Lamella Type Clarifier Plates

LC-Series Lamella type Clarifiers

Ecologix clarifiers dramatically reduce the footprint of traditional clarifiers and maximize particle settling by using inclined lamella parallel plates to increase the settling surface area. Ecologix can provide clarifiers that are simple, flexible and extremely effective for removal of metals. We offer skid-mounted, fully integrated systems and stand-alone clarifiers for any industrial application.

Lamella Clarifier Process

System Overview

Clarifiers are highly efficient in removing heavy metals, ink and other contaminants from wastewater. Lamella-type clarifiers are the perfect solution when you need a system that will occupy less floor space. Ecologix clarifiers feature integrated rapid mix tank and floc tank, eliminating the need to buy these tanks separately and providing a dramtically simpler installation process. Our design ensures precise mixing so chemical coagulants can be used effectively and efficiently. Low shear mixers on the floc tanks help mix the coagulants without breaking the floc.


Features

    • Epoxy Coated, Carbon Steel Tank
    • Flash Mixing Tank
    • Floc Mixing Tank
    • Plate Packs
    • Mixers

 

Benefits

    • Treat Flows up to 200 GPM
    • Vertical Installation = Small Footprint
    • Low Installation/Maintenance Costs
    • Removable FRP Plates
    • Engineered for Hydraulic Distribution Between Plates
Lamella Clarifier

Ecologix clarifiers dramatically reduce the footprint of traditional clarifiers and maximize particle settling by the use of inclined lamella parallel plates and tube settlers to increase the settling surface area. Influent first enters the clarifier through the flash mix tank where it is rapidly mixed with a polymer flocculant. This reaction allows the particles to separate from the water and coagulate into larger particles. Then the water enters a slow mix chamber which gently agitates the water/polymer mix and further increases the particle size. The water flows down a settling chamber in the center channel of the clarifier and enters the plate packs through the sides and bottom. As the water flows up the plate packs the solids settle on the plate packs and slide into the sludge hopper at the bottom of the unit. The clean water at the top of the unit enters into flumes through orifices then flow to the outlet chamber.
