A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11999644B2) discloses a process for treating contaminated water using ferrate in a redox reactor. The process involves several steps including contacting the contaminated water with ferrate to produce redox water, removing particulate contaminants in a clarifier, and filtering the clarified water in a two-stage filtration system to produce treated water. Each step is performed continuously, with the addition of ferric compound and acidic oxidant solutions at various stages to facilitate the treatment process. The process also includes the use of a flocculant-adsorbent solution in the redox reactor and sludge handling system to enhance contaminant removal efficiency.

Furthermore, the patent claims specify volume ratios for the ferric compound and acidic oxidant solutions at different stages of the treatment process, ensuring optimal treatment efficiency. The process also includes analyzing the concentration of contaminants in the contaminated water and treated water, with the treated water showing a lower concentration of contaminants. Additionally, the two-stage filtration system involves using an advanced catalytic media filter and a catalytic carbon filter to further purify the water. Overall, the patented process offers a comprehensive and continuous method for effectively treating contaminated water, ensuring the production of clean and safe water for various applications.
