Disclosed is a process for reclamation of waste fluids. A conditioning
container is employed for receipt of waste material on a continuous flow
for treatment within the container by immersible transducers producing
ultrasonic acoustic waves in combination with a high level of injected
ozone. The treated material exhibits superior separation properties for
delivery into a centrifuge for enhanced solid waste removal. The
invention discloses a cost efficient and environmentally friendly process
and apparatus for cleaning and recycling of flowback, or frac water,
which has been used to stimulate gas production from shale formations.
The apparatus is mobile and containerized and suitable for installation
at the well site.
