Definitions
- This invention relates to a device for separating and retaining liquids resulting from urban waste (refuse) deposits in surface, buried or semi-buried containers.
- the system wherein the device is integrated consists of a buried or semi-buried polyethylene pit with a variable volumetry (usually from 1 to 5 m 3 ), which is covered by a polyethylene or other material lid, whose partial opening allows the refuse to be introduced by the user into a removable bag, which is then put inside the pit, having the same volumetry of the latter.
- the household-refuse collection services will regularly remove the said bag from within the pit and discharge its whole content into an appropriate loading vehicle.
- the most similar document to this invention is the WO 2008/104660 , which relates to a process for degrading waste in an assembly that comprises at least one container, said process comprising the following steps: depositing the waste in the container; and recovering the lixiviate from the housing into a basin.
- the process is characterized in that it further comprises the step of sequentially humidifying the waste in the container by dispensing a liquid that contains the collected lixiviate.
- the said invention is completely distinct from the one which is now applying for protection. Actually, it is a process by which lixiviates are collected, rather than a bag allowing lixiviates to be separated/retained.
- lixiviates are collected in containers and not in bags, this feature not only distinguishing both technologies but also making the said device to be much more complex and costly than the object of this invention.
- the device for separating and retaining lixiviate preferably comprises the following:
- this device operates together with the solids' retention bag, which largely contributes to the formation of the liquids deposit (“trunk”) and to the separation of both, solids and liquids.
- the combined device for separating/retaining lixiviates which was designed to be integrated in a urban solid waste collection system being introduced in surface, buried or semi-buried containers, is basically characterized in that it is comprised of an outer bag (1), an impervious inner bag (2) which is provided with a trunk (5), both bags being fastened to a metallic ring, and the opening and closing means (7 and 8) of the said bags.
- the above mentioned trunk (5) of the inner bag (2) is projected outward from the outer bag (1), through a hole which is arranged at the bottom of the said outer bag (1), and it is kept in a raised position for retaining the liquids ( figure 1 ) and assumes a discharge position for releasing the said liquids ( figure 2 ), these two positions being activated by means of a cable (6).
- the opening and closing means provided with the bags comprise eyelets (7 and 8), to the outer (1) and inner (2) bags respectively, in addition to cables passing through the said eyelets.
- the impervious inner bag (2) is made of PVC and is placed inside the solids retention bag (1), thanks to a system of eyelets (7 and 8) (being sewed at an area next to each end of each one of the bags (1) and (2)) through which will pass the polyethylene cables being controlled by the system's operator by means of a cable fast trapping mechanism (3) and (4).
- the said bag (2) forms in its end a "trunk” (5) which will serve as a deposit for the existing liquids in the system.
- the separate handling of this "trunk” (5) whose opening/closure is the operator's responsibility, is in fact very easy thanks to the system of loops and pulleys provided for that purpose at the top and fixed to the aluminium ring (6).
- the invention is integrated in a urban waste (refuse) storage system, which is comprised of a container and of the relevant polyethylene lid, wherein a set of two bags/sleeves is introduced and attached to an aluminium ring which sustains them by fitting to the mouth of the container.
Description
- This invention relates to a device for separating and retaining liquids resulting from urban waste (refuse) deposits in surface, buried or semi-buried containers.
- The system wherein the device is integrated consists of a buried or semi-buried polyethylene pit with a variable volumetry (usually from 1 to 5 m3), which is covered by a polyethylene or other material lid, whose partial opening allows the refuse to be introduced by the user into a removable bag, which is then put inside the pit, having the same volumetry of the latter.
- By using special equipment, the household-refuse collection services will regularly remove the said bag from within the pit and discharge its whole content into an appropriate loading vehicle.
