Secondary Treatment
Clarification Following Biological Treatment
Plate settlers provide efficient secondary clarification of biological floc, delivering clear effluent and reliable solids separation.
Secondary Treatment
Secondary treatment removes the biological solids generated during aeration or fixed-film processes. Effective secondary clarification is essential to return activated sludge and produce clear effluent.
Plate settlers capture biological floc at high loading rates, making them well suited to intensifying secondary clarification or de-bottlenecking overloaded secondary clarifiers.
The compact, stainless-steel design integrates readily with activated sludge, MBBR, and other biological systems while maintaining stable solids capture under variable conditions.
Treatment Challenges & Solutions
Floc Carryover
Short settling distance captures light biological floc reliably.
Sludge Return
Consistent underflow supports stable return activated sludge.
Load Swings
Handles diurnal and seasonal load variation without upset.
