A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
A contaminant recovery apparatus 10 comprising: a support structure 12; and a guide means 50 having an inlet 52 and an outlet 56, the guide means being configured, in use, to guide a flow of contaminant 16 from the inlet to a contaminant containment device 57 located downstream of the outlet, the contaminant recovery apparatus further comprising: a contaminant recovery mechanism 18 mounted on, and projecting, in use, beyond a periphery of, the support structure, the contaminant recovery mechanism comprising: a pulley 22 having a plurality of receptacles 26 pivotally connected to the pulley, the pulley being adapted, in use, to sequentially: submerge the receptacles in a body of water 14 adjacent the support structure and thereby collect a quantity of water from a surface portion 16 of the body of water; elevate the receptacles to a position substantially overlying the inlet of the guide means; and further comprising: means 30, 32 adapted, in use, to tip or invert the receptacles to empty the said quantity of water into the inlet of the guide means.
