Water conservation apparatus and methods of using same

Номер: US20120247563A1
Автор: Hein Werner Erdmann
Принадлежит: Individual

Disclosed herein are water conservation methods and apparatuses that comprise optionally directing drainage water from a sink by a valve to either a toilet storage tank or the sewer or septic system. The drainage water diverted to the toilet storage tank can then be recycled by being used to flush the toilet. The valve may be easily manipulated by a user to provide a convenient option to recycle water for flushing the toilet, a use that is currently a major factor in the overconsumption of water in a household.

Grey water is conveyed to a tank, passed through filters, and pumped to an irrigation system. A floating spray component is provided in the tank to automatically backwash the filters to prevent clogging, moving up and down as the level of water in the tank changes. The filters can be cylindrical and oriented vertically, and a removable, internal filter cartridge can mount the filters. The filters can be accessed through a top, above ground cap, and the carriage can be removed for access to other parts by removing a larger lid.

This specification describes systems for the treatment and reuse of grey water and related processes. An exemplary system collects grey water from baths and showers and treats it for use in toilet flushing. Influent bathing water passes through a prefilter to remove larger particles and flows into a grey water collection tank. Collected grey water is filtered through a membrane designed to remove suspended solids. Membrane permeate passes through a sorbent media to remove soluble organics and then flows into a permeate tank. A chemical agent is used to disinfect water in one or more parts of the system and optionally to clean the membranes. A control system manages the operation of system. The system operates in a generally daily cycle with permeation dispersed over a material time, for example 4 or 8 hours or more.

WATER STORAGE TANK STRUCTURE AND OPERATING METHOD FOR THE REVERSE OSMOSIS WATER PURIFYING SYSTEM

Автор: LEE SHIH PING
Принадлежит:

A water storage tank built for a reverse osmosis water purifying system deploys multi water flow passages of purified water and drainage water, allocated a soft bladder unit receiving purified water encompassed by the waste water in the tank. When the water tank unit is fully filled with water, the water pressure activates the auto-shut-off valve or solenoid valve to stop operation of the reverse osmosis water purifying system. When the dispensing faucet is turned on, the drainage water swells to squeeze the soft bladder unit to deliver the purified water out from the soft bladder unit to the dispensing faucet, and the drainage water flushes the reverse osmosis membrane as well. The technique enables the tank to take the least water pressure resistance to hold water and drain water which results in energy saving and water saving. 1.

This is accomplished using two separate devices working together; it is comprised of a valve assembly (FIG. 2 B), for diverting this rinse water to a collector and the collector ( 10 ) which improves the quality of the water, then distributes it. By closing a single valve ( 7 ) during the rinse cycle, the user is effectively watering the landscaping. The rinse water is regenerated during normal household washing so it is not dependent on rain. It does not use power nor does it depend on filters or storing water. It reduces the amount of city water required as well as reducing the volume of waste water generated.

This system uses one or a series of expandable and stackable rectangular boxes designed to collect rainwater from a rooftop or other manmade impervious surface via a downspout to reduce rainwater runoff and harvest rainwater for reuse. The system is comprised of a downspout diverter, one or a series of expandable and stackable rectangular boxes, and pipes. Rainwater is diverted from the downspout into the boxes that are connected by pipes. The collected rainwater exits from a valve leading to an opening for reuse. This opening can also be connected to a pump to raise the water pressure to a higher level for irrigation or other usages. The top of the box consists of a flat surface that is suitable for mounting flower beds or plant containers. The stacked rectangular boxes can also be used as a wall or for other nonintrusive purposes. Our RCRS is easy to install and requires minimal space. Our RCRS is made from cost saving materials. Our RCRS boxes can be easily connected to each other. Our RCRS downspout diverter has self-cleaning capabilities. The flat space located on top of our RCRS boxes can be utilized for plantings such as flower beds or a vegetable garden.

The present invention relates to water disposable system comprised of a connecting member having a first side of the connecting member which is connected to at least one unwanted water source which feeds unwanted water to the toilet tank via gravity and further comprises at least one valve to control the flow of unwanted water. The water tank of the toilet is connected to a second side of the connecting member to receive unwanted water and is further enabled to receive fresh water from a fresh water pipe. The water tank comprises a strainer and a standpipe to refill the toilet bowl and the tank simultaneously whilst preventing debris from clogging the small ports within the rim of the toilet bowl. A flushing lever and a second end of the lever is coupled with a rubber flap via a chain with a small float attached at the minimum water line. The purpose of the rubber flap is to allow sufficient water into the bowl in order to flush waste, and the small float attached to the chain is to maintain tension on the chain keeping the flap open when only a small amount of water is available and to allow efficient flushing. Fresh water is maintained at a minimum in the tank by the use of two floats in communication with respective levers to allow fresh water to enter the toilet tank up to a preset volume by water level within the tank. The first float is situated at a low height within the tank to maintain the minimum volume of water required to flush waste. The second float is situated at a height to maintain the maximum volume of water required to flush waste. The operation of the second float can be suspended, allowing empty volume in the toilet tank to be filled by unwanted or gray-water as it becomes available from the attached sources. Further, a button, wherein a first end of the button is enabled to be actuated by the user to flush the fresh water from the water tank and a second end of the button is coupled with a second float, wherein the second float does not allow ...

Reuse of household bathing water for subsurface irrigation of landscaping requires a diverter fitting to enable safe diversion of water away from the bathing area to the subsurface irrigation system. The water diverter fitting described includes an inlet port and two outlet ports, as well as a directional strainer. Orientation of the strainer determines which outlet the majority of the water flows out of, the remainder of the water trickling out of the other port to be used in trap priming and enhancement of line flow. One outlet can also be used as a plug and play access point for a plurality of water regulation technologies including drain closure for a bathing vessel and heat recovery technologies. The directional strainer also serves as a removable fiber filter, and fits within the drain fitting such that a blockage in the water reuse system will allow automatic backflow to the primary sanitary drain without intervention by the bather and without pooling of diverted water. Directing both ports to the primary sanitary drain will result in a higher drainage fitting. 1.

Or an energy source generating device for heating by using the heat of reaction of the water treatment device. According to the water recycling apparatus assembly utilizing the energy source in the high-rise building, which is constructed as above, the reuse of treated water in the high-rise building increases the water supply by reducing the water supply, contributing to securing water resources, and collecting energy generated in the water circulation process. It can be used as an energy source for maintenance, and this can reduce the overall energy requirement for each space of a high-rise building, thereby contributing to carbon reduction in cities and countries.
