  • Patent number: 9352332
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for removing solids and particulates from fluid by magnetic separation. First and second spaced rotatable drums move a closed loop belt. A portion of the belt is disposed in contact with the fluid flowing through a fluid passage disposed adjacent to a circumferential portion of the first rotatable drum where solids and particulates in the fluid are attracted to the belt by magnetic attraction from a magnetic source within the first rotatable drum. A wiper scrapes the solids deposited on the belt.
