The present invention relates to a multistage fiber filtering apparatus capable of selectively filtering depending on turbidity of raw water, in which a first filtration mode where the raw water passes through a fiber ball medium, a second filtration mode where the raw water passes through a fiber yarn medium, or a third filtration mode where the raw water passes through both of the fiber yarn medium and the fiber ball medium may be selectively operated.

A modular, compact, mobile, dewatering and liquid-liquid separation and filtration system. The system processes incoming influents of slurries, solids and liquids at a high speed of operation and in large volumes. System is capable of being modularly scaled, allowing for a continuous steady state operation accommodating any slurry flow rate in a synchronous dynamic equilibrium process. Components and modules integrated into the system include a dynamic filtration clarifier 101 (DFC), a nested-filter dewatering cell 115 (NDC) and/or a compression filter press 125 (CFP). The DFC performs the primary dewatering phase of separating the primary water from the solids creating sludge. The NDC further breaks apart the solids of the sludge, removing interstitial water in a secondary dewatering phase, further lowering the moisture content of the sludge, while the CFP removes the tertiary water from the remaining solid particles by pressing the particles into a solid cake.

The present invention discloses a method for self-cleaning filters without having to open the filter housing. Wash nozzles are integrated with the filter housings such that when the filters are clogged, both back-wash and regular washing can be performed with practically no down time. Moreover, without opening the filter housing, the hazardous components of the fluid to be filtered can be contained and dealt with before they escape the filter housing, thereby significantly reduces the environmental impact and harm to the working crew.

The present invention relates to: an improved metal filter having a plurality of apertures which are micropores having a taper shape by which the diameters thereof become narrower from an upstream end towards a downstream end in a state where the directions of the apertures are perpendicular to, or are at an acute angle with respect to the flowing direction of a fluid containing solid foreign substances; and a permanent filter assembly having a filtering pipe connected, in the form of a pitot tube, part-way along a flow pipe in which the fluid containing foreign substances flows, and having the improved metal filter communicatably mounted on the upstream end of the filtering pipe.

The present invention relates to a multistage fiber filtering apparatus capable of selectively filtering depending on turbidity of raw water, in which a first filtration mode where the raw water passes through a fiber ball medium, a second filtration mode where the raw water passes through a fiber yarn medium, or a third filtration mode where the raw water passes through both of the fiber yarn medium and the fiber ball medium may be selectively operated.

The present disclosure relates to a separation device to separate contaminants from contaminated water. It comprises a container to receive the contaminated water. The container further comprises a contaminated water inlet, a filter, a presser for compressing and/or dewatering contaminants separated from the contaminated water, and a contaminant outlet. The container further comprises a gas inlet for generating gas bubbles into the contaminated water to further separate contaminants from the contaminated water. The present disclosure relates to a use of such a separation device and a method of separating contaminants from contaminated water.

A filter assembly includes an inner filter basket comprising an elongated tubular portion having a first open end and a first closed end. The tubular portion defines a plurality of perforations therethrough. An outer surface of the tubular portion is seamless. A first annular brim extends outwardly from the open end of the tubular portion. The filter assembly also includes an outer filter basket having a second open end in which the inner filter basket is received. A second annular brim extends outwardly from the second open end of the outer filter basket. The first and second brims are configured to retain a fabric filter bag between the inner filter basket and the outer filter basket.

Disclosed herein a method and an apparatus for disinfecting water. The method comprises pumping the water into a top disinfection section comprising a water distributing tray and a first filtration system, filtering a first set of particles from the water, discharging particles from the first set of particles to a sewage from a bottom of a respective filter box of the plurality of filter boxes by pumping a high-pressure stream of water to a back side of the respective strainer, generating filtered water by filtering a second set of particles from the water by passing the water through a bottom disinfection section, the bottom disinfection section comprising a plurality of filtering layers, removing the second set of particles settled in the bottom disinfection section utilizing a vacuum-cleaning system, and reducing microorganisms and ammonia gases in the filtered water by aerating the filtered water comprising exposing the filtered water to a high-pressure stream of air utilizing a plurality of fans.

Provided are a sewage treatment system using a multistage long-fiber filtering device, and a treatment method thereof. The sewage treatment system uses at least one pressurized long-fiber filtering device and at least one submerged-type long-fiber filtering device to treat sewage by a direct filtration method. The pressurized long-fiber filtering device treats sewage by direct filtration, and the submerged-type long-fiber filtering device treats the sewage by concentrating backwashing water of filtered sewage and dehydrating and disposing of the backwashing water. The pressurized long-fiber filtering devices and the submerged-type long-fiber filtering devices are respectively provided in a modular including a plurality of the devices in a symmetrical structure to each other. Accordingly, as sewage is treated by direct filtration by using the pressurized long-fiber filtering device and the submerged-type long-fiber filtering device, greenhouse gases may be reduced without microbial treatment.
