A mixer support assembly for use in an integrated cover and mixer apparatus and anaerobic digester system incorporating same provided. The digester system includes a tank with an integrated cover and mixer apparatus which provides a completely or substantially gas tight enclosure for the collection of biogas. The integrated cover and mixer apparatus includes a cover, a mixer, and a mixer support assembly for supporting the mixer. The mixer support assembly includes a float ring and a support body that is selectively removable from the float ring. The support body is attached to the float ring by way of a clamping arrangement.

A self-deploying float assembly to support mechanical equipment such as aerators and mixers for use in water, wastewater and process water stream treatment basins and a method of installing same.

A device and method for injection of oxygen-rich gas into a body of liquid with oxygen recycling are disclosed. The device comprises a rotary hollow shaft vertically passing through a float partially immersed in the liquid, an impeller attached to the lower end of the rotary hollow shaft, a columnar structure, surrounding the rotary hollow shaft, mounted on the bottom side of the float and vertically extending into the liquid, a gas diffusion chamber formed by the columnar structure, the float and the liquid surface under the float, and a gas injection conduit passing through the float for delivering the oxygen gas into the gas diffusion chamber, wherein a vacuum is generated in the body of the liquid around the impeller when the impeller is driven to rotate, so that the oxygen-rich gas in the gas diffusion chamber is sucked into the body of the liquid and mixed therein.

An evaporator is provided for evaporating water from an ambient body of water having a water surface. The evaporator includes a housing that has a proximal end proximate to the water surface, a distal end distal to the water surface, and a housing air flow channel directed toward the water surface. The housing is disposed on a support, such as a float assembly, that positions the housing above the water surface. The evaporator also includes an air flow induction device, preferably an impeller, disposed to direct an air flow stream from the distal end toward the proximal end through the housing air flow channel and toward the water surface so that the air contacts the water. The impeller preferably is made of a fiberglass material. The support preferably includes at least one float assembly air flow channel that receives the air flow stream from the housing and directs it outwardly from the evaporator. Water injection devices such as spray nozzles or atomizing nozzles preferably are disposed in the float assembly channel or channels to inject the water into the air flow stream.

A floating equipment, for injection of a gas into liquid effluents or waste water, and more particularly of a gas rich in oxygen into a basin from the surface, including the following elements: a driving device, intended to be disposed over the liquid, provided with a vertical output shaft (8), equipped at its end with a propeller (6) immersed in the liquid a pre-mixing device (5) comprising an injection device (7) positioned above or below a mobile aerator (9) with inclined blades, the propeller being situated at the end of the shaft, under the pre-mixing reactor.

A floating chemical dispenser is provided, which includes: a body portion having a first chamber for receiving solid chemicals, a second chamber for receiving a floating member, and at least one first hole for communicating the first chamber with an external environment, an opening is disposed at one end of the body portion, and the opening is communicated with the first chamber; and a cover, configured to close the opening of the body portion; wherein the cover is detachably connected with the body portion via a first locking mechanism, and the first locking mechanism has a locking position and an unlocking position, and is configured to move between the locking position and the unlocking position via pressing and rotating the cover by a user, so as to control locking or unlocking of the cover and the body portion. Therefore, safety performance of the floating chemical dispenser can be improved.

An apparatus for oxygenating water includes a discharge chamber with a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, an electronic unit coupled to the discharge chamber, and a power source configured to power the electronic unit. The electronic unit is configured to interact with a fluid disposed within the discharge chamber. The electronic unit is configured to accelerate the fluid and oxygenate the water to produce oxygenated water.

A floating dispenser having an external float or an internal float for supporting a cartridge or cartridges for floatingly delivering a dispersant or dispersants to a body of water with the floating dispenser having cartridges rotationally positionable with respect to one another to control the rate of dispensing while the dispenser floats in an upright condition with the floating dispenser changing its flotation orientation in response to consumption of the dispersant or dispersants in the a cartridge to thereby provide a visual alert to replace a spent cartridge with a fresh cartridge. In addition the inventions described herein permit changing the dispensing nature of the system from a multiple dispensing system to a single dispensing system without changing the floating characteristics of the floating dispensers through replacement of a dispersant in one of the cartridges with an inert or ballast material that has no effect on the water characteristics.
