Precast Dam Structure With Flowpath
20220154416 · 2022-05-19 ·

A precast dam structure includes at least two precast segments coupled together via linkages and a flow path structure. The flow path structure defines a flow path having an intake port and a draft port and is associated with at least one of the at least two precast segments. The flow path structure is configured to provide a change in flow direction, either internally or externally, from the at least one of the at least two precast segments.

METHOD AND DEVICE FOR TREATING CYANOBACTERIA IN WATER AREA BASED ON BIOLOGICAL COMPETITION PRINCIPLE
20210340045 · 2021-11-04 ·

The invention discloses a method and a device for treating cyanobacteria in a water area based on the principle of biological competition, the method comprising: finding an area where cyanobacteria most easily accumulate, i.e. a concave bank of a water area, and setting up an algae interception net around the area; quickly and largely clearing the cyanobacteria in the area by means of manual or mechanical catching; planting emerged plants on the shoreline of the water area to fundamentally improve water quality; and additionally, densely arranging treatment tanks in a larger water area to kill the cyanobacteria gradually, and collecting dead cyanobacteria to prevent them from polluting the water area subsequently; and collecting and treating the tanks regularly for recycling.

FLOW RESTRICTOR FOR A CONTINUOUS BELT SCREEN ASSEMBLY
20200376418 · 2020-12-03 ·

A continuous belt screen assembly and related methods of controlling flow through the continuous belt screen assembly. The continuous belt screen assembly has a base, opposed sides, an inlet and at least one outlet. The assembly, in use, is arranged in a channel having a pair of opposed walls and containing a liquid. A flow restrictor for the continuous belt screen assembly includes a body mountable to a downstream end of the assembly to restrict the liquid flowing out of the at least one outlet. The body defines at least a portion of at least one aperture configured to control a level of the liquid upstream of the body.

Water intake floating row cleaning system and construction method thereof

The invention relates to a water intake floating row cleaning system, including first vertical guide rail assemblies, a floating row, submersible pumps, water spraying assemblies, second vertical guide rail assemblies, floating fences and pumping assemblies, wherein the water spraying assemblies are communicated with the submersible pumps, and the submersible pumps pump the water of the river channel and spray the water towards the outside through the water spraying assemblies; and the floating fences stretch across the water intakes and float along with a water level, and the pumping assemblies are used for pumping out garbage blocked by the floating fences. The invention has the effect of efficiently cleaning the floating garbage at the water intakes.
