A machine and methods using electro-chemical treatments, sedimentation processes and dissolved air flotation technologies for clarification of several kind of wastewater produced in industries, sewages, ponds, lakes, canals etc. The machine comprises of, feeding lines with multiple feeding point, a tank and further a collection tank. The wastewater is passed into the feeding line which may comprises of several feeding points for coagulants, flocculants, and other chemicals dosing into the flow of wastewater and may also comprises of a static mixer for mixing the coagulants, flocculants, and other chemicals with wastewater to agglomerate any solid particles and to accelerate separation of the solid particles in the tank. Once the solid are formed, they can go up or down, therefore to remove the suspended solids the outlet are rearranged depending on the suspended solids. Further, the machine is used for treatment of wastewater utilising multi pass concept to produce clean water.

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of waste water treatment, and provides a device and a method for controlling diffusion of MPs (Microplastics) carried with ARGs (Antibiotic Resistance Genes) in a waste water treatment system. The device includes a water collection tank arranged on a mounting rack, a collection assembly arranged inside the water collection tank and used for collecting MPs carried with ARGs in waste water, and a treatment assembly arranged inside the water collection tank and used for removing the collected MPs carried with ARGs in waste water. According to the method, sorting treatment for the MPs carried with ARGs in waste water is realized effectively with an air flotation principle and an electric separation principle. The device is simple in integral structure, and has the advantage of convenience in mounting.

A clarifier of a wastewater treatment system is made more efficient and cost effective with an energy dissipating inlet (EDI) that removes the need for a conventional feedwell/EDI system. A central influent pipe has wastewater outlet ports under the liquid surface, the ports being surrounded by an efficient EDI surrounding the center pipe and extending outwardly therefrom. The EDI receives influent flow and directs the sludge outwardly and generally downwardly at reduced flow velocity. Series of baffles in the EDI help slow the flow velocity and disperse the sludge. In another embodiment a faucet-type EDI has discharge openings that disperse the sludge downwardly after it has flowed through sets of baffles above. Significant cost reductions in material and installation are realized by elimination of the conventional feedwell/EDI system.

The present disclosure provides a grid system, including a grid body and supports, where the grid body includes a water intake module, a filtering module, a residue scraping module, a residue pressing module, and a water discharge module; the filtering module is disposed at a middle-upper part of the grid body, the water intake module and the residue pressing module are organically coupled at a lower part of the filtering module, and the water intake module includes a water inlet and a water distribution area; the filtering module includes a water retaining platform, an inflow water guide plate, screen plate areas, and a central water retaining weir; the residue scraping module includes scrapers, a driving motor, a support frame, a residue inlet, and a guide rail; the residue pressing module includes a squeezing cylinder, a motor, and a residue outlet.

A portable unit and associated processing are described for clarifying process water used in oil and gas operations such as fracking or drill-out operations. In the portable unit, dirty water (402) is introduced into a clarifier (400). The dirty water (402) is directed to a bottom of the clarifier (400) where dissolved air 408 from a dissolved air flotation pump (410) is injected into the water (402). The water (402) then passes across the inclined plates (412). Particles are separated from the water (402) via interaction with the plates (412) and directed to collectors (414), at the bottom of the clarifier (404), by gravitation. In addition, a floc, enhanced by the injection of the dissolved air (408), is skimmed from the water surface. The result of this process flow is clarified water (430) that can be returned to the frack and post-frack completion process.

A grease trap for separating waste from waste water includes a tank, an inlet in the tank for receiving incoming waste water, a pump discharge for discharge of grease from the tank and a cartridge fitting within the tank. The cartridge includes a pump that is housed in a lower portion of the tank for removing grease from the tank, a plumbing disconnect that provides a communication between the cartridge and the pump discharge when the plumbing disconnect is engaged and optionally terminates the communication if the plumbing disconnect is disengaged and a remote pumper interface distally connected to the pump discharge and including a releasable connection for a pumping truck hose. Methods for separating waste from waste water are also shown and described.

An apparatus and method for a grease trap for separating grease and solid waste from waste water. The grease trap includes a tank having a downwardly shaped bottom. An upwardly shaped baffle insert divides the tank into an upper chamber and a lower chamber. An outlet port near an upper part of the baffle allows waste into the upper chamber. An inlet invert in the tank receives incoming waste water, while an outlet invert removes water from the tank. A removable cover covers the tank and allows access for removal of accumulated grease and solid wastes.

A waste water treatment system including primary settling tanks. The waste water treatment system includes a trough which causes waste water to flow in a direction parallel to a bar screen placed in the trough with the base of the bar screen being at a lower elevation than the trough weir. Each primary settling tank has a fine screen box for screening waste water. Each primary settling tank has a scum and floatables trough for collecting scum and floatables which pass through or over a top edge of the bar screen. The scum and floatables troughs are in fluid communication with one another. When a scum valve is open, scum, floatables and waste water in the scum and floatables trough flow from the scum and floatables trough of the first primary setting tank to the scum and floatables trough of the second primary settling tank and into a collection container.

A high-rate sedimentation tank includes a hopper configured to be supplied with raw water including floc, at least one circular orifice pipe disposed at a lower portion of the hopper and configured to have the floc deposited therein as a sludge while passing the floc included in the raw water therethrough, and a sludge outlet configured to discharge the sludge deposited by passing through the circular orifice pipe to an outside of the hopper.
