An effluent collector includes a filtrate receiving portion having a filtrate opening, and a pressate receiving portion having a pressate opening. The effluent collector includes a diverter barrier adjustably positioned above the pressate receiving portion. The diverter barrier is configured to adjustably direct at least a portion of a flow path toward or away from the pressate receiving portion.

A dual deck vibratory separator is provided having an improved mud flow path that provides for higher flow capacities overall is provided. The shaker has a lighter basket possessing a full-size upper deck extending across the width and length of the basket. Operational efficiency and operability is improved with flow deflecting and energy absorbing plates disposed intermediate along the mud flow path. The screen assemblies are secured with improved wedges, improved wedge guides, screen cushions, and cushion stops on transverse structure members for longer screen and slide life. An optional vacuum tray on the finishing trays further enhances recovery of drilling fluid. Maintenance, when required, is improved through ease of upper screen removal for inspection and access. Inclined side windows on each side of the basket may provide cleaning and viewing access.

A rotary drum filter comprising one or more divider plates disposed between the drum's outer surface and grids disposed radially outward from the drum's outer surface. The divider plates are desirably diagonally disposed along the drum's outer surface and have at least one end disposed near a drainage hole. The divider plates and open sections under the grids between circumferentially adjacent grids permits filtrate to flow under the grids. The divider plates and open sections under the grids permit the filtrate to flow into the nearest drainage hole while increasing the run underneath the grids, thereby permitting more filtrate to exit through a limited number of drainage holes.

Methods and apparatuses for screening are provided. Embodiments include a screen basket apparatus for screening material, comprising a grid frame having a plurality of openings arranged in a lattice and a plurality of screening cartridge assemblies affixed to the grid frame to cover the respective openings of the grid frame. The screening cartridge assembly includes a case and a screen assembly fitted into the case, and may be affixed to a set of transversal member of the grid frame. The case may be formed of a single injection molded piece integrally formed by injection molding one of a polyurethane or a thermoset polymer. The screening elements together form a generally continuous screening surface across the exterior of the grid frame, which reduces blinding and is resistant to wear and tear.

An effluent collector includes a filtrate receiving portion having a filtrate opening, and a pressate receiving portion having a pressate opening. The effluent collector includes a diverter barrier adjustably positioned above the pressate receiving portion. The diverter barrier is configured to adjustably direct at least a portion of a flow path toward or away from the pressate receiving portion.

Embodiments of the present disclosure include a screen basket apparatus includes a substantially vertical cylindrical frame and a synthetic screening surface secured to the frame. The synthetic screening surface may be configured to separate carbon or resin from a slurry of a carbon-in-leach, carbon-in-pulp, resin-in-leach, or resin-in-pulp material as fluid flows from outside to inside the screen basket apparatus such that carbon or resin is retained on an external surface of the synthetic screening surface. The cylindrical frame may be a grid frame and the synthetic screening surface may include a plurality of replaceable screen assemblies attached to the grid frame. The grid frame may include a plurality of openings and each of the plurality of openings is configured to receive a respective one of the plurality of replaceable screen assemblies. The synthetic screening surface may include injected molded thermoplastics, thermoset polyurethanes, and/or other polymeric materials.

A filtering device and a tableware washing apparatus, the filtering device includes a rotary filter and a drive assembly. The rotary filter includes a columnar filtering screen configured to filter water from a washing process of the tableware washing apparatus; wherein a diameter of an external circle defined by each mesh of the columnar filtering screen is between 0.2 to 0.5 mm. The drive assembly is connected to the rotary filter and configured to drive the columnar filtering screen to rotate relative to contents within the columnar filtering screen at a relative speed of 100 to 1000 r/min, for separating at least a portion of residue on the columnar filtering screen from the columnar filtering screen.
