A system and method for separating two or more materials, such as a solid from a liquid, or a solid from a slurry, are provided. An exemplary system and method for separating drill cuttings from drilling fluids are provided, as well as a system and method of processing such separated drill cuttings. In another implementation, a system and method is provided for separating gold (or another mineral, element, or solid) from a slurry or liquid that includes mining cuttings.

A non-chemical sustainable treatment reactor process utilizing electrochemistry for treating and reducing certain long chain inorganic and organic compounds including TSS, silica, color, BOD among other mineral compounds in drinking water, grey water and wastewater streams.

The electrocoagulation reactor chamber is built into a modular platform for ease of use and replacement of the metallic material as it used in this electrochemical process. The process is scalable for smaller and larger flow rate application when required using a continuous batch process. The reactor process includes a system controller integrating Artificial intelligence (AI) technology to optimize the system parameters and energy consumption based on the inlet water quality.

An apparatus (1) and method for treating contaminated waste water (2). The apparatus comprises a heater (30), a feed apparatus (11, 12, 13, 14), for supplying contaminated waste water (2) to the heater (30) and a centrifuge (50, 60) downstream of the heater (30). A heat exchanger (20) is also provided which has a first channel (22) and a second channel (24). The first channel (22) is connected in a flow path extending between the feed apparatus (11, 12, 13, 14) and the centrifuge (50, 60); and a waste water outlet (9) from the main centrifuge (60) is fluidly coupled to an inlet of the second channel (24) of the heat exchanger (20).

A grease recovery unit, particularly for use in a food service establishment, for separating oily substances from water in waste food has an inlet 2 connected via a valve 26 to a strainer 24, where solids are collected. The valve 26 is interlinked with the strainer 24 so that the valve closes the inlet 2 when the strainer 24 is removed. Oily substances from the food waste is separated from water by at least one hydrocyclone 30. Water that is separated is passed out of outlet 4 and the oily substances are passed into a collector 3. Fatty substances in the oily substances are held in a fluid state by a silicon heater pad 60.
