Two-stage apparatus for clarifying liquid charged with solid matter

A cloudy liquid to be clarified is inserted, after twice receiving flocculation additive, into the bottom of a belt of sludge (4a) in a clarification chamber (4) via a plurality of injectors (22) distributed over the area of said chamber. Uniform distribution of overall flow between these injectors is ensured by internal head loss. The clarified liquid is removed via an upper overflow (4b). Each injector is constituted by a flat cyclone and forms a jet which is highly diverting from its vertical axis in such a manner that the injected flowrate spreads out over an expansion zone belonging to said injector and meeting the expansion zones of adjacent injectors. Further, these jets set up swirling motion which prevents the formation of a layer of sludge having insufficient permeability. The sludge formed in the chamber (4) is directed via a central well (7) towards a secondary clarification sludge (3) situated beneath said chamber and supplying both clarified liquid and dense sludge.

Sludge belt apparatus for clarifying liquid charged with solid matter

An installation for spreading clayey mud on ground which is free from water and which is prepared to receive the mud by laying a filtering bottom above the level of ground water, said installation comprising a decanting tank in which a mixture of mud and flocculating agent settles, a mud extraction pump for extracting said settled mixture of mud and flocculating agent from the decanting tank and pushing it into a pipe to convey said mixture up to at least one high mud pouring point located above said prepared ground, said installation further comprising means for adding more flocculating agent to said mixture in the vicinity of said mud pouring point.

Apparatus for maintaining solids in suspension in a liquid mass contained in a vat. Liquid under pressure and compressed gas are injected simultaneously into the liquid by the stirrer arm at the bottom of the vat.

Apparatus for maintaining solids in a suspension and a method of using it

Dredging installation consisting of a fixed tower set on the sea bed and prising silos for storing and decanting the dredged materials, with a mobile dredging pipe which can be moved on the sea bed from the silos to the dredging site and a lift pipe going from the silos to the loading ships.
