AquaDAF* Clarifier
Effectively remove algae and low-density solids for drinking water treatment
Effectively remove algae and low-density solids for drinking water treatment
Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) is an excellent solution for clarifying water with high levels of algae and other low-density solids that cannot be removed efficiently by sedimentation.
The AquaDAF* clarifier combines conventional DAF principles with several enhanced components, including a unique effluent collection system. This and other process improvements allow efficient hydraulics within the DAF flotation zone at superior surface loading rates.
