| 1997 | Invention patented by Hikoroku Sugiura on September 7th, 1997. Abstract: There is provided a new bubble floating type separator applicable to a waste water regeneration system which can purify a relatively small amount of waste water by a simple and small-scaled apparatus. The bubble floating type separator comprises a liquid passage for delivering a liquid which contains suspended solids, and an injection pipe, connected to said liquid passage, for injecting a gas selected from air, oxygen gas and ozone gas. A gas-liquid mixer is connected to the liquid passage at a downstream portion of the injection pipe, and a cyclone type bubble separator is connected to a downstream portion of an outlet of the gas-liquid mixer. The cyclone type bubble separator has a discharge port, at a central upper portion, for discharging bubbles floating along with the suspended solids, a cyclone body, and a liquid discharge port at a lower circumferential portion of the cyclone body for discharging a processed liquid so that the suspended solids are removed together with the bubbles. |
