Apparatus and systems for waste removal

A cleaning system for removal of waste from a waste receptacle, the cleaning system comprising:

• an emulsification fork comprising:
• a fork body configured to transport a pressurized fluid;
• a fork arm protruding from the fork body;
• an emulsification nozzle fluidly coupled to the fork arm and configured to jet the pressurized fluid to emulsify the waste yielding an emulsified waste;
• a pressurized fluid channel disposed throughout the fork body, the fork arm, and the emulsification nozzle and configured to transport the pressurized fluid;
• a vacuum port disposed on the fork body and configured to remove a portion of the emulsified waste;
• and
• a vacuum channel disposed throughout the vacuum port and configured to transport the portion of the emulsified waste,
• wherein the emulsification fork is configured to be disposed within the waste receptacle;
• a pressurizing device fluidly connected to the emulsification fork via a fluid flowline and configured to pressurize a cleaning fluid;
• and
• a vacuum device fluidly connected to the vacuum port and configured to provide suction to the vacuum port.

A method for cleaning a waste receptacle, the method comprising:

• disposing an emulsification fork within the waste receptacle;
• initiating a pressurizing device fluidly connected to the emulsification fork and configured to pressurize a cleaning fluid yielding a pressurized fluid;
• jetting, using an emulsification nozzle of the emulsification fork, the pressurized fluid into the waste receptacle containing waste yielding an emulsified waste;
• initiating a vacuum device fluidly connected to the emulsification fork and configured to provide suction to a vacuum port of the emulsification fork;
• and
• removing a portion of the emulsified waste via a vacuum channel of the vacuum port to a waste container fluidly connected to the vacuum port via a vacuum flowline.
