Up to 80% Smaller Footprint

The inclined plate configuration multiplies effective settling area, allowing the same treatment capacity in a fraction of the space required by conventional clarifiers.

Higher Throughput

Surface loading rates of 1.5–3.5 m/h enable significantly higher volumetric throughput compared to conventional sedimentation at 0.5–1.0 m/h.

95%+ TSS Removal

Proven removal efficiency for total suspended solids across a wide range of municipal and industrial applications, often exceeding 95%.

Fast Installation

Pre-engineered and modular systems can be commissioned in weeks rather than months, minimizing project timelines and disruption.

Modular & Scalable

Add plate packs or modules to increase capacity without building new tanks. Future-proof your investment.

Lower CAPEX & OPEX

Smaller footprint means lower civil costs. Gravity-driven process means minimal energy consumption. SS construction reduces maintenance.

Retrofit-Ready

Plate settler modules can be installed in existing clarifiers and sedimentation tanks to increase capacity up to 300% without new construction.

Versatile Applications

Effective across municipal wastewater, industrial effluent, drinking water, and specialized applications from mining to food processing.
