A method of dewatering magnetite to <10% w/w moisture content, including the step of extracting water from the magnetite by virtue of the magnetism of the magnetite, whereby the magnetite pulls together under magnetic attraction thereby squeezing water outwardly and away from the magnetite.

A method of producing a final product from a wastewater dissolved air flotation (DAF) sludge which includes the following dewatering step: 5—dewatering of the sludge, an aged sludge or a pre-processed sludge to produce a sludge filter cake and a filtrate; such that the pre-processed is sludge, or aged sludge, that has undergone additional processing steps prior to dewatering and aged sludge is sludge that has been stored for a period of time, wherein the dewatering step is a mechanical dewatering step 10 carried out at a maximum of 30° C. which results in a sludge filter cake that does not flow under its own mass.

A device for drying sewage sludge having a modular design composed of standard containers, the standard containers being disposed behind and optionally on top of one another. Slabs including heating lines are introduced on top of one another, in multiple levels, into the standard containers, serving as drying surfaces. Linear conveyors including deflections in a first and a last container distribute the sewage sludge across a width of the drying surfaces, turn and loosen the sewage sludge, and move this successively back and forth over the drying surfaces disposed on top of one another.

Methods and systems for recovering high-value target ions such as lithium ions from a brine solution, wherein a target-ion-selective adsorbent material (such as bound or unbound adsorbent particles) are mixed with the brine solution to form a slurry, and the slurry is contacted with a filter to capture target-ion-enriched material, which target-ion-enriched material is then contacted with a stripping solution to separate the target ions from the target-ion-enriched material.

An organic waste collection apparatus includes a box, a conveying device, a separation device, a squeezing device, a heat shrink device and a recycling device arranged at an upper part of the box for separating a waste bag; a crushing device and a residue treatment device arranged at a lower part of the box for crushing and collecting organic waste; a central control device and a negative pressure purification device arranged in the middle of the box. In the resent disclosure, the waste bags are separated and collected separately, the waste is crushed and stored and transported in the form of residue, or the residue is further performed dry-wet separation, oil-water separation to collect oil, which can realize the safe and efficient treatment of organic waste.

Mounting system for mounting a screen panel in a continuous belt screen assembly. The mounting system includes a first and second set of links, the second set of links being configured to be interposed between, and aligned with, the first set of links. Each respective link defines a respective recessed portion. The continuous belt screen assembly has a pair of spaced, opposed endless belts and a plurality of screen panels arranged between the belts. The sets of links are mountable in spaced, parallel relationship between the belts. The second recessed portions face in a direction opposite to that of the first recessed portions, in use, so that the recessed portions define a channel in which the screen panel is receivable.

The invention relates to a method of producing a binder comprising the steps of preparing (20) a residual material comprising amorphous alumina-rich and/or aluminium hydroxide-rich constituents, heating (30) the residual material to produce a fired material, the heating (30) of the residual material being at a temperature of >800° C.
