A flocculating, grading, and dewatering device includes a tank body, a mixing zone, a flocculent settling zone, a centrifugal dewatering zone, and a particle screening zone. An initial material is mixed with a chemical agent for a flocculation reaction, a lower sediment material settles and an upper liquid overflows. In the centrifugal dewatering zone, a screen basket is allowed to rotate to facilitate a centrifugal movement of the sediment material, water in the sediment material moves into a guide cavity and then flows to a centrifugate outlet, and then a dewatered material in the screen basket is removed out of the screen basket. In the particle screening zone, a screening mechanism screens particles of different size grades in the dewatered material, and water generated flows downward and is discharged; liquids discharged from the centrifugate outlet and the overflow port are combined, and then discharged through a mixed liquid outlet.

The auxiliary lubrication system includes an auxiliary reservoir, an auxiliary pump in fluid communication with the auxiliary reservoir, an auxiliary return line extending between the gearbox and the auxiliary reservoir, the auxiliary return line configured to transport a lubricant from the gearbox to the auxiliary reservoir, and an auxiliary supply line extending between the auxiliary pump and the gearbox, the auxiliary supply line configured to transport the lubricant from the auxiliary pump to the gearbox. The system further includes a non-removable filter positioned in the auxiliary lubrication system. The non-removable filter is configured to prevent or limit debris that is suspended in the lubricant from flowing into the gearbox and/or the auxiliary pump.

An apparatus for cleaning HVAC cooling coils comprises a supply and collection assembly having a housing defining an interior space for containing a quantity of cleaning solution. A pump has a pump inlet positioned to be in fluid communication with the cleaning solution and is operative to deliver the cleaning solution to a supply outlet of the supply and collection assembly. A vacuum source has a vacuum inlet positioned to be in fluid communication with an ullage space above the quantity of cleaning solution such that the vacuum source creates negative pressure in the ullage space during operation. A collection inlet is in fluid communication with the ullage space such that the cleaning solution is returned to the interior space through the collection inlet during operation of the vacuum source. A nozzle device is in fluid communication with the supply outlet via outlet piping so as to deliver the cleaning solution to a surface of an HVAC coil unit. A fluid return tool is in fluid communication with the collection inlet via return piping so as to collect used cleaning solution from the HVAC coil unit.

A sand handling system having, for example, one to three sand separators are configured to be operatively connected to a well and an inlet of a common dumping vessel. Advantageously, the dumping vessel has a sensor to measure an amount of sand in the dumping vessel and provide a signal to a programmable controller which is arranged to dump the dumping vessel when a specified amount of sand is in the dumping vessel. The system automates the sand handling process and also measures and records data associated with a number of flowback parameters. The data can then be used in well design to improve oil and/or gas production, lessen sand production, reduce well damage and/or equipment corrosion due to, for example, sand.

The present invention relates to a self-contained unit having a system for recovering polymer over spray from a pallet coating process.
