The treatment of wastewater is a vital process for maintaining the health of our water bodies and the environment at large. One of the pivotal stages in this process is flocculent settling, a method used to remove particulate matter from wastewater. This technique relies on the aggregation of smaller particles into larger ones, known as […]

Primary clarifiers serve a critical role in wastewater treatment as they are the initial phase where solids are separated from the liquid waste. By allowing wastewater to slow down and stay in a quiescent state, these clarifiers enable heavier solids to settle at the bottom, while lighter materials like oils and grease rise to the […]

Dissolved air flotation (DAF) is a water treatment process that clarifies wastewater by the removal of suspended matter such as oil, grease, or solids. The removal is achieved by dissolving air in the water or wastewater under pressure and then releasing the air at atmospheric pressure in a flotation tank or basin. The released air […]

Efficient sedimentation processes are essential for both municipal and industrial wastewater treatment facilities. As raw wastewater enters the treatment plant, it undergoes initial screening before proceeding to sedimentation tanks where the separation process begins. This stage is pivotal for the protection of downstream treatment units and for minimizing the potential for damage or additional processing […]

Primary treatment of wastewater, also known as mechanical treatment, is the first phase in the purification process of sewage. It focuses on the removal of large and suspended solids through a series of physical actions. At this stage, the wastewater is passed through several tanks and filters which are designed to separate solid waste from […]
