Patents by Inventor Remembrance Newcombe

Remembrance Newcombe has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9670082
    Abstract: The described implementations relate to water denitrification. One method obtains nitrate levels in influent and effluent of a moving bed media filter and determines carbon levels in the effluent. The method also doses carbon feedstock into the influent based on both the nitrate levels and the carbon levels.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: June 6, 2017
    Assignee: Nexom (US), Inc.

  • Publication number: 20130341278
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a reactive filtration method includes continuously regenerating a reactive filter media while simultaneously filtering contaminants from fluid flowing through the filter media. In one embodiment, regenerating the reactive filter media comprises mixing metal granules with the filter media and agitating the mixture. In another embodiment, regenerating the reactive filter media comprises introducing a metal in the fluid flowing through the filter media and agitating the filter media. In one embodiment, a method for removing phosphorus, arsenic or a heavy metal from water includes introducing a metal salt reagent into the water at a molar ratio of 5:1 to 200:1 to the phosphorous or the arsenic in the water and passing the water through a bed of moving sand.

  • Patent number: 8080163
    Abstract: Exemplary systems and methods for treating contaminated water are described. In one instance a method supplies metal salt reagents to a moving media filter in the presence of contaminated water. The method also introduces a waste stream resulting from the moving media filter upstream of the moving media filter effective to lower an average contaminant concentration of effluent water from the moving media filter.

  • Patent number: 8071055
    Abstract: Exemplary systems and techniques for treating contaminated water are described. In one instance a plant or system includes a membrane filtration mechanism operable to receive an influent water stream containing a contaminant and to separate at least a first portion of the contaminant from a resulting first effluent water stream. The system also includes a reactive filtration mechanism operable to receive the first effluent water stream and to remove a waste stream containing a second portion of the contaminant to produce a resultant second effluent stream.
