    Abstract: An apparatus for cleaning waste collection systems of solid materials. The apparatus is capable of cleaning waste systems in two known ways. First, a pumping method uses normal and injected water flow to suspend the solids in a slurry. A submersible pump moves the slurry from a collection point up to a pressurized container where the water content of the slurry is decanted and reused as injection water while the particulate material settles to the bottom of the pressurized container. Second, a vacuum system may be used to move the slurry from the waste system to the waste container. The vacuum system creates a negative pressure differential, causing material to be pulled through a vacuum tube and into the waste container. When the container becomes substantially full of solid particles, it may be emptied at a dumpsite.

    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to a method to determine one or more properties in a water storage facility and/or a water treatment facility. In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a method to determine one or more chemical and/or physical properties in a water storage facility vessel and/or a water treatment facility vessel and then use such one or more chemical and/or physical properties to determine where, if need be, any sand or other sediment needs to be removed from any such water storage facility vessels and/or a water treatment facility vessels.

    Abstract: Provided is a method and system for separating components of a solid and liquid mixture. In an embodiment, the method includes de-sanding a treatment system. Digesters, clarifiers, wastewater apparatuses, self-contained processing tanks, process tanks, and the like, accumulate sand and other undesired inorganic components that ultimately prevent filtering, cleaning, and processing of the solid and liquid mixtures therein. The mixture in the treatment system may initially include sand, water, and biosolids. The mixture may be routed into a pressurized tank to separate the inorganic solids and liquid components based on their density and buoyancy. A de-sanded mixture may then proceed through the remaining cleaning process.
