A water treatment system for a water reservoir comprises a collection box; a rotary drum filter arranged to receive gravity flow from the collection box through a receiving line; a primary bio-filter; a secondary bio-filter; one or more connecting lines originating at the rotary drum filter and comprising at least a first outlet line connected to the primary bio-filter and a second outlet line connected to the secondary bio-filter, the second outlet line comprising a pump; and a return line originating at the primary bio-filter and terminating at the water reservoir. The collection box has a bottom and sides defining an interior volume, and comprises a first water intake having a first riser; a second water intake having a second riser; and a third water intake having a third riser, each riser being disposed inside the interior volume and extend upwardly from the bottom of the collection box.

This disclosure describes techniques to optimize dewatering process in a production facility. A process separates components in a mixture by using a separation device and a dewatering device. The process receives the mixture of liquids and solids, and separates out suspended solids from the mixture of liquids and solids by using the separation device, wherein a liquid with insoluble solids stream is created. The process dewaters the liquid with insoluble solids stream by using the dewatering device to produce a liquid with small particles stream and insoluble solids having particle sizes that are greater than about 20 microns to about 1000 microns.

A fluid transport assembly includes a substantially cylindrical shell having a first closed end and a second closed end and a tube extending from the first closed end to the second closed end. The tube is substantially aligned with an axis of the shell and provides a passage through the shell. The fluid transport assembly also includes a series of concentric cylindrical filters positioned in the cylindrical shell and extending from the first closed end to the second closed end. The series of concentric cylindrical filters defines an input compartment between the filters and the tube and an output compartment between the filters and the cylindrical shell. The series of concentric filters is structured to remove contaminants from a fluid as the fluid flows through the series of concentric filters from the input compartment to the output compartment.

A pressurizing centrifugal dehydrator for removing moisture includes: an inner basket into which slurry is introduced; an outer basket surrounding the inner basket; a pressurization chamber disposed in the outer basket; and a gas supplying portion for supplying gas into the pressurization chamber, wherein the gas supplied to the pressurization chamber is ejected from the pressurization chamber toward a dehydration product positioned between the outer basket and the pressurization chamber.
