  • Cylindrical rotating reverse osmosis (RO) is a means of dynamic filtration that incorporates both high shear and flow instabilities to reduce membrane fouling. This article summarizes recent works on rotating RO including the physics of rotating filtration; mass - transfer and concentration polarization; theoretical and experimental analysis; and some case studies.

  • The centrifugal oil purifier is used in ships for purifying the engine lubrication oil. The momentum needed for the rotation of the cylindrical chamber is obtained by jet injections. The dust particles in the oil are separated by the centrifugal forces moving to the inner wall of the rotating cylindrical chamber body. The dust particles are eliminated when the particles are adsorbed onto the surface of the inner wall of the chamber body. The flow characteristics and the physical behaviours of particles in this centrifugal oil purifier have been investigated numerically and the filtration efficiencies have been evaluated. For the calculations, a commercial code has been used and the SST k-${\omega}$ turbulence model has been adopted. The MRF (Multiple Reference Frame) method has been introduced to consider the rotating effect of the flows. Under various variables, such as particle size, particle density and rotating speed, the filtration efficiencies have been evaluated. It has been verified that the filtration efficiency is increased with the increments of the particle size, the particle density and the rotating speed of the cylindrical chamber.

  • The centrifugal oil purifier is used in an engine for lubrication and to remove impurities. The momentum needed for the rotation of the cylindrical chamber is obtained by jet injections. An impure particle in the oil is separated by the centrifugal forces moving to the inner wall of the rotating cylindrical chamber body. The dust particles are eliminated when the particles are absorbed onto the surface of the inner wall of the chamber body. The flow characteristics and the physical behaviors of particles in this centrifugal oil purifier were investigated numerically and the filtration efficiencies was evaluated. For calculations, a commercial code is used and the SST (Shear Stress Transport) turbulence model has been adopted. The MFR (Multi Frames of Reference) method is introduced to consider the rotating effect of the flows. Under various variables, such as particle size, particle density and rotating speed, the filtration efficiencies are evaluated. It has been verified that the filtration efficiency is increased with the increments in the particle size, the particle density and the rotating speed of the cylindrical chamber.

  • The use of lubrication oil is of many purposes and one among them is to drive the engine mounted on a ship. Hence the supply of clean lubrication oil is important. And an oil purifier is one of key components in marine diesel engines. At present, the element type full-flow oil filter has been widely used for cleaning the engine oil. The self-driven centrifugal oil purifier is a device which is used to remove the impurities in lubrication oil using a jet flow. The flow characteristics and the physical behaviors of particles in this self-driven oil purifier were investigated numerically and the filtration efficiencies were evaluated. For calculations, a Computational Fluid Dynamics method is used and the Shear Stress Transport turbulence model has been adopted. The Multi Frames of Reference method is used to consider the rotating effect of the flows. The influence of centrifugal forcehas been numerically investigatedto improve filtration efficiency of tiny particles. As a result of this research, it was found that the particle filtration efficiency using the only center axis rotating and outer wall rotating system are higher than that of the fully rotating system in the self-driven oil purifier.

  • The water resource depending on mostly surface water has many problems, such as contaminated and unpredicted contamination event. For this reason, it has been employed highly technical treatment method for them, such as ground water dam and river bank filtration. it has been developed the radial collector wells in kind of bank filtration to increase efficiency for in-taking the water resource insead of the vertical well needed many wells to take more resource. But it has many problems with the incumbent method to bore the horizontal hole for radial collector wells, such as filling with the filter material outside of a strainer by watering, jamming as retrieving the casing tube with the filter material, eccentric boring etc. To reduce the problems of incumbent equipment, it has been developed the horizontal boring equipment and performed the field trial tests several times, which have bits and water jetting system with rotating the cone-shaped front to be excavated easily. In this paper, it was compared the brand-new with the incumbent non-rotating pressing insertion method. Also it was shown the problems of the incumbent method was reduced effectively.

  • The objective of this study is to analyze, design and evaluate a new gas cleanup or sampling system that will remove erosive, corrosive, and fouling contaminants present in an effluent stream as either solid or liquid particles providing a clean gas stream. The gas clean-up or sampling system considered in this study is an irrigated, rotating element device. The device consists of a central disk-like hub from which emanate radially wires or cylindrical elements. (omitted)

  • The treated ballast water from previous treatment contains microorganisms and pathogenic organisms in an filtration treatment system. The advantage of this process can be filtrated to minimize the demage to screen clogging of drum filter with sweeping the solids off rotating the surface of the filter. Another advantage is to drop off the solids with controlling revolution of drum screen in pretreatment filtration process. Also the fact that it is easy to attach and detach a several type of screen for getting the expected water quality is another advantage, too. Filter rotation speed at 20rpmis 40.5cmHg and 40rpm is 36.6cmHg. Filter out impurities from ballast water over 60rpm is 35cmHg. Filtration system removal aquatic organism over $80{\mu}m$ in ballast water. This study shows that the filtration treatment system has a potential for the removal of ballast water.
