IMPROVED PROFILED STRIP AND METHOD OF FORMING A SEPARATING ASSEMBLY
20220152530 · 2022-05-19 · ·

A method of forming a honeycomb-shaped assembly comprises providing a plurality of profiled strips. Each of the profiled strips comprises two base sides positioned at an obtuse angle relative to each other to form a trough-shaped configuration. An inner projecting flange and an outer projecting flange extend from the base sides. One of the inner projecting flange and outer projecting flange comprises an groove. Two connecting sides each extend along a plane from one of the two base sides and each includes at least one free end including a projection. The plurality of profiled strips are stacked to form an octagonal honeycomb configuration by inserting the projection of a connecting side of one of the plurality of profiled strips into the groove of a base side of another of the plurality of profiled strips. At least a portion of the projection is received by the groove in an interlocking manner.

COALESCING MEDIA FOR HYDRONIC AIR AND SEDIMENT SEPARATION DEVICE

A coalescing removal separator includes a separator tank and a coalescing media. The separator tank has a separator input that receives a fluid flowing through an HVAC system having entrained gas and solid particles, has a tank wall that forms a volume/chamber inside the separator tank to process the fluid, and has a separator output that provides processed fluid having at least some, most or substantially all of the entrained gas and solid particles removed. The coalescing media is arranged in the volume/chamber of the separator tank, has a series of vertically aligned corrugated perforated sheets substantially filling the volume/chamber of the separator tank and removes the at least some, most or substantially all of the entrained gas and solid particles from the fluid.

SETTLER WITH A SETTLER PLATE THAT INCLUDES A HOLLOW SUPPORT

The present disclosure relates to settler plates for a plate settler. The settler plates generally include a hollow support with a hollow interior to receive clarified liquid from a flow channel between adjacent settler plates. An orifice is formed through the hollow support to direct clarified liquid from the flow channel into the hollow interior. The orifice can be positioned such that clarified liquid can flow upwardly out of the flow channel and downwardly through the orifice into the hollow interior. The hollow support can be integrally formed with the settler plate. For example, the hollow support can be formed by bending a tab extending from an end of the settler plate. The tab can be bent into a hollow support with a cross section that is generally polygonal.

Apparatus and methods to remove solids from hydrocarbon streams

Apparatus, processes, and systems for removal of solids from a hydrocarbon stream. The present disclosure utilizes a surfactant to reduce interfacial tension between a hydrocarbon phase and a water (or aqueous) phase to promote solids to be pulled by gravity out of the hydrocarbon phase and into the water phase.

PLATE ASSEMBLY AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURING FOR USE IN WATER TREATMENT
20220212126 · 2022-07-07 ·

Various systems, apparatus, and methods used to remove solids from water are provided. A plate assembly for a plate settler assembly is provided which includes a plate body with a plate body thickness. The plate assembly also includes a first support plate attached to the plate body on a first axis extending between the first and second end of the plate body. The plate assembly may further include a second support plate attached to the plate body on a second axis extending between the first and second end. The plate assembly may also include a stiffener or a central stiffener attached to the plate body on a third axis. The plate assembly may still further include a flow control plate along the first end. The thickness of the support plates, stiffener, and flow control plate are greater than the plate body thickness. A corresponding method of manufacture is provided.

Trash collecting underground stormwater management system
11326336 · 2022-05-10 · ·

An underground stormwater management system comprising a sediment settling chamber, a plurality of stormwater management cells, and a trash capturing net. The sediment settling chamber has a sediment settling chamber floor and a discharge port located at a higher elevation than the sediment settling chamber floor. The plurality of stormwater management cells are located adjacent each other, and each cell comprises a body portion and an internal region, and is adapted to permit passage of stormwater into and out of the internal region of such cell. The plurality of stormwater management cells combine to form a stormwater management chamber downstream of the sediment settling chamber and in fluid communication with the sediment settling chamber. The trash capturing net is at least partially located within the stormwater management chamber and is adapted and configured to capture trash and debris in stormwater discharged from the discharge port.
