A media is used to remove species from aqueous solutions, particularly in the treatment of water to enable it to be suitable for drinking. The media includes a material selected from the group consisting of zirconium hydroxide, titanium hydroxide, hafnium hydroxide and combinations thereof. A preferred form of the media is a layer having an aspect ratio of at least 1:1, more preferably, at least about 10:1. Removed from the water are species selected from the group consisting of arsenate, selenate, chromate, borate, perchlorate, fluoride and combinations thereof. In particular arsenite (As ) containing species are also removed from water. Arsenite may be removed from water to levels not greater than 10 parts per billion with a single exposure to the media. The media is selective for certain species over others. The arsenite component is removed despite a presence of at least one competing species selected from the group consisting of sulphate, phosphate, nitrate, bicarbonate, iron, carbonate, nitrite, silicate, sulphite, chloride, bromide and iodide.

The invention relates to a method that reduces limestone scale deposit on surfaces and in heating elements, especially, for drinking water in foodservice vending and dispensing machines without affecting the water quality. The method includes passing the water through metal particulate and polyphosphates to remove minerals therefrom and thus reduce scale deposits upon water contacted portions of such machines.

Contemplated electrochemical devices and methods include an electrolyte flow path in which substantially all of the electrolyte has laminar flow. A segmented electrode contacts the electrolyte, and each of the segments in the segmented electrode is preferably coupled to a control device to provide control over the flow of current to and/or from the electrolyte. Thus, it should be appreciated that the redox state of the electrolyte can be changed in a single-pass through the flow path, which effectively eliminates problems associated with mass transport phenomena and reduced current efficiency.

There is disclosed a portable display vehicle which is useful for transporting, storing and displaying food, beverage and other displayable products. The vehicle comprises a base member having a rear edge and including a plurality of casters attached to the underside thereof for supporting the vehicle in an upright and stable condition. Sidewalls are attached in a vertical position to the sides of the base member. Between the sidewalls there is an L-shaped product support member comprising a back wall attached to a bottom shelf in such a way that the bottom shelf slopes downwardly toward the rear edge of the base member. The sidewalls and the product support member thereby form an open volume for containing the displayed products.

Lead is recovered from lead paste of a lead acid battery in a continuous process. The lead paste is contacted with a base to generate a supernatant and a precipitate. The precipitate is separated from the supernatant, and is contacted with an alkane sulfonic acid to generate a mixture of lead ion solution and insoluble lead dioxide. The lead dioxide is reduced with a reducing agent to form lead oxide, and the lead oxide is combined with the lead ion solution to form a combined lead ion solution to so allow a continuous process without lead dioxide accumulation. Lead is recovered from the combined lead ion solution using electrolysis.
