Abstract: Hydrocleaning apparatus for pipelines and the like includes a frame capable of advancing lengthwise of the pipeline, such frame carrying a plurality of liquid jetting modules which, in use, are disposed in an array around the pipeline surface to enable cleaning of the entire surface to be effected. The frame can be opened up to allow the apparatus to be fitted to or removed from a continuous pipeline. The frame arrangement and module mounting system are designed to provide good cleaning efficiency and proper orientation of the various modules in spite of pipeline irregularities including out-of-round conditions, uneven coating thicknesses and wrinkles. A pivoting module mount helps to maintain cleaning efficiency in the case where thick coatings are being removed. The frame drive wheels are disposed forwardly of the modules to avoid contamination of the cleaned surfaces by deposits that may build up on the wheels. A shroud system connected to the modules prevents substantial escape of contaminating liquids and debris into the environment.

Abstract: A system and method for removing asbestos and other hazardous solids from a slurry collected during removal of coatings from pipelines, equipment and other structures. The slurry is collected in a collection pan that is attached to a shroud of a hydrocleaning machine. Contaminated air and the slurry is transferred to a vacuum hopper. The contaminated air is removed from the vacuum hopper. The contaminated air is filtered to remove solid particles. Solid particles are preferably separated from the slurry by passing the slurry through various stages of filters. Pumps are used to transfer the slurry from the collection pan through the filter stages. A first flocculent is injected into the slurry to coagulate the solid particles into individual masses. A second flocculent can be injected into the slurry in order to coagulate a majority of the remaining solid particles. The coagulated masses of solid particles are removed by passing the slurry through a weir or a screen shaker. The slurry discharged from the weir or screen shaker is then passed through further filters.

Abstract: A system and method for removing asbestos and other hazardous solids from a slurry collected during removal of insulation from pipelines, equipment and other structures. The slurry is collected in a collection pan that is attached to a shroud of a hydrocleaning machine. Solid particles are separated from the slurry by passing the slurry through various stages of filters. Pumps are used to transfer the slurry from the collection pan through the filter stages. A first flocculent is injected into the slurry to coagulate the solid particles into individual masses. A second flocculent is injected into the slurry, downstream from the injection point of the first flocculent, in order to coagulate a majority of the remaining solid particles. The coagulated masses of solid particles are removed by passing the slurry through a screen shaker. The slurry discharged from the screen shaker is then passed through further filters.
