Obervation: Sludge clumps, from an inch to a few feet in diameter, rise and disperse on the clarifier surface. Gas bubbles may be seen rising in the clarifier. The settling test shows normal settling during the first 30 minutes, but the sludge rises within one to four hours.
Summary This chapter contains sections titled: General Description Design and Operational Criteria Applications
Lektratek Water Technology has the ability and experience to provide either gravity thickeners, DAF and/or mechanical belt thickener systems to remove excessive sludge from effluents to reduce capital costs relating to the provision of sludge handling equipment and the operational costs of the handling and treatment of the sludge sludge.
In addition, thickeners are an economic means for of process waters. Clarifiers are extremely efficient for treatment of waters. MIP Process Technologies thickeners consist of the following basic parts, each of which is supplied in a number of variations to best suit a particular application: Applications. Tank; Drive unit and optional lifting ...
To measure sludge level where clogging and fouling can occur (primary and secondary clarifiers, sludge tanks, thickeners, etc.), we recommend sensors with a wiper. For sludge level measurement in a secondary clarifier that has a surface skimmer or in clear water sedimentation tanks, you can use a standard sludge level detector.
Chemical Feed Pumps and Systems Gravity Sludge Thickeners Gravity thickeners are designed for most applications involving sludge thickening. Solids are thickened by gravity, then collected at the bottom of the basin and raked to a collection sump for removal. The clarified effluent exits over the plates and out of the basin.

Monitor the secondary clarifier effluent pH. A drop in pH along with the presence of gas bubbles in the final settling tank usually indicates a septic sludge bed condition. Check …
The common thickener underpins the performance of most hydrometallurgical facilities. Thickeners are simple, reliable, effective and efficient-under the right conditions.
We design, fabricate and supply a comprehensive range of thickeners and clarifiers; Our thickener range includes high-rate thickeners, high-density thickeners, paste thickeners and conventional thickeners and offers designs up to 100m in diameter, catering for a variety of applications in various industries; Our clarifier range includes pinned ...
Reduces the volume and increases the solids concentration of waste sludge Monroe Environmental's Circular Thickeners are designed to receive waste sludge from various unit processes and prepare them for dewatering and other sludge conditioning processes. Thickeners reduce the volume of sludge which reduces the cost associated with …

thickening tank may be required. Sludge Thickening Thickening and dewatering the sludge is usually the limiting factor in maximizing clarifier flow rates. A large tank with a minimum of two hours' retention time is needed. Moreover, the tank should be de-signed to promote fast settling and produce a clear, high-quality superna-tant. Sludge ...

Parnaby thickeners and clarifiers form an integral part in all water management solutions. The primary purpose of a thickener is to allow enough settlement time for the dirty water to be cleaned and then ...
When dealing with sludge removal in larger gravity thickener tanks, an autonomously operated or remote operated submersible dredge can be utilized. To pump out smaller gravity thickeners, EDDY Pump has designed both a hydraulic and electric version of our submersible slurry pump that can be deployed directly into the tank.
4 FLS — Thickeners and Clarifiers High-rate thickeners High-rate thickeners are designed to provide roughly 12 times the throughput of conventional machines of similar …
The situation is similar in a continuous clarifier or thickener; clarification occurs in the upper part of the vessel and thickening in the lower. Clarifiers and thickeners are usually either rectangular or circular in cross-section, but the basic flow pattern is the same in both (Figure 1). Feed suspension enters
The primary sludge pumps are critical to the plant process because without them the clarifiers would be out of service. The scope of this contract will be to for the purchase of Borger sludge Pumps. This agreement will cover the sale and repair of all Boerger equipment, including pumps, macerating technologies, and spare parts.
Rapid sludge removal type with pipe arms, tapered rectangular suction arms and scraper type with multi-draw off pipes and visual sludge well are also available. Amwell produces a split ductile iron Class 6 precision gear (after heat treat) with replaceable races.
Our uniquely designed clarifier/thickener provides maximum underflow density capability of up to 70% w/w solids content, and maximum flow capacity of up to 7000 GPM. Our design effectively separates the settling, dewatering and compaction functional volumes effectively eliminating the high torque conditions frequently suffered with traditional ...

Schreiber's Peripheral Drive Clarifiers are favored because of their ability to accomplish rapid sludge removal and continuous collection and removal of floatables. Instead of the typical center-drive high torque arrangement, Schreiber Clarifiers utilize the mechanical leverage and mechanical simplicity of a peripherally driven system.
Flocculant dilution systems are being installed at both the preoxidation thickener and the CCD thickeners. Each system will provide a minimum 100:1 dilution to each thickener using its own overflow. A vertical centrifugal pump will deliver preoxidation thickener overflow from its sump back to the flocculant distribution header.
The pump system incorporates a recirculation valve that premixes the slurry or sludge which allows for higher production and faster cleanout of the tank. The EDDY Pump system has the capability of pumping out the …
A thickener will give you a high density underflow while a clarifier will not. The clarifier overflow is typically cleaner or clearer than the thickener overflow would be. Clarifiers, depending on the …
6. Proponents claim that the use of a "sludge ring" leads to a more uniform RAS draw-off. a. Use of a "sludge ring" may cause drawing a more dilute sludge from the ports opposed to and behind the scraper blades …. unless there's sufficient sludge blanket over it. b. Carrying a "sufficient" sludge blanket reduces the effective clarifier volume and
The rotary lobe pumps are typically used to pump sludge to and from thickeners, separators (such as belt presses, centrifuges, and rotary presses), digesters and clarifiers. They handle flows from 8 gpm to 2000 gpm and pressures up to 150 psi. The customer can specify an in-line grinder, filter or knock-out tank should hard solids …
