Abstract:
1. An apparatus for modifying contaminants in a liquid comprising: a. a cap with liquid inlet and outlet openings and a bleeder valve located at said outlet opening; b. a hollow reaction chamber body having a generally cylindrical shape, a bottom and an open top, said reaction chamber body being removably attached to the underside of said cap at said open top of said reaction chamber body; c. a generally cylindrically shaped liquid deflector cup fixedly attached to the inside of said reaction chamber body at said bottom of said reaction chamber body; d. an internal liquid supply tube fixedly attached at a first end of said internal supply tube to the inside of said liquid inlet opening in said cap, said supply tube extending down the inside center of said reaction chamber body and a second end of said internal liquid supply tube ending within said liquid deflector cup; e. a conically shaped first mesh screen abutting said second end of said internal liquid supply tube and said first mesh screen is attached to the top edge of said cylindrical deflector cup; f. a dual funnel shaped object attached to said internal supply tube proximate said second end of said internal liquid supply tube, said dual funnel shaped object in close proximity within but not in contact with said conical screen to allow said liquid to pass between the gap created by said dual funnel shaped object being in close proximity to said liquid deflector cup; g. a reaction material inside of said reaction chamber body above said first mesh screen, said liquid and said reaction material being in turbulent flow with said liquid flowing through said apparatus; and h. a filter pad removably attached between said top of said reaction chamber body and said cap that allows said liquid to pass through said apparatus and out said outlet opening in said cap while preventing any said reaction material from exiting said apparatus.
