Systems, devices and methods for high volume fluid filtering

A method of filtering fluid comprising:

• a. introducing an influent into a fluid processing system comprising a first bowl, with a bottom surface and a side wall having an inner surface and an outer surface wherein the side wall extends from the bottom surface at an angle from 10-20° from the vertical, having at least one filter element positioned in the side wall of the first bowl in fluid communication between an interior of the first bowl and an exterior of the first bowl, an input manifold adapted and configured to receive an influent fluid and to deliver the influent to an area adjacent the bottom surface of the first bowl, a partition adapted and configured to isolate an influent filtrate from an influent solid, and a drive system adapted and configured to control a rotational movement of the first bowl
• b. rotating the first bowl;
• and
• c. creating a pressure to force a fluid component of the influent through filter elements while pushing a solid component of the influent over a top rim of the bowl.

A fluid processing device comprising:

• a. a first bowl having at least one filter element positioned in the side wall of the first bowl in fluid communication between an interior of the first bowl and an exterior of the first bowl;
• b. an input manifold adapted and configured to receive an influent fluid and to deliver the influent to an area adjacent the bottom surface of the first bowl;
• c. at least one pump vane positioned in a bottom surface of the first bowl wherein the pump vane is adapted and configured to propel the influent outward from a central axis when the first bowl is rotating;
• and
• d. a drive system adapted and configured to control a rotational movement of the first bowl.
