Abstract:
A method of using dissolved air flotation in a flotation cell to filter water is provided. The method involves creating first and second air-water mixtures and discharging the first air-water mixture with a current in the flotation cell and the second air-water mixture countercurrent to the direction of flow in the flotation cell. The bubbles created when the air is released separate solids out of the water.

Claim (Index 6):
A method of mobile dissolved air flotation for a tracking operation, the method comprising:\n transporting a mobile dissolved air flotation system to a first tracking site; assembling the system and coupling the system to a first influent source at the first tracking site over an 8-12 hours period; continuously processing the first influent source from the first site at a rate of 250-600 GPM over a 10-12 hour period; disassembly of the mobile dissolved air flotation system over an 8-12 hour period; transporting the mobile dissolved air flotation system to a second tracking site; assembling the system and coupling the system to a second influent source at the second tracking site over a 8-12 hours; continuously processing the second influent source from the second site at a rate of 250-600 GPM over a 10-12 hour period, the system including: a primary skid for treating an influent flow ranging from 250-600 GPM, the primary skid including: a heating chamber; a flocculation chamber; a clarified water chamber; and a flotation cell having an inlet in communication with the flocculation chamber and an outlet in communication with the clarified water chamber, the flotation cell defining a direction of flow along a longitudinal axis extending from the inlet to the outlet, the flotation cell having a top and a bottom to define a cell depth extending from the top of the flotation cell to the bottom of the flotation cell in a direction of a transverse axis transvers to the longitudinal axis, a first air/water distribution manifold adjacent the inlet and at least a second air/water distribution manifold adjacent the outlet, each of the first and second air/water distribution manifold having a discharge opening oriented relative to at least one of the longitudinal axis and the transverse axis to define a discharge of dissolved air having a rate of discharge and a direction the discharge opening of the first air/water distribution manifold is from the inlet to the outlet, the discharge openings of the first air/water distribution manifold and the second air/water distribution manifold being oriented such that at least a portion of the discharge of dissolved air from the second air/water distribution manifold is counter current to at least a portion of the discharged of dissolved air from the first air/water distribution manifold; a secondary skid including a first dissolved air generator coupled to the first air/water distribution manifold and a second dissolved air generator independent of the first dissolved air generator coupled to the second air/water distribution manifold.
