IAF/DAF Solid Separators
For phosphorous, algae, oil and solid separation by air in liquid wastewater
Forms and removes sludge from liquid flows by flocculation, flotation from entrained air and separation via launder. Air is introduced via IAF (induced air flow) & DAF (dissolved air flow).
Used in primary treatment of wastewater for algae removal, phosphorus removal, biomass (solids) removal, oil and grease removal, water reclamation for re-use, effluent polishing, dairy processing, winery & abattoir industries.
Key Features & Benefits
Perform solid-liquid separation without high reliance on chemical use. The IAF (induced air flotaton) and DAF (disolved air flotation) processes are ideal for many solids-liquid separation applications.
Reduced chemical use
- Small footprint
- Fast separation
- Flexible operation
- Pilot Plants available on request
Treated effluent from a traditional oxidation pond had excessive amounts of phosphorus and suspended solids, exceeding legal limits. This was having an adverse effect on the Ohinemuri River through the Karangahake Gorge, a popular recreational area...
