A self-contained mobile wet waste material separator and dewatering for waste water treatment facilities to facilitate the dewatering of solid waste debris that accumulates in screening points within the transfer and treatment process. The mobile wet water waste separator has a screen drum separator rotatably mounted on a wheeled trailer with integrated multiple dewatering and transfer continuous conveyor belts. The wet waste material separator and dewatering provides for dewatering of separated solid waste removed from waste treatment wet wells that define intermediate transfer stations within a municipal waste water collection and treatment system via a collection and transfer vacuum truck.

A capture unit for use with an antimicrobial application unit may include an upstream filter and a downstream filter. The upstream filter may be positioned to receive effluent from the application unit and to filter solid components from the effluent. The resultant upstream effluent filtrate may then be passed downstream to the downstream filter. The downstream filter may be used to filter an antimicrobial component from the upstream effluent filtrate and the resultant downstream effluent filtrate may be suitable for disposal as wastewater discharge. The antimicrobial is preferably a quaternary ammonium compound, is more preferably an alkylpyridinium chloride, and is most preferably cetylpyridinium chloride.

A tensioning apparatus including first and second take-up devices configured to engage opposing ends of a roller of the belt conveyor, wherein each take-up device, a linear guide including a rod and a bearing which slidably supports the rod for linear movement of the rod relative to the bearing, wherein the rod includes a mounting bracket at or towards its distal end for connecting to a shaft of the roller; and a linear actuator comprising: a stationary part coupled to and stationary with respect to the bearing of the linear guide, a moving part coupled to the mounting bracket of the linear guide, and drive means for moving the moving part relative to the stationary part such that the rod of the linear guide slides relative to the bearing.

There is described a system and a process for optimizing and controlling upstream fluid treatment processes using information on fluid characteristics obtained from response variables of a separation device (such as the belt speed or water level of an RBF). This system and process allow for the upstream or downstream treatment processes to be adjusted and optimized against the instantaneous operating conditions of the separation device such that both the pre-treatment and post-treatment processes and the separation system always run at an optimal efficiency. Additionally, since the information obtained from the response variables of the separation device truly reflect the fluid characteristics at the point where the separation system is installed, the same can be used to control a downstream process (for example, the amount of oxygen required in the biological oxidation stage or the sludge retention time in an side stream sludge treatment process such as fermentation or anaerobic digestion).

A filtration device has a primary conveyer tank which is equipped with a first conveyer, a primary drum filter which rotates inside the primary conveyer tank, a secondary conveyer tank which is equipped with a second conveyer and a secondary drum filter which rotates inside the secondary conveyer tank. Liquid in the primary conveyer tank passes through a first opening to flow into the secondary conveyer tank. Clean liquid flowing into a first clean tank is supplied to a low-pressure-side supply system by a first pump. Super-clean liquid having been filtered by the secondary drum filter passes through a second opening to flow into a second clean tank, and then is supplied to a high-pressure-side supply system by a second pump.
