Lamina Tube Settlers

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
