AQUAPAC® Laminar Plate Tube Settlers
Leading water clarification technology
AQUAPAC Laminar Tube Settlers arrange clarifier upflow through flat inclined plates with segregated “tubes”/compartments for the lateral distribution of flow.
Distributed, unhindered solids settlement – “with the flow”
Process attributes:
- process stability
- settled water quality
- flow distribution uniformity
- dense sludge zones
- underflow loss reduced – up to 60% (simple sedimentation mode clarification comparison)
- underflow management automation;
- Ti0 stabilised rigid uPVC material – service life durability
- projected settling area leverage
- efficient flat plate drainage
- diurnal raw water temperature variation tolerance
Factory or Site Assembly
- Factory assembled modules option
- Flatpack supply for site assembly option
