The present invention provides an ozonization apparatus which is not only capable of dissolving ozone in material water with high efficiency and speedily but also enables the easy and proper control of the dissolved ozone concentration of ozone water. The present invention relates to an ozonization apparatus comprising

Ozone treating apparatus

The present invention controls the concentrations of oxygen and carbonate gases in a hydroponic solution in a growing pool, by independently connecting online to a growing pool a hydroponic-solution feeder in the structure such that a plurality of semipermeable-membrane tubes to circulate liquid fertilizer (or water) is placed and arranged in a tank to circulate water (or liquid fertilizer), and a controller of dissolved gas concentration in the structure such that a hydroponic-solution conduit and a gas conduit are formed separately by arranging in the tank a separating membrane to pass only gas and prevent the permeation of liquid, and circulating oxygen and/or carbonate gas in the gas conduit of the controller of dissolved gas concentration, along with the circulation of the hydroponic solution in the growing pool through the hydroponic-solution conduit while appropriately controlling the concentration of liquid fertilizer in the hydroponic solution by means of the hydroponic-solution feeder, whereby the dissolved gas in the hydroponic solution is substituted with oxygen and/or carbonate gas.

Hydroponic growing system

A unit for degassing liquids including soft, viscous substances. The unit comprises a pipe body having an interior, and a tube housed within the interior of the pipe so as to allow liquids to flow through the porous tube. The tube is of a material porous to the passage of gases but not the passage of liquids.

A measuring apparatus for measuring the number and size of impurities such as dust and bacteria in super-pure water includes a sealed container; a sample supply line which sealingly interconnects a source of super-pure water with the sealed container and supplies a sample mixture of super-pure water and electrolyte to the sealed container; an overflow pipe which sealingly connects with the side of the sealed container; a negative electrode which extends into the sample mixture in the sealed container; a hollow sensor which extends into the sample mixture in the sealed container, the hollow sensor containing a positive electrode surrounded by electrolyte and having a small hole at its lower end; and a detecting circuit connected to said negative and positive electrodes for supplying a certain DC current therebetween and detecting voltage pulses caused by impurities passing through the small hole into the hollow sensor.

Apparatus for measuring impurities in super-pure water without exposure

An apparatus for adjusting concentration of a solution comprises a plurality of semipermeable membrane tubes located within a container, a liquid A supply pipe connected to the container and communicating with the interior of said semipermeable membrane tubes and a liquid B supply pipe connected to said container to communicate with the exterior of the tubes.

Apparatus for adjusting the concentration of a solution

An electrical pulse apparatus for measuring impurities in ultrapure water includes a deaeration device connected to the conduit line supplying electrolyte to the hollow detector so as to deaerate the electrolyte and enable bubbles formed by electrolysis at the electrodes to be readily redissolved and thus increase measurement sensitivity and speed.

Apparatus for measuring impurities in ultrapure water

A liquid chromatograph includes a solvent tank, a pump, a sample injection element, a column, a detector, conduits for successively interconnecting these elements, and a flow controller which is connected between the pump and the detector and in parallel with the column.

Liquid chromatograph with flow controller

A degassifying apparatus for removing air or other dissolved gas from liquid comprises a degassifying tank placed under at least a partial vacuum. The apparatus also includes a coiled tube having a plurality of turns in a generally spiral configuration which is positioned within the tank. Spacer elements are positioned between adjacent coiled turns of the tube and/or between the tube and an inner wall of the tank to eliminate contact between the tube and the tank and to thereby maximize the total surface area of the tube which is exposed to the decompressed atmosphere within the tank. This provides a highly desirable and advantageous degassifying effect to the liquid being conducted through the tube.

Method and device for degassifying liquid

Disclosed herein is a high-sensitivity differential refractometer which is characterized by having a light source disposed outside a housing, a reflecting mirror attached at the end portion thereof to a reflecting mirror-supporting plate connected with the end of a movable plate, said movable plate being so constructed as to rotate around a vertical axis and permit free change of the angle formed between said reflecting mirror-supporting plate and the movable plate, a twisting member disposed inside a lead-in tube and said lead-in tube fastened to a removable case and built in a metallic block inside the housing.
