| 20090078659 | Filtering Apparatus - A filtering apparatus for purifying cooking oil is provided. The filtering apparatus comprises a housing, a filter housing including a filter and a first conduit in communication with a deep fryer for extraction of cooking oil requiring purifying from the deep fryer. The apparatus further comprises a pump for pumping cooking oil through the first conduit, a valve assembly in flow communication with the pump, and a second conduit in flow communication with the pump which transports cooking oil to the filter housing. The filtering apparatus also comprises one or more heating cables attached to the first and second conduits and located adjacent the pump and valve assembly, and a thermostat in communication with a thermostat probe attached to the first and second conduits and the valve assembly and pump, whereby use of the thermostat prevents activation of said one or more heating cables when activation is not required. | 03-26-2009 |
| 20100044323 | SEPARATION MEDIA SLURRY TANK - A tank adapted to be used for suspending separation media slurry before transferring the separation media slurry to a column or a container comprises:

| 20110315639 | APPARATUS AND METHODS FOR HANDLING CATALYST SLURRIES - Apparatus and methods for handling spent catalyst, wherein a slurry comprising the catalyst may be rapidly and conveniently drained to separate a liquid from the catalyst using a separation unit including a separation vessel and having a separator plate disposed between an upper compartment and a lower compartment of the separation vessel, whereby each of the liquid and solid components of the slurry may be conveniently contained separately for subsequent treatment, transportation, and/or disposal. | 12-29-2011 |
| 20120024800 | APPARATUS, METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR HANDLING AND PROCESSING WASTE MATERIAL - Apparatus, methods and systems for processing waste are provided. For example, a system for processing waste, wherein the waste comprises hard particulates embedded therein, can be provided. The system can comprise a waste disruptor, wherein the waste disruptor disrupts the waste and releases at least one of the embedded hard particulates from the disrupted waste; a segregator, wherein the segregator segregates at least one of the released hard particulates from the waste; and a dilution unit, wherein the dilution unit dilutes the waste. In some embodiments, the system can include a waste loader that provides waste continuously to the waste disruptor, which is configured to disrupt at least a portion of the continuously provided waste. | 02-02-2012 |
| 20120138546 | High Temperature Lignin Separation Process - This specification describes a process to separate lignin from an aqueous mixture derived from a biomass feedstock, wherein the separation is done at or above critical temperature, usually above 60° C. | 06-07-2012 |
| 20120175317 | SYSTEM AND METHOD OF SEPARATING HYDROCARBONS - A system for separating hydrocarbons from a solid source, the system including a mixer configured to produce a slurry including the solid source and a liquid, and a first separator in fluid communication with the mixer, the first separator configured to separate hydrocarbons from the slurry. Additionally, a second separator include communication with the first separator, the second separator configured to receive the slurry from the first separator and separate additional hydrocarbons from the slurry, and a separation vessel including a hydrocarbon remover in fluid communication with the first and second separators, the separation vessel configured to receive the separated hydrocarbons and remove residual liquid from the hydrocarbons. Further including a collection vessel configured to receive hydrocarbons from the separation vessel, and a fine particle separator in fluid communication with the separation vessel, the fine particle separator configured to process residual liquid to produce cleaned liquid and residual solids. | 07-12-2012 |
| 20120181237 | Screen Basket Optimized For Removal Of Stickies From Adhesives-Contaminated Recyclable Fiber - A screen structure which is unusually effective at removing stickies from recyclable fiber but is tolerant of substantial swings in throughput which result in variations in the flow velocity through the screen-slot velocity. One example of the screen structure is created by forming a very large number of similarly shaped vanes then locking them into a ring structure to form a cylindrical screen basket but equivalent surface configurations can also be formed into sheet stock. | 07-19-2012 |
| 20140042108 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR SEPARATING SOLID PARTICLES FROM A SLURRY - The invention is directed to an improvement in operation of wash columns, and more in particular to an apparatus for separating solid particles from a slurry and to a process for separating solid particles from a mother liquor slurry. The apparatus of the invention comprises a wash column ( | 02-13-2014 |
