21. Sludge Containment Vessel and Method for Use in Concert with A Vacuum Truck in Spill Containment Inventor Terrance Terry R. Thomas II Abstract of the Disclosure

The invention relates to a container for transporting a vehicle therein, which is essentially rectangular in construction with a first and a second end face, two long sides, a bottom, and a top, wherein the container has a floor element, a frame structure, and at least two cover elements, wherein the at least two cover elements cover the end faces, the long sides, and the top of the container when in the closed state, and the floor element covers the bottom of the container, and wherein the frame structure builds on the floor element and, in the region of the top, the at least two cover elements are hinged to the frame structure in such a way that they can be swung upward away from the floor element when the container is in an open state.

A proppant discharge system has a container with an outlet formed at a bottom thereof and a gate slidably affixed at the outlet so as to be movable between a first position covering the outlet to second position opening the outlet, and a support structure having an actuator thereon. The container is removably positioned on the top surface of the support structure. The actuator is engageable with gate so as to move the gate from the first position to the second position. A conveyor underlies the container so as to receive proppant as discharged from the container through the outlet. The container is a ten foot ISO container.

A proppant discharge system has a container with an outlet positioned in a bottom thereof and a gate affixed adjacent the outlet so as to be movable between a first position covering the outlet to a second position opening the outlet, and a support structure having an actuator thereon. The container is removably positioned on the top surface of the support structure. The actuator is engageable with gate so as to move the gate from the first position to the second position. A conveyor underlies the container so as to receive proppant as discharged from the container through the outlet. The container can be a ten foot ISO container.

A prefabricated mobile structure (e.g., substantially in the shape of a rectangular prism) that is substantially shorter than a standard 20-foot shipping container. The mobile structure includes an extension member extending outwardly from each respective upper corner of the structure substantially parallel to the structure's primary axis. Each extension member comprises an attachment point that is adapted to connect with a support portion of a spreader configured to engage with corner fittings of a standard 20-foot freight container. The respective extension members effectively extend the length of the attachment profile of the mobile structure while maintaining a shorter primary body portion. This may allow the prefabricated mobile structure to, for example, be lifted by a lifting device, such as a spreader, that is adapted for lifting a standard 20-foot shipping container while the prefabricated mobile structure's body remains compact enough to be loaded onto a CROP sled for transport.

A ventilation suction member (10; 100) comprises a plate body (34) that has a plate surface (36) from which an outer profiled edge (40) extends and defines a plate edge (42). At least a portion (48; 102) of the outer profiled edge (40) is shaped to be analogous to the profile (32) of the air passage interface (30) of a freight container (12) so that the two profiles are able to be positioned in register with one another. The ventilation suction member (10; 100) also includes a seal member (44) for abutment against the freight container (12) in use, and a ventilation passage (46) formed through the plate body (34). The outer profiled edge (40) and the seal member (44) permit suction of the ventilation suction member (10; 100) to the freight container (12).

Corrugated fluid-tight membrane fluid-tight wall (1) including two series of parallel corrugations forming a plurality of nodes (5) at the crossings of said series of corrugations, wave reinforcements (11) being arranged under the corrugations (3) of the first series of corrugations (3), two successive wave reinforcements (11) in a corrugation (3) each including a hollow sole (15) and a reinforcement portion (16) disposed above the sole (15), the two wave reinforcements (11) being developed in the corrugation (3) on either side of a node (5), a connecting member (13) at the level of the node (5) being nested in the soles (15) of said two wave reinforcements (11) in such a manner as to assemble the two wave reinforcements (11) in an aligned position.

A roll-off container, a system consisting of at least two roll-off containers, an equipment trolley system and the use of a roll-off container are described. The roll-off container comprises a main frame arranged on a platform. The platform comprises attachment rollers on its bottom side and an upward-pointing hook with a transverse strut on a face side. The main frame comprises a bottom, side walls, and roof sections. On an upper end of the main frame on both longitudinal sides, a roof structure is rotatably mounted, wherein the roof structure comprises at least first and second roof-frame sections, each having a width equal to a height of the side walls of the main frame, and a length of which corresponds to a length of the main frame.

A modular logistics system (10) including: a container (12) having a top (14), a base (16), side walls (18) and end walls (20); and a storage frame (23) housed within the container (12) in an operationally ready state, wherein in a first configuration the side walls (18) and end walls (20) are fixed to form an enclosure around the storage frame (23) for transport of the storage system (10), and in a second configuration the end panels (20) are removable to allow extension of the storage frame (23), and at least a portion of one of the side walls (18) is removable to provide access to the storage frame (23) during use, so that the container (12) and the storage frame (23) are transported and installed as a single unit.
