A dewatering unit in the form of a railcar having bogies thereon to move the unit on rail tracks. The dewatering unit has first and second ends, first and second sides, and a bottom that bound and define an interior chamber. A conveyor is provided in the interior chamber and screens are located in the bottom and first and second sides. A grizzly is located below an opening in the unit's top and above the conveyor. Stabilizing assemblies are deployed to contact the ground and lift some weight off of the bogies prior to loading. A solid material/liquid mixture is dropped through the opening and onto the grizzly which partially fractures the solid material. Further fracturing is undertaken by conveyor drag bars and crushers located adjacent the conveyor. Liquid drains from the unit through the screens. The dewatered solid material is lifted out of the unit by the conveyor.

The apparatus and method of amalgam waste recovery provides for the effective recovery of amalgam waste, including mercury and other toxic substances, during a dental procedure. The apparatus includes a novel filter that effectively captures waste and a recovery method that provides for the efficient recovery of mercury, gold, and silver waste during dental procedures. The apparatus may be composed of cellulose or paper allowing recovery of mercury vapors and other by-products.

The apparatus includes a novel filter that effectively captures waste and a recovery method that provides for the efficient recovery of mercury, gold, and silver waste during dental procedures. The filter includes a cylindrical shape that effective entraps dental waste both along the sides and upon the flat, circular end. The apparatus may be composed of cellulose or paper allowing recovery of mercury vapors and other by-products.

The present invention is a filter mechanism provided in a pump or the like, and the purpose thereof is to provide a filter mechanism that can eliminate foreign matter adhering to the surface of a filter and thereby can prevent clogging of filters because of foreign matter. According to the present invention, an area toward the inside in the direction of the radius of the filter is linked to an intake opening (235) of the pump (for example, a trochoid pump (22)) and, via the pump (22) to a pump ejection opening (trochoid pump ejection opening (215)), and an area between a filter (5) and (an inside wall surface (3i) of) a first casing (3) is linked to a low-pressure ejection opening (discharge opening (237)) for a working fluid.

The invention is a gray water reclaiming container and system. It is comprised of two containers, an inner container which captures liquids destined for drainage and an outer liquid container for reclaiming water. There is a screen on the top of the inner container allowing ice to be filtered from liquid drinks as ice is fresh water which usually gets thrown away in cups into the trash can. The ice goes to the outer liquid container where it is melted into usable water.
