Clarifier & Thickener
Primary Clarifier
FFP’s primary Circular Clarifiers are designed to receive raw waste water after it has been pre–screened to remove large objects and grit. This primary sedimentation tank will produce a homogeneous liquid capable of being treated biologically and a sludge that can be separately treated or processed.
Secondary (Final) Clarifier
FFP’s secondary Circular Clarifiers for wastewater are designed to provide a high quality effluent suitable for discharge to the environment or further treatment. The FFP secondary clarifier effectively separates the biological floc and colloidal solids to produce wastewater with very low levels of organic material and suspended matter.
Thickeners
Circular Thickeners are an important step between upstream process, Clarifiers/Separators and downstream De–Watering and Sludge conditioning processes. A well designed thickener provides storage and equalization, and reduces the costs associated with De–Watering. Thickeners are similar to other circular clarifiers in appearance and operation, but typically require higher operating torque and variety of sludge collection designs for optimal performance.
