Abstract
system for reducing an amount of volatile organic compounds comprising: a water-storage tank comprising a tank containing water, a roof positioned over the tank, and a headspace region formed between the roof and a surface of the water contained in the tank; an air exchange system positioned at least partially in the headspace region that is configured to exchange air exterior to the tank with air inside the tank; and a water conveyance device located at least partially in the water of the water-storage tank and which is configured to convey water in a manner that produces a surface flow velocity, wherein the air exchange system comprises an active air ventilation device configured to facilitate the movement of air exterior of the water-storage tank directly into the headspace region above the surface of the water, and wherein the active air ventilation device comprises a deflector that deflects the air exterior of the water-storage tank entering the headspace region in a direction that is non-perpendicular to the water surface.
Claims (14)
1. A system for reducing an amount of volatile c compounds comprising: a water-storage tank comprising a tank containing water, a roof positioned over the tank, and a headspace region formed between the roof and a surface of the water ned in the tank; an air exchange system positioned at least partially in the headspace region that is configured to exchange air exterior to the tank with air inside the tank; and a water conveyance device located at least partially in the water of the water-storage tank and which is configured to convey water in a manner that produces a surface flow velocity, wherein the air exchange system comprises an active air ation device configured to facilitate the movement of air exterior of the water-storage tank directly into the headspace region above the surface of the water, and wherein the active air ventilation device comprises a deflector that deflects the air or of the water-storage tank entering the headspace region in a direction that is non-perpendicular to the water surface.
2. The system of claim 1, wherein the water conveyance device is configured to convey water to the water surface.
3. The system of claim 1, wherein the tank has a floor and the water conveyance device is configured to exchange water at or toward the floor of the tank with water at or toward the water surface.
4. The system of claim 3, wherein the water conveyance device circulates water around the tank.
5. The system of claim 1, wherein the water conveyance device is completely submerged in the water when the tank is in use.
6. The system of claim 5, wherein the water conveyance device is attached to or sits upon the floor of the tank.
7. The system of claim 1, wherein the air exchange system comprises a port that enables air to flow out of the storage tank.
8. The system of claim 1, wherein the active air ventilation device is configured to tate the movement of air exterior of the water-storage tank into the headspace region substantially across the water surface.
9. The system of claim 1, wherein the active air ation device comprises air vents that fluidly connect the air exterior of the water-storage tank to the ace region.
10. The system of claim 9, n the active air ventilation device comprises at least one screen that is positioned over at least one of the air vents.
11. The system of claim 1, wherein the active air ventilation device comprises an air moving device.
12. The system of claim 11, wherein the air moving device is a fan.
13. The system of claim 1, wherein the water conveyance device comprises a mixer having blades.
14. The system of claim 11, wherein the deflector is in fluid ication with the air moving device. HG. "E
