A transportable multi-chamber water filtration system useable at construction sites with sources of contaminated water is disclosed. The transportable multi-chamber water filtration system removes sediment and contaminants from contaminated water by combined processes of gravitational settling, filtration and coagulation of sediment by the use of flocculants. The system provides efficient removal of sediment and contaminants from the water around various sized sites.

The present invention relates to a process to produce high purity strontium sulfate and strontium carbonate from subterranean brines. The present disclosure also relates to chemical precipitations of subterranean brines to isolate strontium from divalent cations, such as calcium and barium. Such precipitations include the use of sulfate and subsequent solids separations and washing of the precipitate. In a latter step in the strontium carbonate process, a metathesis reaction with a carbonate is performed upon the strontium sulfate to produce strontium carbonate while allowing optional recycling of the sulfate. An additional rinse with acid or water of the strontium sulfate may be performed prior to metathesis to increase the purity of the resulting strontium carbonate.

A method of processing pulp, extracted from red mud in processing bauxite, includes the following steps. The pulp is filtered to obtain a first filter cake and a first filtrate. Aluminum is leached from the first filter cake by adding, to the first filter cake, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solution to form an aluminum-containing first slurry. The first slurry is filtered to obtain an aluminum-containing second filter cake and a second filtrate. From the second filtrate, in presence of carbon dioxide gas, first aluminum compounds are filtered out. Aluminum is leached out from the second filter cake by adding, to the second filter cake, NaOH solution to form a second slurry. The second slurry is filtered to obtain a third filter cake and an aluminum-containing third filtrate. From the third filtrate, second aluminum compounds are precipitated out which include sodium hydroaluminocarbonate and aluminum hydroxide.
