Institute of Strength Physics and Materials Science • Russian Academy of Sciences, Siberian Branch NANOCLEAN WATER Filtration material (membrane) Filtersystem Al-nanoprah (20 – 100 nm) Microbiological filter
PROPERTY OF FILTER MATERIAL MICROBIOLOGICAL TESTS • Principe of filtration is connection of membrane filtration and electrostatic absorption. • Removes: • bacteria • viruses • heavy metals • Efficiency 99,999999 - 100% • Filtration of water at relatively high speed (1 cm/s)and low resistance • Nanofiltration is the last step of water filtration systems. E. coli E. faecalis BEFORE and AFTER filtration
WATER IN SLOVENIA “We never know the worth of water till the well is dry." French proverb OR WHEN IT IS POLLUTED! AquaVallis addition WATER IN SLOVENIA IS GOOD, BUT … • there are areas with nitrates, pesticides in it • sale of bottled water grows for 6% yearly • risk of microbiological contamination is bigger.
OPINION OF SLOVENIAN EXPERTSprof. dr. Milenko ROŠ • Presentation of tests • Microbiological tests Maximum level E. coli = 0/100 ml
Tests on metal AquaVallis filter cartridge remuved tested metals (above all the metals, specially metals which form hydroxides) Maximum level (Al, Fe) = 0,2 mg/L * water from well
AquaVallis filtration material … • Use of nano materials enables high flow rates with high efficiency removal of bacteria and some heavy metals. • Filter capacity can be easily increase with adding of new layers of filtration material.
Under counter filtration system / example of household installation Filtration system installed in dentist’s chare Instalation of filtration system in to shaft REALIZATED APPLICATIONS
mechanical filter MICROBIOLOGICAL FILTER + ACTVE CARBON FUTURE ACTIVITYES • Fields of activities: • research and development • production • marketing activities in Europe • establishing of JV company AquaVallis Slovenia
Independent Mobile Filtration Unit (IMFU) • Combining of two development areas in HTZ Velenje • photovoltaic • filtration systems for drinkingwater • IT CAN BE USED ANYWHERE TO ASHURE DRINKING WATER FROM POLLUTED SURFACE WATER • PROPERTYES: • Removal of solid particles , smell, taste… • Removal of microbiological agents and heavy metals from water • Charging24 V (lithium battery, photovoltaic module) • Pump 0,2 kW • Capacity 4,5 - 9 l/min • Pressure max. 5 bar • Life time without service up tu 20.000 l (one AquaVallis cartridge)
MBR – membrane bioreactor Join project of HTZ and NIC Conventional system Developing system Sequencing batch reactors (SBR) is a base for MBR
SBR for MBR X > 10 g/l External and internal mass transfer limitation. • Flocculent sludge -small flocs. • Process with lower OUR
Groundwater Treatment • Nitrates - biological denitrification • Remaining bacteria after denitrification: • Mechanical filter, • AquaVallis filter, • Disinfection. • Micropollutants: • Biological treatment, • Mechanical filter, • AquaVallis filter, • Activated carbon filter.
Technology of production • This is a project of ISPMS in AquaZone Ltd. for knowledge transfer of cartridge technology production
MAKETING ACTIVITES • Market research for Slovenia and Spain. • construction of web pages aquavallis.si • international fears in Millan and Amsterdam • education and informing program with intention to stimulate selling • Integrated image of AquaVallis (trade mark protection, ideas for common look on the market) NANOCLEAN WATER
