A PROCESS FOR TREATING INDUSTRIAL EFFLUENTS BY SEPARATING SUSPENDED SOLIDS FROM EFFLUENTS

摘要

THE INVENTION RELATES TO A CONVENIENT, CHEAP AND EFFICIENT METHOD FOR TREATING AND ,SEPARATING SUSPENDED SOLID PARTICLES FROM INDUSTRIAL EFFLUENTS. IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INVENTION INDUSTRIAL EFFLUENTS REQUIRING TREATMENT IS PUMPED INTO A CLOG FREE SPRAYER/NEBULISER EITHER AS PRE-HEATED OR COLD.HOT AIR UNDER PRESSURE IS ALSO FED BY TUBE MEANS TO THE CLOG FREE SPRAYER/NEBULISER WHICH NEBULISES THE PUMPED IN EFFLUENT INTO A FINE MIST OF EFFLUENT. THE ACTION OF THE HOT AIR AND THE HIGH TEMPERATURE THAT IS MAINTAINED IN THE HOT RECEIVING CHAMBER VAPORISES THE FINE MIST OF EFFLUENT. THE NETT EFFECT IS THAT THE VAPORISED WATER IS SWEPT INTO A COOLING TOWER AND IS COLLECTED IN A RESERVOIR AS CONDENSED WATER OR TREATED EFFLUENT WHILE THE HEAVIER SUSPENDED SOLID COMPONENT OF THE EFFLUENT ILL DRY FORM DROPS DOWN TO THE FLOOR OF THE HOT RECEIVING CHAMBER AND IS COLLECTED AT REGU1LAR INTERVALS .
