Dewatering box
A sludge dewatering tank that includes a first wall, a second wall, a third wall, a fourth wall and a bottom that cooperate to define a tank interior, a first interior wall and a second interior wall. The first interior wall cooperates with the first wall to define a first drainage compartment and includes at least a first filter member. The first drainage compartment includes at least a first drain that communicates the first drainage compartment with an exterior of the sludge dewatering tank. The second interior wall cooperates with the second wall to define a second drainage compartment and includes at least a second filter member. The second drainage compartment includes at least a second drain that communicates the second drainage compartment with the exterior of the sludge dewatering tank. The first interior wall cooperates with the second interior wall to define a sludge space therebetween.
1. A sludge dewatering tank that comprises:
a first wall, a second wall, a third wall, a fourth wall and a bottom that cooperate to define a tank interior,
a first interior wall that cooperates with the first wall to define a first drainage compartment, wherein the first interior wall includes at least a first filter member, and wherein the first drainage compartment includes at least a first drain that communicates the first drainage compartment with an exterior of the sludge dewatering tank,
a second interior wall that cooperates with the second wall to define a second drainage compartment, wherein the second interior wall includes at least a second filter member, and wherein the second drainage compartment includes at least a second drain that communicates the second drainage compartment with the exterior of the sludge dewatering tank,
wherein the first interior wall cooperates with the second interior wall to define a sludge space therebetween, and wherein the first drainage compartment includes at least a third drain that communicates the first drainage compartment with the exterior of the sludge dewatering tank, wherein the first and third drains are positioned at opposite ends of the first drainage compartment, wherein the second drainage compartment includes at least a fourth drain that communicates the second drainage compartment with an exterior of the sludge dewatering tank, and wherein the second and fourth drains are positioned at opposite ends of the first drainage compartment.
2. A sludge dewatering tank that comprises:
a first wall, a second wall, a third wall, a fourth wall and a bottom that cooperate to define a tank interior, wherein the first wall includes a dumping channel defined therein, wherein at least one of the first, second, third or fourth walls includes a first hose fixing member on an upper edge thereof, and wherein at least one of the first, second, third or fourth walls includes a sludge inlet defined therein,
a first interior wall that cooperates with the first wall to define a first drainage compartment, wherein the first interior wall includes at least a first filter member that is movable between a filter position and a removed position, and wherein the first drainage compartment includes at least a first drain that communicates the first drainage compartment with an exterior of the sludge dewatering tank,
a first cover member that is pivotable between an open position and a closed position, wherein in the closed position the first cover member at least partially defines the first drainage compartment and covers an upper surface of the first filter member, wherein when the first cover member is in the open position the first filter member can be moved to the removed position,
a second interior wall that cooperates with the second wall to define a second drainage compartment, wherein the second interior wall includes at least a second filter member that is movable between a filter position and a removed position, and wherein the second drainage compartment includes at least a second drain that communicates the second drainage compartment with the exterior of the sludge dewatering tank,
a second cover member that is pivotable between an open position and a closed position, wherein in the closed position the second cover member at least partially defines the second drainage compartment and covers an upper surface of the second filter member, wherein when the second cover member is in the open position the second filter member can be moved to the removed position,
wherein the first interior wall cooperates with the second interior wall to define a sludge space therebetween, and wherein the first drainage compartment includes at least a third drain that communicates the first drainage compartment with the exterior of the sludge dewatering tank, wherein the first and third drawings are position at opposite ends of the first drainage compartment, wherein the second drainage compartment includes at least a fourth drain that communicates the second drainage compartment with an exterior of the sludge dewatering tank, and wherein the second and fourth drains are position at opposite ends of the first drainage compartment.
3. The sludge dewatering tank of claim 2 wherein the first filter member includes a first screen coupled thereto, wherein the first filter member is capable of filtering particles down to a first particle size, wherein the first screen is capable of filtering particles down to a second particle size, wherein the second particle size is smaller than the first particle size.
