Mobile water treatment

Abstract

A mobile water treatment apparatus to on-load a dirty fluid into a storage container attached to a motor vehicle and transport the fluid in the storage container from a first location and to a second location where the fluid is filtered by a filtration system attached to the motor vehicle. The filtered fluid is discharged from the mobile water treatment apparatus at the second location.

1 . A mobile water treatment apparatus comprising:
 a motor vehicle;   a filtration system attachable to the motor vehicle;   a fluid storage container attachable to the motor vehicle; and   a fluid delivery pump that loads a fluid into the fluid storage container,   wherein the motor vehicle transports the fluid inside the fluid storage container from a first location to a second location,   the filtration system filters the fluid, and   the fluid is discharged at the second location.   
     
     
         2 . The mobile water treatment apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising a containment receptacle surrounding the filtration system to collect an excess fluid from the filtration system. 
     
     
         3 . The mobile water treatment apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the filtration system is affixed to the motor vehicle. 
     
     
         4 . The mobile water treatment apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the filtration system includes at least one removable filter to remove contaminates from the fluid. 
     
     
         5 . The mobile water treatment apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the filtration system includes at least two removable filters to remove contaminates from the fluid. 
     
     
         6 . The mobile water treatment apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the filtration system comprises:
 a filtration vessel;   an input connector;   an output connector;   at least one conduit including a removable filter, the removable filter residing in the conduit; and   a cover that seals the filtration vessel allowing the filtration vessel to withstand a pressure,   wherein the fluid flows through the input connector into the filtration vessel, through the removable filter within the conduit through the output connector,   the removable filter is removed and replaced after contaminates accumulate in the filter, and   the cover allows access to the removable filter within the conduit.   
     
     
         7 . The mobile water treatment apparatus according to  claim 1 , including at least a second filtration system attachable to the motor vehicle. 
     
     
         8 . The mobile water treatment apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the fluid delivery pump directs the fluid into the filtration system after the fluid exits the fluid storage container. 
     
     
         9 . The mobile water treatment apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the fluid flow within the apparatus is controlled with mechanical valves. 
     
     
         10 . The mobile water treatment apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein the fluid delivery pump creates a negative pressure to draw the excess fluid from the containment receptacle into the fluid storage container. 
     
     
         11 . The mobile water treatment apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the fluid is produced from an oil or gas well. 
     
     
         12 . A mobile water treatment apparatus comprising:
 a motor vehicle;   a fluid storage container attachable to the motor vehicle;   a fluid delivery pump; and   means for filtering fluid attachable to the motor vehicle;   wherein the fluid delivery pump directs a fluid into the fluid storage container,   the fluid is directed through the fluid filtering means, and   the motor vehicle transports the filtering means, fluid storage container, and the fluid contained in the fluid storage container from a first location to a second location.   
     
     
         13 . The mobile water treatment apparatus according to  claim 12 , wherein the fluid delivery pump is affixed to the motor vehicle, and
 the fluid delivery pump directs the fluid through the fluid filtering means.
