 2006Assignee: Zhejiang Omex Environmental Engineering Ltd.Inventors: Xiang Li, Gou-Lin Luo

Patent number: 7097752Abstract: The resin seepage-proof spiral would Electrodeionization (EDI) module includes anion and cation ion exchange membranes, concentrate and dilute distributing channels, net sheets inside of the channels, positive and negative electrodes and an EDI housing. The housing includes an insulation shell and covers. The multiple layers of anion and cation ion exchange membranes concentrate and dilute water distributing channels and net sheets are wound around a negative electrode pipe centered in the EDI module. The negative electrode pipe is arranged to collect concentrate water inside of the pipe. A circularity positive electrode is located outside the wound membranes and within the insulation shell, which is generally cylindrical in shape. Inside the cylindrical housing, the dilute water distributing channel is filled by ion exchange resin. The EDI module includes two inserts of multiple holed material layer, one on each end of the module.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2003Date of Patent: August 29, 2006Assignee: Zhejiang Omex Environmental Engineering, Ltd.Inventors: Xiang Li, Gou-Lin Luo

Patent number: 7029563Abstract: An EDI device includes a composite electrode enclosed within the cylinder shell of the device. The EDI inner module preferably has one concentrate center pipe as the electrode in the center axis and at least one layer of anion/cation exchange membranes and a support frame in concentrate/dilute chambers wound around the center pipe. The electrode plate is inside the encircled cylindrical shell (isolating vessel). It is connected to an electrical contact plate located in the shell. Either the anode or cathode can be set in the center pipe, and the other electrode can be set in the vessel or shell lining. The electrical contact plate also contacts an electrical contact reed located on the vessel cover when the cover is connected to the shell. The electrical contact plate provides a reliable conductive bridge between the contact reed and the electrode plate and thus passes DC from the contact reed to the electrode plate.Type: GrantFiled: July 30, 2003Date of Patent: April 18, 2006Assignee: Zhejiang Omex Environmental Engineering Ltd.Inventors: Xiang Li, Gou-Lin Luo

Patent number: 6190528Abstract: A helical electrodeionization apparatus is adapted to purify aqueous liquids to effect the production of high purity water. An insulated net-separating wall is positioned between a pair of anion and cation exchange membranes to form a special membrane bag type flow unit I, each flow unit I is linked up with a group of slots on the side walls of central pipe, and is rolled up to form cylinder structure which centers on central pipe as the helical axis, a conductive crust is formed by winding metal strip or wire outside the cylinder. Ion exchange resin is filled up between the adjacent membrane bags to form flow unit II. The present invention has less pressure drop and needs less power, and is suited to multiple-device series operation. Preferably, daily maintenance and renewal of the resin is convenient, and production cost is lower.Type: GrantFiled: March 12, 1999Date of Patent: February 20, 2001Inventors: Xiang Li, Gou-Lin Luo
