Provided is a toothed drum type oil recovery device, which includes: a recovery drum having a center coupled to a rotary shaft and having a plurality of tooth units formed around an outer circumference thereof, wherein one side of the recovery drum is disposed in the water to which oil is spilled so that the oil is recovered by the tooth unit at one side of the recovery drum according to the rotation; and a separation unit containing an oil separating liquid and disposed at the other side of the recovery drum, wherein when the tooth unit moves onto the oil separating liquid at the other side of the recovery drum according to the rotation of the recovery drum, the oil separating liquid is introduced into a space between the tooth units adjacent to each other by means of a capillary action to separate the oil from the tooth unit.

A molded body includes a shape memory material. The molded body has a three-dimensional surface structure which, in a permanent shape, at least in part has a superhydrophobic surface and/or a hydrophobic surface, on which water droplet contact angles of 120° to 150° are found.

A hydrocarbon removal apparatus includes a plurality of fibers and a backing substrate. Each of the plurality of fibers includes a proximal end and a distal end. Each proximal end is secured to the backing substrate.

The cleaner according to the invention includes a body part, which includes curved wiping tongues. The lower part of the body is the cleaner's curved lower plate and in its upper part are upper plates and an attachment plate, which is attached to the body of the collector by an attachment beam. The construction of the collector is based on discs surrounding a drum and permitting water to flow through them, to which are attached plastic rings and, attached to them, a brush ring formed of brushes extending over the curved rear wall. The invention also discloses a cleaner, by means of which the brushes are cleaned, which, for example, are attached to a V-shaped brush structure, in which there is a plastic bodied brush ring, and in the cleaner there is a point-shaped plate and its bent point shape.

This application relates to a multifunctional recovery apparatus of shore adhesion oils. The multifunctional recovery apparatus of shore adhesion oils removing and recovering oil spilling and sticking at a shore is mounted on a four-wheel vehicle. A skimmer assembly separating oil sticking to the surface of rocks at a shore, and absorbing and recovering an oil spill at the shore is installed at the front of the four-wheel vehicle. The skimmer assembly includes a rotary skimmer having a rotary roller separating oil, and a vacuum suction skimmer suctioning oil floating on a water surface. The rotary skimmer and the vacuum suction skimmer may be selectively or simultaneously used, if necessary.

A method for removing plants (6) or other material existing in water by means of a collector head connected to rest on a work machine moving on land and/or in a water system, whereby the collector head is moved in the method in water in the plant layer, and the collected plants (6) are transferred by means of a pump (13) and transfer pipes (3) included in the collector head either onto land or to a cargo area floating on water, such as a barge. By means of at least two feeder drums (14) placed in the collector head and rotatable on their own shafts (11), water plants are shredded and led in the method from between said feeder drums (14) onto a pump (13) located behind said feeder drums, whereby said drums make use of conveyor/shredder members (8) located one over the other at a distance from each other, at least the outermost tips of which are directed forward in the direction of rotation

Disclosed is a spilled oil recovery apparatus, wherein the spilled oil recovery apparatus includes a body configured to provide buoyancy so that the spilled oil recovery apparatus floats on a surface of the sea so as to separate oily water including a mixture of seawater and spilled oil into the seawater and the spilled oil, and a spilled oil storage including a storage body connected to the body so as to store recovered spilled oil, and the body includes an oily water inlet configured to form a space so that the oily water on the sea is introduced into the oily water inlet, a spilled oil separator provided to communicate with the oily water inlet and to separate the spilled oil from the introduced oily water, and a temporary spilled oil storage configured to transfer the spilled oil from the spilled oil separator to the spilled oil storage.

The present invention relates to an algae collection device and, in particular, to an algae collection device using an escalator-type lift equipped with a screen having a level state. The present invention may collect algae using an escalator-type lift equipped with a screen having a level state while the algae do not move down. The present invention may effectively collect, into a collection box, the algae transported on the escalator-type lift by means of compressed air generated by a compressor.

An oil spill retrieval system for retrieving spilled oil from the surface of a body of water and including a boat having means for collecting the oil from the water surface and having means for processing the collected oil. A pontoon boat that collects spilled oil from the ocean through a hair roller system suspended between the pontoons. Human hair is present within a porous casing of the roller and Oil floating on the water enters the porous casing whereupon the oil is absorbed by the human hair, wherein the absorbed oil is pass through one or more pipes to go into large pontoons which are the main oil collecting tanks on the pontoon boat.
