Water Clarification
Clarifying Raw and Process Water
Plate settlers clarify raw surface water, process water, and reuse streams, removing suspended solids and turbidity ahead of filtration and disinfection.
Water Clarification
Water clarification prepares raw or process water for downstream treatment by removing suspended solids, turbidity, and organic matter. It is a critical first step in drinking water, industrial process water, and water reuse schemes.
Plate settlers are well suited to water clarification because they handle variable raw-water turbidity while maintaining a small footprint. Combined with coagulation and flocculation, they consistently produce low-turbidity clarified water.
Clarified water from a plate settler stage extends filter run times, reduces coagulant carryover, and protects membranes and disinfection systems from particulate and organic fouling.
Key Benefits
Low Turbidity Output
Reliable clarified water quality for downstream filtration.
Handles Variability
Stable performance despite seasonal raw-water turbidity swings.
Protects Downstream
Reduces load on filters, membranes, and disinfection stages.