- According to the current state of the art, there is not a practical and effective way of ensuring that the liquid portion of the waste (refuse) deposited in the containers is separately retained. As a consequence, deposits are formed at the bottom of the containers (which must be regularly removed by using suction pumps or other not so practical means) and there are often incidental leakages in the public highway during the daily collection operation. Furthermore,
WO 2006/032073 A1 discloses a waste collecting system using removable storage bags. - The most similar document to this invention is the
WO 2008/104660 , which relates to a process for degrading waste in an assembly that comprises at least one container, said process comprising the following steps: depositing the waste in the container; and recovering the lixiviate from the housing into a basin. The process is characterized in that it further comprises the step of sequentially humidifying the waste in the container by dispensing a liquid that contains the collected lixiviate. As can be concluded from the above, the said invention is completely distinct from the one which is now applying for protection. Actually, it is a process by which lixiviates are collected, rather than a bag allowing lixiviates to be separated/retained. Furthermore, as can be understood when reading the description of the said patent's process, lixiviates are collected in containers and not in bags, this feature not only distinguishing both technologies but also making the said device to be much more complex and costly than the object of this invention. - With the invention as defined in appended claim 1, which is the object of this patent application, the use of the urban waste collection system can be substantially improved, thus avoiding all the cleaning operations above mentioned and also offering to the collection services the possibility to transport liquids (lixiviates) and solids separately until arriving at the usual place of discharge.
- The device for separating and retaining lixiviate preferably comprises the following:
- 1) One bag/sleeve made of impervious PVC canvas, attached to an aluminium ring;
- 2) Eight stainless steel loops/eyelets at the lower end of the bag/sleeve;
- 3) One polyethylene rope/cable;
- 4) A cable fast trapping mechanism of the ClamCleat-type
- 5) A set of pulleys and loops, serving to guide and aid the sliding of the cable.
- It should be noted that this device operates together with the solids' retention bag, which largely contributes to the formation of the liquids deposit ("trunk") and to the separation of both, solids and liquids.
- The following description is based upon a preferred embodiment that is illustrated in the enclosed drawings, these drawings representing with a non-limiting character:
-
Figure 1 , a view of the device in the position for retaining solids and liquids; -
Figure 2 , a view of the device in the position for emptying liquids; and -
Figure 3 , a view of the device in the position for discharging solids. - As can be observed, the combined device for separating/retaining lixiviates, which was designed to be integrated in a urban solid waste collection system being introduced in surface, buried or semi-buried containers, is basically characterized in that it is comprised of an outer bag (1), an impervious inner bag (2) which is provided with a trunk (5), both bags being fastened to a metallic ring, and the opening and closing means (7 and 8) of the said bags.
- The above mentioned trunk (5) of the inner bag (2) is projected outward from the outer bag (1), through a hole which is arranged at the bottom of the said outer bag (1), and it is kept in a raised position for retaining the liquids (
figure 1 ) and assumes a discharge position for releasing the said liquids (figure 2 ), these two positions being activated by means of a cable (6). - In
Figures 1 to 3 , the operation of the combined device can be observed, which is hereunder explained in more detail: - The phase A, "separate retention of solids and liquids", represents the fully closed set of 2 bags (1 and 2), wherein the separate retention of solids and liquids is shown;
- The phase B, "discharge of liquids", represents an intermediate state in which the outer bag (1) remains closed and the impervious inner bag (2) that contains the liquids is in the discharging position;
- The phase C, "discharge of solids", represents the full opening of both bags (1 and 2) and the resulting discharge of solids.
- The opening and closing means provided with the bags comprise eyelets (7 and 8), to the outer (1) and inner (2) bags respectively, in addition to cables passing through the said eyelets.
- The impervious inner bag (2) is made of PVC and is placed inside the solids retention bag (1), thanks to a system of eyelets (7 and 8) (being sewed at an area next to each end of each one of the bags (1) and (2)) through which will pass the polyethylene cables being controlled by the system's operator by means of a cable fast trapping mechanism (3) and (4). The said bag (2) forms in its end a "trunk" (5) which will serve as a deposit for the existing liquids in the system. The separate handling of this "trunk" (5) whose opening/closure is the operator's responsibility, is in fact very easy thanks to the system of loops and pulleys provided for that purpose at the top and fixed to the aluminium ring (6).
- With reference to
Figure 1 , the importance of the trapping mechanisms of the rope/cable and of the eyelets/pulleys which guide the sliding of the cable can be understood, since they allow the user to not only lift and lower the "trunk" of the liquids deposit, but also create separate retention sections. - The invention is integrated in a urban waste (refuse) storage system, which is comprised of a container and of the relevant polyethylene lid, wherein a set of two bags/sleeves is introduced and attached to an aluminium ring which sustains them by fitting to the mouth of the container.
