  • Patent number: 11820690
    Abstract: In a method for treating waste water containing ammonium salts, sodium sulfate crystal is obtained by freezing crystallization, then the pH value of the waste water is adjusted to a specific range, and next sodium chloride crystal and ammonia water is obtained by evaporation. Alternatively, the pH value of the waste water is adjusted to a specific range, then sodium chloride crystal and ammonia water is obtained by evaporation, and next sodium sulfate crystal is obtained by freezing crystallization. This method can recover ammonia, sodium sulfate, and sodium chloride from the waste water.

  • Patent number: 11572289
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods are related to treating waste water containing ammonium salts, which contains NH4+, SO42?, Cl?, and Na+. In such a method, the pH value of the waste water to be treated is adjusted to a specific range in advance; sodium sulfate crystal and relatively concentrated ammonia are obtained by first evaporation, and then sodium chloride crystal and relatively dilute ammonia is obtained by second evaporation; alternatively, sodium chloride crystal and relatively concentrated ammonia is obtained by third evaporation, and then sodium sulfate crystal and relatively dilute ammonia are obtained by fourth evaporation. Ammonia, sodium sulfate, and sodium chloride from the waste water are recovered so that the resources in the waste water can be reused.

  • Patent number: 10964982
    Abstract: A Rechargeable Metal-Air Battery Cell, a Battery Stack and Method of Manufacturing the Same A rechargeable metal-air battery cell, a battery stack and method of manufacturing the same are provided. The rechargeable metal-air battery cell includes a bipolar plate, an air cathode, a plenum frame and a metal anode. The bipolar plate defines a plurality of air channels. The air cathode abuts the bipolar plate such that the air cathode is in fluid communication with the air channels. The plenum frame includes a first major surface and a second major surface opposite the first major surface. The air cathode is adjacent the first major surface, and the metal anode is adjacent the second major surface of the plenum frame. The battery stack may include at least one rechargeable metal-air battery cell.
