Abstract

The invention relates to a device for purifying water contaminated with organic substances, which is drained or collected from filters, especially fuel filters or elements of a fuel system. Hydroxyl radicals are formed from the water by means of a separating device where the hydroxyl radicals oxidize the impurities, especially organic substances, as much as possible, and convert them into compounds such as CO2.
