Clariflocculator
Description
A Clariflocculator is a equipment used in the purification of water and wastewater treatment processes. It combines the functions of both a clarifier and a flocculator in a single unit.
Flocculation: In the first stage, the Clariflocculator facilitates the flocculation process. Flocculation is a chemical treatment in which flocculant is added to the effluent to encourage the formation of flocs or agglomeration of suspended solids to form a bigger floc, as of which the density of particle increases thereby ensuring effective settling with clear overflow.
Clarification: After flocculation, the effluent is allowed to settle in a quiescent (still) environment within the Clariflocculator. This clarifies the effluent by removing the suspended solids, impurities, and contaminants that have agglomerated into sludge.
Industrial Application of Clariflocculator:
- Municipal Water Treatment Plant
- Effluent Treat Plant
- Waste Water Treatment Plant
