Latest Patents

One of his latest patents involves a method for liquid separating and recycling. This invention addresses the removal of solid contaminants from tramp oil containing aqueous emulsions. The process allows for the separation of emulsions into reusable constituents, enabling the recycling of the separated aqueous liquid. The apparatus is designed to reclaim solvents, washing solutions, lubricating oil, and cutting oil from installations used for cleaning and washing oil-coated parts. It effectively filters out dirt, grit, and scale from used industrial cleaning solutions, coalescing the liquid components into reusable constituents while continuously recycling the aqueous component without energy loss. The compact and self-contained apparatus operates with minimal energy and can be easily mounted adjacent to industrial equipment without disrupting its operation.

Another significant patent by Doncer is a method of clarifying liquids. This invention features a longitudinally elongated settling tank with a converging hopper bottom. A travelling bridge reciprocates through the tank, equipped with sludge pick-up heads that remove sludge from the bottom during a preset cycle. The clarified liquid flows over weirs at the opposite end of the tank, ensuring efficient
