A system for transport of water between different depths in a body of water is disclosed. The system comprises a sequence of modules constituting a channel, impeller means arranged related to at least one module for contributing to the transport of water, and controlling and guiding means arranged related to the at least one module for controlling and guiding flow of water into or out of the channel. A method corresponding to the system is disclosed. Use of the system and the method related to fanning of aquatic organisms in a bioreactor is also disclosed.

This application discloses a water pump with a suspension function, including: a pump casing, a pump cover, a motor, a pressing ring, a volute and a base. In this way, the water pump with the suspension function disclosed in this application has an upper part suspended on a water surface to clarify the position of the water pump, thus preventing the problem of being buried by underwater mud and sucking in underwater impurities, and protecting a sealing structure at the upper part of the pump casing.

An inlet sieve for a self-priming floating pump features a bottom wall that is carried in a position that underlies the inlet of the self-priming floating pump at a distance therebelow with the inlet of the pump aligned with an axis that passes through the bottom wall of the sieve. A perforated outer wall of the sieve stands upward from a top side of the bottom wall and extends about the axis. The bottom wall features an outer area that spans inwardly from the perforated outer wall toward the axis, and a protuberance that bulges upwardly from the outer area to an apex of the protuberance that is situated at the axis. Water flowing inwardly toward the protuberance from different radial directions is directed smoothly upward into the inlet of the pump with minimal turbulence in order to optimize the performance of the pump.

According to embodiments described in the specification, a pumping system for use in a tailings pond is provided. The pumping system comprises a pump support and at least one mooring element coupled to the pump support. The at least one mooring element has an extended position for fixing the pump support to a bed of the tailings pond, and a retracted position for permitting movement of the pump support towards a shore of the tailings pond. The at least one mooring element is configured for transitioning from the extended position to the retracted position when a distance from the shore to the pump support exceeds a threshold as a result of a change to tailings pond geometry, and for returning to the extended position following movement of the pump support to reduce the distance below the threshold.

A water system for a hydraulic frac station. The water system includes a water source, a water retention pit, a pump, a riser station, and a water recycling system. The pump is configured to channel water from the retention pit to the riser station and to the hydraulic frac station. The water from the retention pit is channeled to the hydraulic frac station, which in turn is channeled to the recycling system via the riser station.

A fluid pump having a housing with a fluid input and a fluid output, a removable power tool battery pack disposed within the housing, a motor disposed within the housing and electrically connected to the power tool battery pack, and an impeller driven by the motor for drawing fluid through an input opening and into an output opening. The fluid pump may be partially buoyant when placed in a fluid.
