High-speed clarifier ACTIFLO® Softening

ACTIFLO® Softening removes hardness and alkalinity to improve water quality for municipalities and industries. It combines both clarification and softening processes to achieve optimal water treatment. Designed to further enhance water quality, ACTIFLO® Softening combines in a single compact treatment unit both clarification and softening operations to reduce water alkalinity and hardness. At the same time, the process removes other water components such as silica, heavy metals, fluorides and phosphates as well as TSS (Total Suspended Solids) and organic matter. Rapid and efficient, ACTIFLO® Softening produces very high quality water. Very small footprint: ACTIFLO® Softening is up to 10 times smaller than conventional softening processes High rise rate: Up to 120 m/h Retrofit: Can be easily implemented in existing tanks Enhanced chemical precipitation with Turbomix™ draft tube Minimizes coagulant consumption due to solids precipitation with calcium carbonates Sludge up to 8% dry solids; can be easily thickened and dewatered Easy start-up: Within few minutes Plant-wide automation: ACTIFLO® Softening can be fully automated and integrated into existing plants A softening tank with TurbomixTM draft tube and recycling of carbonates sludge A coagulation tank A flocculation tank with TurbomixTM A settling tank with lamella and scraper A recirculation line with "MA" hydrocyclone
