FRAC SAND SEPARATOR SYSTEM
A frac sand separator system includes a sand separator having an inlet fluidly connected to a well for receiving a fracking return mixture from the well. The sand separator is configured to separate water of the fracking return mixture from particulate matter of the fracking return mixture. The sand separator includes an outlet. The frac sand separator system includes a collection container fluidly connected to the outlet of the sand separator for receiving the particulate matter from the sand separator. At least one outlet valve is fluidly connected between the outlet of the sand separator and the collection container. The frac sand separator system includes a computing device operatively connected to the at least one outlet valve. The computing device includes a processor configured to automatically open the at least one outlet valve such that the particulate matter is released from the sand separator into the collection container.
Plant for the treatment of waste water on board of vessels
A plant for the treatment of waste water on board of vessels having a collection tank of black water and grey water, a primary treatment unit including a band filter, a secondary treatment unit including a micro-filtration or ultra-filtration module and a tertiary treatment unit including an ozone treatment module is provided.
SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND APPARATUS FOR MECHANICALLY REMOVING LIQUID FROM MATERIAL
A system for dewatering a material comprising a slitter, wherein the slitter receives the material, separates the material into a plurality of clumps, and deposits the plurality of clumps of material substantially evenly on a conveyor belt. The conveyor belt is partially porous to allow water to pass through but preventing material from passing through. The conveyor belt is operable to convey the material from the slitter to a compression zone; the compression zone comprises at least one high pressure press. The compression plates engages the material positioned on the conveyor belt. At least one knife positioned proximate the at least one compression plate operable to remove material from the bottom surface of the at least one compression plate after a compression cycle; and at least one drain positioned under the conveyor belt to carry water removed from the material away from the conveyor belt.
Hair treatment system, treatments and apparatus
A hand held shower head configured to deliver a continuous dose of water dispersed treatment from a water disintegratable treatment source, the shower head including: a hollow body having water inlet opening and water outlet, the water outlet defined by a perforated plate, and a mesh formation disposed within the hollow body between the water inlet opening and the perforated plate, wherein the water inlet opening, hollow body and perforated plate are configured to create in use a pressurised turbulent water flow within the hollow body prior to exiting through the perforated plate, whereby a water disintegratable tablet treatment source introduced into the hollow body prior to use, is then agitated by the turbulent water flow against the mesh in an abrading manner and thereby dispersed into the water flow exiting the perforated plate. A water disintegratable tablet comprising emulsifier, thickening agent, surfactants, oil and rheology modifier is also disclosed.
Method and system for treatment of an underwater surface and material removed from it
The invention relates to a method and a system for treatment of an underwater surface (S) and material removed from it at a cleaning site. The underwater surface is cleaned by a brush device (1), by which effluent containing solid matter removed from the underwater surface in connection with cleaning is conveyed to a treatment unit (5) where the effluent is subjected to separation and filtering. In a first step, the solid matter contained in the effluent is separated from the effluent in a form as unbroken as possible, immediately followed by a second step in which the effluent is precipitated. Said second step is immediately followed by a third step in which the effluent is filtered. The filtered effluent is discharged directly back to a body of water or to another clean water connection at the cleaning site. The effluent may be subjected to additional filtering and/or disinfection, if necessary.
Sand filter LED status light
A system for treating water for use in aquatics or recreational facilities is disclosed. The system includes a media filter vessel, a pressure sensor, and a monochromatic light source. A method of treating water for use in aquatics or recreational facilities is also disclosed. The method includes fluidly connecting a media filter vessel to a source of water for use in aquatics or recreational facilities, illuminating a media inside the media filter vessel, observing a monochromatic light source display a first indicator and observing a monochromatic light source display a second indicator. A method of retrofitting a media filter vessel is also disclosed. The method includes installing a pressure sensor on the media filter vessel, installing a monochromatic light source and operably connecting the monochromatic light source to a manual control and to the pressure sensor.
Water main recirculating system with filter by-pass and isolation and method of using same
A closed conduit system for use in a water supply system includes a recirculating unit configured to connect to an isolated section between a first point and a second point of the water supply system. The recirculating unit includes a first filter unit defining a first closed circuit including the isolated section and adapted to perform a first treatment. A second filter unit defines a second closed circuit including the isolated section and is adapted to perform a second treatment. At least one pump is capable of generating a flow of water through the first and the second closed circuit, and a valve selectively controls flow through either the first or the second closed circuit.
System and method for regulating and absorbing TFT-LCD organic solvent waste liquid in countercurrent
A system and method for regulating and absorbing TFT-LCD organic solvent waste liquid in countercurrent are provided. In the system, each of longitudinal offset pipes of absorbing pipes is disposed between a lower filter plate and an upper filter plate, bottom positions of the longitudinal offset pipes are connected with a sinking-recovery pipe, each longitudinal offset pipe is provided with a photoelectric detector, an activated carbon supply pipe is provided with an activated carbon supply device, the sinking-recovery pipe is connected with a solid-liquid separator, and a wet activated carbon conduction mechanism is provided with a heating-separating device. Activated carbon particles in the absorbing pipe with a certain saturation amount are led out in a non-disassembly-replacement method, the saturated activated carbon is subjected to solid-liquid separating and heating degassing, thus the saturated organic solvent is separated and recovered and the activated carbon particles are recycled.
Pison valve with annular passages
A water delivery control system operates to selectively deliver water from a water source to water use devices. The system includes a master controller that wirelessly communicates messages with a plurality of slave controllers. The system includes a valve slave controller associated with a water control valve and a motor that is operative to selectively move at least one valve element of the valve. A water meter is operative to measure water flow that corresponds to flow through the valve. The master controller is operable to cause the valve slave controller to enable or prevent flow through the valve responsive at least in part to water flow data. The controller is operative to determine a water use condition responsive to a water usage pattern, and to cause at least one message to be sent to a portable user device responsive to the determined water use condition. The user interface slave controller is associated with a user interface.
