  • Patent number: 8137543
    Abstract: A vessel system comprising a vessel is presented. The vessel system comprises at least one internal wall located within the vessel. The vessel system further comprises at least one inflatable seal to create a seal between an outer periphery of the internal wall and an internal cavity wall of the vessel. The vessel system further comprises a shaft longitudinally traversing the vessel and adapted to transmit a force applied on the at least one internal wall to an end of the vessel.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20100300494
    Abstract: A reusable filter cartridge having a symmetrical structure, the reusable filter cartridge comprising a tubular outer pipe having perforations arranged therein. A tubular inner pipe having perforations is arranged therein, and has a smaller diameter than the diameter of the outer pipe such that an annulus is formed between the outer and inner pipes. A filtering media is disposed in the annulus between the outer and inner pipes. A first and second lid is provided, each being secured at opposite ends of the outer and inner pipes; one of the lids having a central opening therein for water to flow out of or into the inner pipe. The reusable filter cartridge further comprises a coupling arrangement for coupling the filter cartridge with a rotating element of a cleaning device so that the filter media can be cleaned by rotation of the filter cartridge around its axis inside the cleaning device.

  • Patent number: 7678286
    Abstract: A system for separating an emulsion fluid into a recovered fluid and a purified fluid. The emulsion fluid comprises a continuous phase and a dispersed phase. The purified fluid is essentially constituted of the continuous phase. The system comprises a vessel at an inlet of which the emulsion fluid may flow. The system further comprises one or more coalescing elements made of Reusable Polymer Absorbent material. Each coalescing element allows to coalesce at least a portion of the dispersed phase from small droplets into large drops further detached from the coalescing element upon a flow of the emulsion fluid. The system further comprises one or more separating and guiding means made of oleophilic material. Each separating and guiding means is located a distance from an associated coalescing element and is disposed at an output of the associated coalescing element to guide the detached large drops for further recovery.
