Abstract: A liquid separating device (1) for processing a mixture material (3) containing both solid and liquid materials (3a,3b), in order to separate liquid material (3b) from the solid material (3a), the liquid separating device (1) includes a support frame (5), a series of liquid separation assemblies (7a,7b) and a corresponding guiding assembly (19) between each pair of liquid separation assemblies (7). The liquid separation assemblies (7) are disposed about the support frame (5) in a cascading configuration, and the passage (13) of each liquid separation assembly (7) is narrower in width than the passage of a preceding liquid separation assembly (7) so that each subsequent liquid separation assembly (7b) is enabled to extract more liquid material via an increased wringing pressure resulting from a thickening of the remaining mixture material (3) to be processed and the narrower subsequent passage (13b) through which it is channeled and pressed.

Abstract: An apparatus for establishing sulfide perfusion is described and includes a sulfide supply for introducing sulfide into fluid for perfusion, an apparatus for delivery of the perfusion fluid, a fluid chemistry monitor for monitoring the concentration of sulfide and other components of the perfusion fluid, and an electronic controller connected with the sulfide supply and the fluid chemistry monitor to control the sulfide supply to regulate the sulfide concentration of the perfusion fluid based on input from the fluid chemistry monitor.
