The sludge dehydrator equipment is a machine that permits to remove low turbidity water from sludge or watery pastes of industrial or mining origin, with the following objectives: To optimize ore recovery processes such as flotation by means of an increase of the sludge density; To thicken sludge or watery pastes for optimizing the filtering and drying processes, as well as to dispose of mining tailings; To concentrate and dispose of solids in suspension and to recover and recycle clean or clarified water.

The sludge dehydrator equipment has been designed on the basis of a rectangular tank provided with the necessary infrastructure for containing inside a series of suction plates being connected to a vacuum system, through which the process of solid-liquid separation is carried out and, on the other hand, to contain the cleaning mechanism-the cleaning car-with its motor system made up by pneumatic or hydraulic components required to clean suction plates the filtering medium and to keep them permanently operative.

In accordance with the sludge dehydrator feeding and the design of the lower or bottom cone of the rectangular tank will benefit to be derived from the industrial and mining operation.

Apparatus for treating water has a container having a clarification zone, a water entry arrangement for flowing water into the clarification zone, and water exit units mounted to the container for at least partial immersion in the water in the clarification zone. Each water exit unit has a transfer channel for transferring a flow of clarified water from a layer of the water to a predetermined depth in the clarification zone and to direct the received clarified water to a water exit arrangement. A height adjustment mechanism is used for differentially adjusting the heights of the water exit units and their transfer channels relative to the container so as to compensate for any angular tilt of the container owing to the container being deployed on sloping ground.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include systems and methods for collecting, storing, separating, and disposing of waste material from an oil and gas well site in order to enhance payload efficiency. An embodiment of a method, for example, may include introducing a waste material into an enhanced-payload mobile vessel positioned at the oil and gas well site, the waste material selected to include one or more of a sludge waste material, a solids-laden wastewater material, and a dry waste material. The method may further include transporting the waste material when positioned in the enhanced-payload mobile vessel along roadways to an off-site waste management facility. Additionally, the method may include dumping the waste material from the enhanced-payload mobile vessel by a site-based lifting mechanism into a receiving vessel at the off-site waste management facility thereby to dispose of the waste material at a reduced transportation cost.

The present disclosure provides a sedimentation tank capable of automatically adjusting liquid level and flow, which comprises one or more sedimentation cells which are connected in sequence, a water inlet pipe is arranged on the left side of the leftmost sedimentation cell; the front end of the water inlet pipe is bent and the input port of it is close to the wall; the highest point of the connecting pipe is lower than the highest point of the grease discharge port of the corresponding sedimentation cell, when the liquid level in the sedimentation cell reaches the discharge level of the connecting pipe, the connecting pipe automatically adjusts the flow according to different discharge level so as to adjust the liquid level of the sedimentation cell, and the settled sewage is discharged out of the tank or discharged into the next-stage sedimentation cell until the last stage, and finally discharged. The sedimentation tank has a compact and attractive structure and high space utilization, and different connecting pipe structures can be selected specifically, so as to change the capacity of adjusting the liquid level and flow of the sedimentation tank, and the sewage separation effect is thorough.

A filter for a water cooling system in a marine drive includes a cavity having an upper side and a lower side, a water inlet that delivers a water flow into the cavity, and a water outlet that delivers water out of the cavity. The flow velocity of water within the cavity is low such that heavy debris sinks toward the lower side of the cavity and buoyant debris floats toward the upper side of the cavity. An upper debris outlet expels the buoyant debris out of the cavity and a lower debris outlet expels the heavy debris out of the cavity.

The present disclosure provides a container-type apparatus for wastewater treatment with a suspended particle system, including one or multiple biological reaction zones. Said biological reaction zones can be facultative, anaerobic, anoxic, and aerobic and at least one of said biological reaction zones is a suspended particle system. Particles in said suspended particle system act as the carrier of microbiota and offer better conditions for them to grow. The apparatus adopts a box structure, such as a container type, which is convenient to move, flexible to assemble, and can be used for multiple times. Based on actual requirements, this apparatus can also be a structure type. The suspended particle system disclosed herein applied in wastewater treatment can increase the concentration of microorganisms significantly, improve the ability to bear impact load, produce less sludge, and without sludge expansion. Meanwhile, the means to suspend particles by gas and liquid is able to reduce energy consumption to a larger extent. Therefore, this system features high efficiency and low energy consumption.

A method and apparatus for separating two fluids, one lighter in specific gravity than the other, including the steps of providing a single vessel, having a primary separation chamber and a gas flotation chamber; separating fluids in the primary separation chamber to allow for free and suspended solids along with free oil and grease and gas to be removed from the fluids in the primary separation chamber; flowing the fluids into the gas flotation chamber portion; providing a first induced gas flow; combining a second gas flow of micro-bubbles with the first gas flow; and introducing the combined gas flow into the gas flotation chamber portion to provide a source of micro-sized dispersed bubbles in the fluid to accelerate the lift necessary for separation of fine oil droplets, emulsified oil droplets, from the water flowing in the flotation chamber portion. The apparatus for introducing the micro-bubbles to be comingled with the first induced gas flow includes a static mixer, a DGF pump, eductor and a series of globe valves which can be part of the gas flotation system or retrofitted to an existing gas flotation system.
