0237x Cross Flow Lamella Settler UFT-FluidClearX
Intended Pupose
The goal of stormwater treatment in sedimentation structures is removal of sediments, in particular the very fine fractions of total suspended solids (TSS). Heavy metals and other pollutants preferably accumulate to those fine materials. Recent findings show that settling tanks of traditional design have only poor efficiency for this fine sediment.
An innovative solution for improved sedimentation is the Cross Flow Lamella Settler UFT-FluidClearX, in which the polluted rainwater is passed between plates. The suspended solids only have a small settling path length of a few centimetres.
Properties of the Cross Flow Lamella Settler UFT-FluidClearX
- high sedimentation efficiency due to uniform flow through the plate packs
- horizontal flow direction in the longitudinal direction of the tank
- no gutter system for draining of the purified water required
- no remixing of sliding sludge into the flow
- hydraulic coordination of clarifier overflow and emergency overflow in the same manner as in a traditional sedimentation tank
- can be combined with the Self Regulating Clarifier Overflow UFT-FluidClari for flow control at the clarifier overflow
- can also be used in shallow tanks
- ideal for retrofitting of existing rectangular settling tanks
