Abstract

801,961. Gravity-separation apparatus. KARCH, K. April 24, 1956, No. 12487/56. Class 46. [Also in Group XXI] Erosion and floods, caused, e.g., by deforestation and cultivation of excessively sloping land, can be prevented, and damaged land can be reclaimed, by erecting a barrier 12, made, e.g., of earth, concrete, stone or the like and having a central draining channel 16, across a gully 11 down which flood water normally runs and forming a basin 13, the flood water, temporarily trapped in the basin and depositing its silt on the floor of the basin, being gradually discharged through the conduit 16, and, if desired, into another basin lower down, and also seeping into the subsoil below the basin 13. The inlet end of the conduit 16, which is designed so that the rate of flow through it is substantially less than the normal rate of flow into the basin, and which is preferably protected by a guard, is turned upwardly to form an elbow which facilitates the fitting of extensions which can be added as the silt level 19 continues to build up, the inlet normally being arranged to be appreciably above the silt level 19. When it is desirable, e.g., in times of drought to use the basin 13 for storing water, e.g. for irrigation purposes, the conduit may be provided with a valve, e.g., a float actuated valve. The basin 13, which would normally empty in about onehalf to two days, is provided with an overflow spillway 17 at one end of the barrier 12. This arrangement of basin and barrier can also be used successfully in combination with the usual kind of terracing.
