Clarifiers
Product Description
AquaPoint manufactures mechanical and hopper bottom style clarifiers for secondary settling of biologically treated wastewater. In both configurations, water enters the clarifier through a stilling well to reduce the energy of the influent waste stream. Within the clarifier solids settle out of the water column and a mechanical sludge rake or hopper bottom sump concentrates the solids so they can easily be removed with a mechanical or air lift pump. A skimmer device removes any floating scum from the surface of the clarifier and clear water known as supernatant flows over a weir to discharge. Clarifiers may be fabricated of fiberglass, steel or concrete.
