longitudinal Suction - Sludge recovery – SLG Clarifier
Rectangular secondary clarifier for wastewater.

The SLG rectangular clarifier achieves the settlement and separation of biomass and suspended solids form the treated water. It is a longitudinal flow clarifier with flat bottom. It operates in conjunction with the aeration tanks in the activated sludge process providing secondary treatment.

The scraper mechanism comprises a bridge that automatically travels back and forth. This bridge is equipped with draught tubes.

Sludge is extracted using a negative pressure siphon that is mounted on the bridge, and that transfers the sludge from the collection tank to a side channel.

profit
  • Compact solution, ideal for use where land is at a premium, easier to incorporate into a building
  • Continuous withdrawal and optimized retention time of the biological sludge within the tanks: better quality of biomass reinjected into aeration tanks
  • Optimized inlet distribution and outlet recovery of treated water
  • Ease of maintenance due to the travelling bridge
