Settling Tanks

Settling tanks play an important role in the overall wastewater treatment process. Discover how you can manually or automatically separate solids from your water.

A sedimentation tank allows suspended particles to settle out of water or wastewater as it flows slowly through the tank, thereby providing some degree of purification.

These settling tanks act as above-ground separators bringing the solids out through the bottom with automatic pinch valves into dumping hoppers. Oil and grease pass through the top of the tanks and don’t co-mingle with the settled solids.

Three Phase Separators

Three-phase separators, (or clarifiers), are used for many applications requiring basic filtration before a waste stream can be discharged to a municipal sewer system.

The basic concept is that wastewater enters the first chamber where the water is slowed and solids have an opportunity to settle out.

The chamber has a downturned pipe going to the second chamber. Since oil, grease, and some solids float, they get trapped in the first chamber. The concept behind multiple chambers is that the wastewater has an opportunity to clarify by passing through the chambers in sequence.

Above-Ground Separators

ClearBlu also offers above-ground separators for cleaning solids and separating free grease and oil. This method is more expensive but can reduce operating costs by up to 90%.
