Systems and methods for extracting particulate from raw slurry material

摘要

A processing system for processing raw slurry material comprising a barrel member defining a feed portion, a processing chamber, and an outlet opening, at least one pre-processing member, and at least one pre-processing opening formed in the barrel member adjacent to a first portion of the pre-processing member. As the barrel member rotates, the at least one pre-processing member transports at least a portion of the raw slurry material such that at least some of the heavy particulate material in the raw slurry material is transported to the outlet opening, at least some of the liquid material in the raw slurry material is allowed to flow back towards the feed portion, and at least some of the liquid material and at least some of the light particulate material is allowed to flow through the at least one pre-processing opening.

1. A processing system for processing raw slurry material comprising light particulate material, heavy particulate material, and liquid material to separate the light and heavy particulate materials from the liquid material, the processing system comprising:
a barrel member defining a feed portion, a processing chamber, and an outlet opening; at least one pre-processing member, where the at least one pre-processing member is supported by the barrel member within the processing chamber; at least one pre-processing opening formed in the barrel member adjacent to a first portion of the pre-processing member; wherein as the barrel member rotates about the processing axis, the at least one pre-processing member transports at least a portion of the raw slurry material from the feed portion towards the outlet opening such that
at least some of the heavy particulate material in the raw slurry material is transported to the outlet opening,at least some of the liquid material in the raw slurry material is allowed to flow back towards the feed portion,at least some of the liquid material and at least some of the light particulate material is allowed to flow through the at least one pre-processing opening in the barrel member.
