What is lamella thickener?
The lamella thickener is a settling technology that use many inclined plates. This lamella thickener design allow to increase the settling surface and so the settling speed.
What is the work of lamella?
The Lamella clarifier works when a solid/liquid stream that has been flocculated, enters a tank, and flows upward between a pack of inclined plates. The solids fall to the plate surface, where they slide by gravity down to a sludge collection hopper.
How do clarifiers work?
The clarifier works by permitting the heavier and larger particles to settle to the bottom of the clarifier. The particles then form a bottom layer of sludge requiring regular removal and disposal. Clarified water then proceeds through several more steps before being sent for storage and use.
What is the meaning of lamellar?
1 : composed of or arranged in lamellae. 2 : having the form of a thin plate lamellar armor.
What do secondary clarifiers do?
secondary clarifiers is to separate biological floc from the treated liquid waste stream. Secondary clarifiers are most often discussed in conjunction with suspended growth biological wastewater treatment systems.
What is the design basis of clarifiers?
Surface Overflow Rate ft. Final clarifier designs shall be based upon the type of secondary treatment application used. Surface overflow and solids loading rates shall be the general basis for clarifier designs.
What are the types of aerators?
The three types of aeration devices in home usage are packed tower aerators, multi-stage diffused bubble aerators, and spray aerators.
- Packed tower aerator. This system has a tower that may be as tall as 10 feet, filled with packing material.
- Diffused-bubble aerator.
- Spray aerator.
What kind of tank is a lamella thickener?
The Lamella Thickener is a Tank model available in several standard sizes. It is supplied with a sludge thickening tank equipped with a rotating sludge scraper. The tank volume is higher than the hopper. These units are designed for flows and applications with high solids content and thickened underflow.
Who is the manufacturer of the lamella clarifier?
Met-Chem manufactures Inclined Plate Lamella Clarifiers designed to fit your needs and budget. We offer a large variety of clarifier sizes and options needed for your industry and application.
What can a lamella separator be used for?
Lamella Separators provide excellent separation and clarification performance in a wide variety of water treatment applications, such as: The Lamella Separator is available as free standing models or plate packs, in different sizes and plate distances. All models can be customized for various needs.
How is the Monroe lamella plate vertical clarifier designed?
The Monroe lamella plate Vertical Clarifier is designed to provide low cost, efficient solids removal from a wide range of waste and process liquids. The inclined plate design allows the total gravity settling area to be as much as ten times more than the actual floor space occupied by the clarifier.
