Abstract

386,312. Gravity-separation apparatus. WILKINS, E. T., Fuel Research Station, Blackwall Lane, East Greenwich, London. June 4, 1931, No. 16193. [Class 46.] A settling tank, particularly applicable for separating suspensions of coal and associated impurities, is provided with a number of inclined baffles and its inlet and overflow outlet are at the same level so that liquid passes from the inlet to the outlet as a horizontal stream over or between the upper ends of the baffles. The distance between the baffles in a horizontal plane is considerably less than their average height. Fig. 1 shows a conical tank with baffles PI in the form of conical frustra. There is a central inlet F1 surrounded by a perforated distributer B1, a peripheral overflow W1, and a sediment outlet E1. Modifications are described in which (a) the conical frustra are upright instead of inverted and (b) the baffles take the form of parallel tubes or of a multi-start spiral with vertical axis. Fig. 4 shows a form with inlet F4 and distributer B4 at one side, the clear liquid outlet W4 being at the other side. The baffles are built up of units, as shown in Fig. 5, each unit consisting of a number of plain or corrugated plates spaced by rods G. In the form shown in Fig. 7, one of the baffle plates Q is extended to the wall of the tank and an additional outlet R is provided so that the different classes of sediment collecting in the two portions of the tank are discharged separately. Fig. 8 shows a tank which may be rectangular in plan and which has three separate sediment-collecting compartments. It is stated that arrangements may be made for continuously or intermittently moving the whole system of baffles.
