Patent ID: 8580125

Claim:
A system for treatment of a fluid with oxygen, the system comprising: a reactor having a first inlet and an outlet; a fluid line having first and second valves disposed therein; a fluid inlet connected to the first valve and to the first inlet of the reactor, and wherein the first valve controls the flow of fluid into the first inlet of the reactor; an oxygen inlet operatively connected to the reactor and to a supply of oxygen; an oxygen valve within the oxygen inlet capable of controlling the flow of oxygen into the reactor; a fluid outlet connected to the outlet of the reactor and to the second valve, and wherein the second valve controls the flow of treated fluid from the outlet of the reactor; and a controller operably connected to the oxygen valve, the controller capable of controlling the flow of oxygen through the oxygen valve into the reactor based on the fluid flow rate in the fluid line, the controller operable to measure the amount of dissolved oxygen present in the treated fluid exiting the reactor, and the controller further capable of modifying the amount of oxygen flowing into the reactor based on the measurement of said dissolved oxygen.
