Abstract: Methods and apparatus for treating fluid streams containing solids are described herein. One method includes mixing a fluid stream containing solids, or a material derived from the fluid stream containing solids, with a flocculant agent, a coagulant agent, or both to form a mixture; routing the mixture to a high efficiency separator to yield a solids stream and a liquid stream; and routing the solids stream to an electro-osmotic filter press to form a solid filter cake. The fluid stream can be a water-based stream or a non-aqueous stream.

Abstract: A method of installing a vibratory shaker screen in a vibratory shaker, including placing a first end of the vibratory shaker screen in a retainer, wherein the retainer is one of attached and a component of the vibratory shaker; pivoting a second end of the vibratory shaker screen toward a screen installation position on the vibratory shaker, deflecting a tab on one of the vibratory shaker screen and the vibratory shaker through contact of the vibratory shaker screen to another retainer of the vibratory shaker, and connecting the vibratory shaker screen to the vibratory shaker, where the tab fixedly connects the vibratory shaker screen to the vibratory shaker.

Abstract: This disclosure is generally drawn to systems, devices, apparatus, and/or methods related to sealing mechanisms for vibratory separators. Specifically, the disclosed systems, devices, apparatus, and/or methods relate to seals having support(s) for improved installation in and/or removal from a vibratory separator. In some examples, an apparatus may include a seal and a support member. The seal may have two opposing side members and an end member coupled to and extending between the two opposing side members. The support member, which is at least partially rigid, may be coupled to the end member of the seal. In some examples, the support member may be integrated with or removably coupled to the seal.
