AquaDAF® Dissolved Air Flotation
High Rate Clarification System
     

The AquaDAF® system incorporates a patented effluent collection system that provides operating rates unequaled by conventional flotation technologies. Solids formed during the coagulation process are removed by attaching microbubbles to the floc, floating solids to the surface, and skimming by mechanical or hydraulic means. The resulting clarified effluent is free of organics such as algae, cryptosporidium, and giardia.

  • Regardless of raw water properties, the AquaDAF® system is easy to start up.
  • Its high rate of clarification (12-18 gpm/sq. ft.) means the AquaDAF® can be retrofitted without space demands or high construction costs.
  • No polymer is required, reducing chemical costs and the possibility of membrane fouling.

Dissolved air flotation is an excellent treatment solution for water having high levels of algae and other low-density particles that cannot be removed efficiently and effectively with sedimentation. The AquaDAF® system is suitable for many other applications, including low turbidity (<30 NTU), cold water, water with high color and TOC, filter backwash applications, and membrane pre-treatment.
