Abstract: Capillary membrane sampling-flow injection analyzer (CMS-FIA) analyses of drinking water samples for quantity measurements of total trihalomethane and haloacetic acid contaminants therein are provided. With the necessity to chlorinate drinking water to remove harmful bacteria and other potential toxins, trihalomethane and haloacetic acid byproducts are generated that may harm humans after consumption as well. A reliable manner of measuring such drinking water supplies for such trihalomethane and/or haloacetic acids at locations far from the source and closer to dispensers is highly desirable. The CMS-FIA  analysis method of the invention has been found to be nearly as reliable as source measuring methods for the same purpose, but with the versatility to measure for such trihalomethane and haloacetic acid contaminants anywhere along the drinking water supply line.

Abstract: A liquid disinfecting system utilizing ozone gas with a liquid dispenser suitable for animal consumption. An ozone generator produces ozone and such ozone is injected into a circulating liquid, such as water, within a disinfecting section. The circulating liquid then is dispensed into a liquid containing section appropriate for animal consumption, where unused liquid returns to said disinfecting section. A conventional liquid pump is used to cycle the liquid between sections and an air pump or venturi connector is used to move ozone gas from ozone generator into the circulating liquid. Embodiments of the invention may also include automatic water additions to the system from pressurized water lines or water reservoir tanks and filtration devices for collecting contaminants introduced to the system. Further embodiments can also include a means of controlling the duration of ozone gas production and start times. The invention can be used as a means of providing a safe supply of drinkable liquid suitable for use with animals automatically over longer periods of time than conventional circulating systems.
