A straining apparatus is provided for installation on a container, the container having a cavity and a rim. The straining apparatus includes a body portion defining a volume, the body portion made of a screen material configured for insertion into the cavity. A collar portion defines an opening to the body portion and is configured to fold over the rim when the body portion is disposed in the cavity. A closure mechanism is coupled to the collar portion. The closure mechanism is configured to face away from the container when the collar portion is folded over the rim, thereby allowing convenient access to the collar portion. The closure mechanism is lockably adjustable and configured such that it holds the collar portion against the container in a predetermined position below the rim.

An apparatus and method for separating solid matter from liquid matter includes a container, a gas buster, a trough, a winch, and a filter. The gas buster is positioned above the container to dissipate energy associated with incoming solid matter and liquid matter. The trough is positioned below an outlet of the gas buster and has a bottom sloping from a high end to a low end with an opening at the low end. The filter is positionable below the opening of the trough in a way that the solid matter and the liquid matter passing from the opening of the trough enter the filter wherein the liquid matter passes through the filter and into the container and the solid matter is collected in the filter. The filter is removable from the container to permit the amount of solid matter collected in the filter to be determined.

The present invention provides an oil slurry filter, a filter unit including the oil slurry filter, a multiple-filter system including the oil slurry filter, and a multiple-stage filter system including the oil slurry filter. Due to the use of the filter component of flexible texture in the oil slurry filter of the present invention, the problems that the filter material is easily blocked by high-viscosity colloidal impurities, the regeneration efficiency of the filter is poor and the filtration efficiency is low are solved, and it is possible to make the backwash treatment of the filter residue more convenient and improve the regeneration efficiency of the filter. The present invention also provides a filtering process using the oil slurry filter to ensure long-term stable operation of the oil slurry filtering process.

A storm water capture and filtration system may secure in a catch basin or other area subject to flows of water from streets, channels, and the like as a result of run off from storms. A filter system may include a capture portion including attachment mechanisms, a funnel, various supports, and a filter hanger designed and calculated to capture all water entering a storm water inlet and directing it toward a bag filter. A gap is provided between a funnel and filter hanger in order to provide accommodation for overflow, while an anti-backflow skirt on the filter bag resists flushing of captured pollution out of the bag in overflow condition.

A fluid filter device and method are disclosed. The fluid filter device includes a first disk having an opening forming an inlet and a second disk having an opening forming an outlet. A cylindrically shaped soft housing is disposed adjacent the first disk at one end and engaging with the second disk at its other end. A first cylindrical shaped permeable bag filter is encased by the soft housing. The bag filter has a closed end disposed adjacent the outlet, and the bag filter has an open end coupling with the first disk to form a seal around the inlet such that liquid entering the inlet permeates through the bag filter to a region between the bag filter and the soft housing before exiting the outlet.

A reductant storage system for an internal combustion engine system includes a storage container having a bottom wall, a top wall opposite the bottom wall, an opening extending through the top wall, and a reservoir formed by a hollow interior of the storage container; a filter assembly; and a header assembly. The filter assembly extends through the opening and is configured to seal the opening and includes a filtering material. The header assembly extends through the opening and inside the filter assembly. The header assembly includes: (i) a first sensor configured to measure a quality of the reductant contained within the filter assembly and (ii) a second sensor configured to measure a level of the reductant contained within the filter assembly.
