Biofilter Housing System for Well Water Purification

원문 (중국어)

The present invention relates to a biofilter for removal of iron from well water, which comprises an enclosed spherical housing, with inlet and outlet nozzles for flow of water and an inlet nozzle with connecting elliptical cavity for aeration. The housing can be filled with activated carbon material. The housing increases contact time between contaminated water and biomaterial by directing the flow path. The biofilter can be used for either residential or commercial purposes. The spherical housing comprises an elliptical cavity for aeration, donut-shaped cavity for increasing contact time of water, and inner concave core with a plurality of inlet and outlet apertures for directing the flow path to allow for effective removal of iron as contaminated water flows under gravitational feed through the biomaterial for removal of contaminants, thereby producing potable water at the outlet of the housing. Exhausted biomaterial can be treated and reused or be entirely replaced.
