摘要:
A process for separating clean water which has an impurities content of less than 100 ppm from waste materials such as farm manure is disclosed. In a first step, a plate separator splits the waste material stream into a first effluent fraction and a first solids fraction. The first solids fraction then undergoes two stages of pressing to increase the solids contents to about 30 to 40 percent which makes it suitable for granulation or pelletizing. The first effluent fraction is treated in successive stages with various chemical agents resulting in the removal of most of the solids and inorganic impurities from the effluent to achieve drinkable water purity.

A method and apparatus for dewatering an aqueous coal slurry includes imparting high shear forces to the aqueous coal slurry in the presence of a peptizing agent to render coal particles hydrophobic by stripping clay from the coal particles and peptizing the clay in the aqueous medium of the slurry. The slurry is separating to recover coal particles and the aqueous medium is draining medium from the hydrophobic surface of the coal particles.

The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for washing a crude lignin slurry (5) formed from plant based raw material, wherein the method comprises separating a soluble carbohydrate containing fraction (10) from the crude lignin slurry (5) by using displacement washing in at least one solid-liquid separation stage (6) so that the crude lignin slurry is prepressed, washed and pressed, and recovering a solid fraction (11) and the soluble carbohydrate containing fraction (10). Further, the invention relates to the soluble carbohydrate containing fraction and the solid fraction, and their uses.

The present technology relates generally to fluid filtration systems. In particular, several embodiments are directed toward compartmentally expandable rotating belt filters and associated systems and methods. In some embodiments, for example, a filtering system for contaminated fluid includes a first fluid filtering chamber having a first filter belt movably positioned therein and a second fluid filtering chamber having a second filter belt movably positioned therein. The first filter belt can be operable in parallel with the second filter belt. The system can further include a sensor configured to sense a condition related a volume of the contaminated fluid, a speed of flow of the contaminated fluid, or a level of contaminants in the contaminated fluid. A controller can be configured to initiate, stop, or adjust fluid flow to the first fluid filtering chamber and second fluid filtering chamber individually in response to the sensed condition.

An apparatus for effecting separation of liquid from solids or solids from liquid comprising a frame supporting a belt or belts held by and between rollers with drive means so as to progress each belt through a collection zone to a compression zone, where at the collection zone the belt or belts are positioned and orientated and shaped and caused to be changed in shape from an upstream position to a downstream position, providing thereby a supporting shape to hold liquid, one part of which shape is defined at a downstream location by a coming together of facing surfaces of one or more of the belts.

Disclosed herein are a method and apparatus for removing liquid from a permeable material, such as slurries, sludges, porous solids and permeable foams. The method and apparatus involve constraining the material to be deliquified such that the material interfaces with at least one surface which is permeable to the liquid to be removed and then heating the material at one or more locations remote from the permeable surface or surfaces. Such constraining and heating of the material causes the in situ vaporization of the liquid in the vicinity of the remote location or locations. The vaporized liquid expands and forces at least some of the remaining unvaporized liquid through the permeable surface or surfaces. Because only a portion of the liquid contained in the material must be vaporized and such vaporized portion is used to remove at least some of the remaining unvaporized liquid (thereby avoiding the necessity of vaporizing all of the liquid contained in the material), significant reductions in the energy required to substantially deliquify the material may be realized through the use of the method and apparatus disclosed herein.
摘要:
A belt pressure filter comprises a gravity dewatering zone for dewatering a sludge as a function of the gravity and a forced dewatering zone for a forced dewatering of the sludge by means of external pressure. An endless filter belt travels from the gravity dewatering zone to the forced dewatering zone. The coagulated sludge is supplied onto the filter belt by means of the gravity dewatering zone. Information representing the level of the sludge deposited on the belt is obtained as an information concerning the dewatering ability of the coagulated sludge supplied onto the filter belt. The traveling speed of the filter belt is calculated and controlled on the basis of the above described level information which represents the layer thickness and hence also the solids concentration. The optimum amount of a dosage of a coagulating agent is determined based on the traveling speed of the filter belt as calculated. As a result, the water content in a dewatered cake is maintained low and constant, while an optimal amount of coagulating agent most suited to the sludge characteristics at that time is added to the material without wasting any excess coagulating agent.
