A water tank for a household appliance having a connection for a filter cartridge, wherein an annular tank sealing face is provided on the tank bottom for the tight connection of the filter cartridge and the tank sealing face encloses a tank passage opening for the water from the filter cartridge to flow through the wall of the tank bottom to the household appliance, characterized in that the tank sealing face along its circumference has a variable radius in relation to a central axis, so that the tank sealing face comprises radial concavities and/or radial convexities, wherein the convexities and/or concavities have a round profile, and wherein the concavities and/or convexities are configured to periodically oscillate around a circular line.

A drilling fluid shaker screen system includes a screen assembly that includes a screen including a plurality of screen sections. A first screen section includes a first screen mesh size and a second screen section includes a second screen mesh size different than the first screen mesh size. The drilling fluid shaker screen system further includes a rotation assembly mounted to the screen assembly. The rotation assembly includes one or more rollers moveable to rotate the screen assembly about an axis of rotation. The drilling fluid shaker screen system further includes a motor assembly coupled to the screen assembly and configured to vibrate the screen assembly. A housing includes a cuttings outlet that is fluidly coupled to a cuttings inlet formed in the screen and a liquid outlet separate from the cuttings outlet that is fluidly coupled to the plurality of screen sections.

Modular fluid processing apparatuses, modular components and related methods are provided. A fluid processing apparatus for use in fluid processing systems can include a housing comprising first body half and a second body halves that are secured together. The first body half has one or more half bores that extend along a length of the first body half and the second body half has one or more half bores that extend along a length of the second body half with the one or more half bores in the first body half aligning with the one or more half bores in the second body half forming one or more full sleeve-receiving bores. The fluid processing apparatus can include one or more sleeves that are securable between the first and second body halves within the one or more sleeve-receiving bores to form piston pathways within the housing for receiving pistons.
