Inclined plate lamella clarifier tank is an efficient solid-liquid separation equipment

work process of lamella clarifier tank

The SS (suspended solids) in the raw water will form flocs after adding coagulant and flocculant, then flow to the inclined plate clarifier .Thoese flocs will accumulate into a thin layer of mud on the bottom surface of the inclined plate, then slide down to the tank bottom by gravity, and sink into the sludge hopper.The settling sludge can be discharged by sludge pump and controlled by timer according to the worksite real sludge qty .Discharged sludge from inclined plate sedimentation tank generally are treated by filter press or multi-disc screw press for further dewatering .The supernatant gradually rises to the triangular overflow weir for discharge, which can be directly discharged or reused. There is a shallow sedimentation tank between every two parallel inclined plates of the sedimentation tank. Make the treated water (or waste water) move with each other and separate with the settled sludge in the sedimentary shallow layer.According to the force of their mutual movement, it can be divided into three different separation modes: co-current flow, opposite-directional flow and lateral flow.
