A dynamic filtration system and method for solid-fluid separation to eliminate or substantially reduce media blinding includes: a fluid inlet through which to receive an inlet flow of fluid to be filtered; a filter membrane; a rotatable mechanical barrier, disposed within an outer shell, to contain the filter membrane and through which to receive and filter the inlet flow of the fluid, the rotatable mechanical barrier configured to rotate dynamically along an axis, to create a high shear flow, thereby to prevent an accumulation of solids on the filter membrane, and whereby a resultant centrifugal force propels any solids and slurry onto the outer shell to be continuously removed from the dynamic filter system; a fluid outlet through which to disperse a filtered fluid; and a solids and slurry outlet through which to disperse solids and slurry collected in filtration when propelled to the outer shell of the mechanical barrier.

Treating fluids recovered from well operations using a graphene oxide coated membrane

Systems and methods using: a membrane unit to treat fluids recovered from an oil and gas well are provided. The membrane unit may include a membrane having a porous substrate at. least partially coated with graphene oxide, making the membrane hydrophilic. The membrane separates water from other components within a fluid stream. The membrane unit may include an inlet to receive a fluid stream into the membrane unit. The fluid stream may be pretreated prior to reaching the membrane unit The membrane unit may also include a first outlet in fluid communication with one side of the membrane and a second outlet in fluid communication with the opposite side of the membrane.
