Abstract
An in-house closed water filter system to remove carcinogenic 1,4-dioxane and other contaminants to purify drinking water. A resin is engineered by a method developed to identify 1,4-dioxane and remove it using direct photolysis and advanced oxidation processes involving UV/H2O2/Fe(II). The resin is coupled with granulated activated charcoal to create an in-house filter system.
Claims20
An in-house drinking water purification system comprising:
- a first unit, wherein the first unit having a top and a bottom opening, wherein the top opening allows an unfiltered water to fill the first unit and the bottom unit allows a flow of water free from 1,4-dioxane and microbes out of the first unit,
- a second unit, wherein the second unit is connected to the first unit by a first valve, wherein the first valve allows the flow of water free from 1,4-dioxane and microbes from the first unit to the second unit, and
- a third unit, wherein the third unit is connected to the second unit by a second valve, wherein the second valve allows a flow of purified water from the second unit to the third unit.
A method of making an in-house drinking water purification system, wherein the method comprising:
- providing a first unit, wherein the first unit having a top and a bottom opening, wherein the top opening allows an unfiltered water to fill the first unit and the bottom unit allows a flow of water free from 1,4-dioxane and microbes out of the first unit,
- connecting the first unit to a second unit by a first valve, wherein the first valve allows the flow of water free from 1,4-dioxane and microbes from the first unit to the second unit, and
- connecting the second unit to a third unit by a second valve, wherein the second valve allows a flow of purified water from the second unit to the third unit.
A method of using an in-house drinking water purification system, wherein the method comprising:
- providing the in-house drinking water purification system, wherein the in-house drinking water purification system comprising:
- a first unit, wherein the first unit having a top and a bottom opening, wherein the top opening allows an unfiltered water to fill the first unit and the bottom unit allows a flow of water free from 1,4-dioxane and microbes out of the first unit,
- a second unit, wherein the second unit is connected to the first unit by a first valve, wherein the first valve allows the flow of water free from 1,4-dioxane and microbes from the first unit to the second unit, and
- a third unit, wherein the third unit is connected to the second unit by a second valve, wherein the second valve allows a flow of purified water from the second unit to the third unit,
- activating a first sensor and a second sensor in the first unit, and
- purifying the unfiltered water to obtain purified drinking water.
