Abstract:
A water supply means to pump up the filtrate pumped up from a filtrate tank (13) into a filtrate discharge pipe (3), and a filtrate discharge pump (5) are provided, while an unthickened sludge extracting device (20) is fitted to the bottom of a sludge tank (1), where a high negative pressure acts upon the inside of filter plates (2) to conduct filtration, the unthickened sludge (10) is discharged from the unthickened sludge extracting device (20), and/or the unthickened sludge (10) present near the thickened sludge (11) is displaced by an unthickened sludge displacement means (22, 24, 28,29) so as not to contact the thickened sludge (11), and filtration of only thickened sludge (11) continues so that high-concentration thickened sludge (11) can be obtained without being affected by the water in the unthickened sludge (10).
Abstract:
Filteranordnung, bei welcher ein vollständiges Vakuumfilter (10), beispielsweise ein gesamtes Scheibenfilter mit der Lagerung und dem Antrieb, in einem Raum (11) betrieber wird, der unter Überdruck steht. Die Filtrationsprodukte werden durch eine Schleuse (12) aus dem Überdruckraum ausgetragen. Da die Restfeuchte des Filterkuchens bei sehr vielen Stoffen bereits durch eine geringfügige Erhöhung des Drukkes im Überdruckraum erheblich vermindert wird, können sich auch während des Filterbetriebes Personen im Überdruckraum aufhalten.

Abstract:
A large vault or tank receives the runoff water to be cleaned. There are one or more small tanks in the large tank (vault). Each small tank is inverted and receives water at its open lower end, from the large tank. The water entering the small tank rises, as the water level in the large tank rises, and flows upward through a filter. When the water level rises above the top of the filter it enters an outlet tube or pipe and then flows downwardly along the center-line of the filter. A float, a valve and a check valve may cause the system to function as a siphon and feed the filtered clean water to an outlet. Alternatively the siphoning effect will occur if the inside diameter of said outlet tube is small enough to form a partial vacuum.
Abstract:
A filtering apparatus for removing impurities out of a lubrication oil for use in an internal combustion engine including low and high density filters having inlets commonly connected to an inlet conduit through which the lubrication oil to be filtered is supplied, an orifice arranged in an outlet conduit of the low density filter to produce a reduced pressure due to a fast oil flow and a conduit connected between an outlet of the high density filter and the orifice. Due to the reduced pressure applied to the outlet of the high density filter, a part of the oil is effectively sucked into the high density filter.
Abstract:
A method of operating a filter centrifuge or centrifugal filter in which a hydrostatic head is provided at the filtering surface so as to control liquid passage therethrough. The head may promote movement of the liquid through the filter layer or may induce reverse flow of liquid for backwashing or rinsing. In addition, a hydrostatic balance may be provided at this surface through control of the head to limit passage of the liquid through the filter layer. Preferably the head provides a suction augmenting centrifugal filtration.
Abstract:
A simplified filtering system capable of repeating filtration of liquid and cleaning of the filter of the system with the filtrate alternately by use of simple electric control means and valvular means.
