Maximizing Settling in Minimal Space: DAGYEE's Lamella Clarifier Unlocks Plant Capacity

A Revolutionary Force for Water Treatment Efficiency: The DAGYEE lamella clarifier – Trusted by the European Market!
Wuxi Dajiang Environmental Technology Co., Ltd
Water is the source of life and an essential element for modern industry and urban development. With global standards for water resource recycling and environmental protection constantly rising, there is an urgent demand for high-efficiency, energy-saving, and compact, high-performance water treatment systems. Today, we are proud to announce the successful export of the DAGYEE Lamella Clarifier (Inclined Plate Clarifier) to Europe. This shipment injects powerful momentum into the local wastewater treatment systems, earning widespread acclaim from our customers!
The Lamella Clarifier is not a new concept, but it represents a revolutionary breakthrough in sedimentation technology concerning efficiency and space utilization. With its excellent manufacturing processes and relentless pursuit of detail, DAGYEE has elevated this classic technology to new heights.
I. In-Depth
Analysis: What is a Lamella Clarifier?
A Lamella Clarifier,
also known as an inclined plate or inclined tube clarifier, is a highly
efficient solid-liquid separation device. The key difference between it and a
traditional circular or rectangular sedimentation tank is the series of
inclined parallel plates (Lamella Plates) or tubes (Tube Settlers) set up
inside the tank.
Operating
Principle: Small Footprint, High Efficiency
Traditional clarifiers
rely on long water retention times to allow suspended solids to settle
naturally under gravity. The ingenious design of the Lamella Clarifier utilizes
the principle of "shallow-depth
settling":
· Increased Effective Settling Area: The
inclined parallel plates or tube bundles divide the tank into hundreds of effective settling areas. This total
effective surface area can be many times, even ten times, larger than the
physical footprint of a conventional clarifier.
· Reduced Settling Distance: Suspended
particles only need to travel a very short distance (the vertical distance
between the inclined plates) to reach the plate surface. Once attached to the
plate, the particles slide down the inclined surface into the sludge hopper
below.
· Optimized Hydrodynamics: Influent
water typically enters from the bottom or side and flows upward through the
channels between the inclined plates, creating counter-current sedimentation or co-current sedimentation. This laminar flow state helps particles
settle quickly and stably, significantly boosting separation efficiency.
In short, by utilizing
three-dimensional space, the Lamella Clarifier transforms the solid-liquid
separation process from a two-dimensional plane into a highly efficient,
three-dimensional structure, vastly increasing the treatment capacity per unit
of land area.
II. Four Core Advantages of the DAGYEE Lamella
Clarifier
DAGYEE’s Lamella
Clarifiers adhere to the highest standards in design, material selection, and
manufacturing, ensuring outstanding performance and long-term operational
reliability. Here are the key advantages that led our product to success in the
European market:
1. The
Ultimate Space-Saving Champion
This is the most
significant advantage of Lamella technology. Through its efficient arrangement
of inclined plates, the DAGYEE clarifier can reduce the required footprint to
only 65% to 80% of that
needed for a conventional clarifier. This advantage is crucial in
space-constrained urban wastewater treatment plants or high-density industrial
parks. The reduced footprint also allows the system to be installed indoors,
providing better control over temperature, odor, and protection from external
environmental interference.
2. Excellent
Solid-Liquid Separation Efficiency and Stability
· High Overflow Rate: Due to the
massively increased effective settling surface area, DAGYEE’s equipment can
handle a Surface Overflow Rate (SOR) 2
to 4 times higher than traditional clarifiers. This means a much
higher flow rate can be treated with the same footprint.
· Superior Effluent Quality: The
shortened settling path ensures that even fine particles are quickly separated.
Typically, the system can effectively remove over 90% of Total Suspended Solids
(TSS), significantly reducing effluent turbidity. This lightens the load on
subsequent advanced treatment processes (such as filtration or membrane
systems) and makes it an ideal pre-treatment unit for demanding processes like Ultrafiltration (UF) membranes.
3. Robust
and Durable Premium Manufacturing
As evidenced by the
Lamella Clarifier unit successfully shipped to Europe (as seen in the image),
DAGYEE’s products feature a high-quality all-steel construction design, treated with professional
anti-corrosion coatings (such as heavy-duty anti-corrosion paint).
· Long-Term Reliability: Compared to
easily fragile or aging plastic tube settlers, the all-steel structure provides
unparalleled mechanical strength and impact resistance, drastically reducing
the risk of plate damage or detachment.
· Low Maintenance Requirements: The
overall design is simple, with no complex mechanical moving parts (only
requiring an influent pump). This ensures stable system operation,
significantly reduces mechanical failure rates, and lowers daily maintenance
costs, achieving a low Total Cost
of Ownership (TCO).
4. Environmental
and Operational Cost Optimization
· High Energy Efficiency: The
separation process relies primarily on gravity, and the system only needs to
power the influent pump. Energy consumption is far lower than systems requiring
extensive mixing or air flotation.
· Simplified Sludge Handling: DAGYEE’s
inclined plate design helps form a more concentrated sludge, effectively
reducing the subsequent workload and costs associated with sludge treatment
(such as thickening and dewatering).
· Flexible Chemical Usage: While
coagulants/flocculants can be used to enhance efficiency when treating
extremely fine particles, the high physical separation capability of the
clarifier often allows for reduced
or even eliminated use of chemical agents in many applications,
promoting "green" water treatment.
III. Case Study: Premium Manufacturing, Excellent
Performance!
DAGYEE's Lamella
Clarifiers have demonstrated exceptional performance in various stringent
industrial and municipal water treatment projects globally. Especially in the
European market, our equipment has been successfully applied in the following
key areas and has received high praise from customers for "running
effectively and reliably":
· Municipal Wastewater Primary/Secondary
Clarification: Rapidly removing suspended solids from domestic sewage
to ensure compliance with discharge standards.
· Industrial Wastewater Treatment: Widely
used in mining tailings water, metallurgical wastewater, power plant boiler
feed water, and food/beverage production effluent. It is particularly effective
for industrial wastewater containing fine particles and high specific gravity
solids.
· Sand Filter Backwash Water Recovery: Effectively
capturing fine filter media and impurities from backwash water, enabling the
recovery and reuse of water resources.
· Membrane System Pre-treatment: Serving
as a pre-treatment stage for Ultrafiltration (UF) or Reverse Osmosis (RO)
membrane systems, significantly reducing influent turbidity and particulate
load, and extending the service life of expensive membrane elements.
