NUTRIENT CONCENTRATION AND WATER RECOVERY SYSTEM AND ASSOCIATED METHODS
A nutrient concentration and water recovery system includes a first suspended solids settling tank configured to receive a flow stream that includes a waste stream with a sludge stream. A first centrifugal pump is coupled to the first suspended solids settling tank. The first centrifugal pump having corrosion resistant wetted parts and variable speed drives to transfer or pressurize process flow streams. A first level transmitter coupled to the first centrifugal pump that provides output signals in response to a level of a process material within the first suspended solids settling tank. The first level transmitter is mounted in the first suspended solids settling tank. A first flow transmitter coupled to the first level transmitter is configured to measure a specific volume of material transferred out of the first suspended solids settling tank. A first pump is coupled to the first flow meter and configured to transfer a flush water that includes suspended solids and inorganics. A vibrating screen is coupled to the first pump. A process tank is coupled to the submersible pump. A sedimentation removal system and a removal device coupled to the sedimentation removal system are provided and configured to remove inorganizes out of a suspension.
PROPPANT RECOVERY UNIT
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.
Method of producing a cooled syngas of improved quality
A system and method for processing unconditioned syngas first removes solids and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOC), then removes volatile organic compounds (VOC), and then removes at least one sulfur containing compound from the syngas. Additional processing may be performed depending on such factors as the source of syngas being processed, the products, byproducts and intermediate products desired to be formed, captured or recycled and environmental considerations.

Storm water drain system and components thereof and methods of use
A method of removing sediment from fluid flow within a storm water drain pit by deflecting flow entering the pit towards the side walls of the pit by one or more deflectors. This reduces the energy of the fluid flow and promotes settling of sediment within the catch pit. Each deflector is preferably of a concave form and may be located in a storm water drain pit bag or suspended. A removable catch basin receptacle for a storm water drain pit includes a container has a low flow outlet defining a fluid path for fluid at a first level within the container to a second level, higher than the first level, outside the container. An overflow path provides a fluid flow path out of the container at a level higher than the first or second level.
Bag for Pressure Leaf Filter
A leaf filter bag for a leaf (110) of a pressure leaf filter (100) has a first sheet portion (50), adjacent to a second sheet portion (60). The first sheet portion (50) is connected to the second sheet portion (60) at a first edge (10), a second edge (20) and a third edge (30). Forth edges of the sheet portions define an openable and closable edge (40) which has an open position and a closed position, which allows inserting a frame (122) of the leaf (110) into the leaf filter bag (1) through an opening formed by the openable and closable edge (40) in the open position. A zipper (42) closure (41) is provided at the openable and closable edge (40), and a further hook-and-loop fastener closure may be provided.
DISPOSABLE DENTAL WASTE FILTER DEVICE
A disposable dental waste filter device has a body having a receiving end, and a separable cap having a tip end, the body for receiving and capturing therein amalgam that enters into the body through the tip end and the separable cap. A disposable dental waste filter device also has a body having a receiving end, a central lumen for receiving and capturing amalgam, a filter, and a circular leg portion having an exterior channel, and a separable cap having a tip end, a circular outer rim having a circular end ridge portion with the ridge portion adapted to be inserted into the exterior channel of the body for a snap fit engagement between the cap and the body, the body for receiving and capturing therein amalgam that enters into the body through the tip end and the separable cap.
Method of producing sulfur-depleted syngas
A system and method for processing unconditioned syngas first removes solids and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOC), then removes volatile organic compounds (VOC), and then removes at least one sulfur containing compound from the syngas. Additional processing may be performed depending on such factors as the source of syngas being processed, the products, byproducts and intermediate products desired to be formed, captured or recycled and environmental considerations.

FILTER SYSTEMS FOR SEPARATING MICROCARRIERS FROM CELL CULTURE SOLUTIONS
A filter assembly for separating microcarriers from a fluid medium includes a collapsible container bounding a sterile compartment adapted to hold a fluid. An inlet port is attached to the container through which fluid flows into the compartment. An outlet port is attached to the container through which fluid flows out of the compartment. A filter is disposed within the compartment, the filter dividing the compartment into an inlet chamber that is fluidly coupled with the inlet port and an outlet chamber that is fluidly coupled with the outlet port, the filter allowing a medium to pass therethrough but preventing microcarriers disposed in the medium from passing therethrough.
