The invention is used in various branches of industry, in particular in agriculture for preparing seeds for sowing and for selection purposes. The method of separating a granular mixture in a flowing medium is based on a gravitational supply of particles, with an aerodynamic, monotonously increasing action thereon with a cascade of flat jets, said cascade being stabilized in terms of pressure and discharge. Large impurities are removed from the granular mixture beforehand, and stable parameters are maintained in the separation chamber. The device comprises a vibrating screen, an adjustable hopper with an agitator and a vibrating chute, a generator of a cascade of flat jets, which is connected to a drive for supplying air under pressure, a fraction collector and a separation chamber. The output of the separation chamber is covered with a filtering element in the form of a rotating drum with a calibrating sifter on the surface, said sifter being connected to a cyclone.

The invention relates to an installation (5) for treating wastewater from a toilet (3), comprising a solid/liquid separation filter (25) and a liquid recirculation circuit (27) for conveying a liquid from said filter to a tank (11). The installation (5) is characterised in that the filter (25) has an inlet intended to be connected to a bowl, a solid/liquid separation module, a first outlet connected to a discharge pipe (30) and a second outlet connected to the recirculation circuit, said filter (25) conveying the solid materials to said first outlet and the liquid materials to said second outlet, said installation also being characterised in that said recirculation circuit comprises a filtration assembly designed to make said liquid reusable. The invention also relates to a sanitary unit (I) comprising such an installation.

A dishwasher includes a tub with an access opening to a treating chamber, a sump, at least one sprayer emitting liquid into the treating chamber, a pump, a conduit fluidly coupling the sump to the pump and the pump to the at least one sprayer, thereby defining a recirculation circuit through which the liquid sprayed into the treating chamber collects in the sump and is pumped back to the at least one sprayer. The dishwasher also includes a filter assembly in the sump for filtering the liquid in the recirculation circuit including a cleaning element.

A rotary disk filter includes a drum and filter disks. Each filter disk has an inner hollow space, at least a portion of which is delimited by filter surfaces, wherein the hollow spaces are fluidically connected to the drum such that the waste water can flow from the interior of the drum into the hollow spaces and, from there, the filtrate can flow across the filter surfaces toward the outside. The rotary disk filter also has a spray nozzle arrangement including spray nozzle tubes and spray nozzles mounted on the spray nozzle tubes. In one aspect, the spray nozzles each have two spray nozzle sections (each having at least one nozzle head), and an interlocking connection, by means of which the spray nozzle sections are connected to the spray nozzle tubes. The spray nozzles can be removed from the spray nozzle tube once the interlocking connection has been released.
