Dissolved air flotation (DAF) systems
Published on by Michal Rosenzweig, Previous Marketing Manager Fluence for Fluence Corporation
Fluence has been developing and continually improving dissolved air flotation (DAF) systems for decades, and has successfully implemented installations in a variety of applications.
DAF systems can be applied as a pretreatment to meet a municipality’s specific limits for oil, grease, or suspended solids, or to remove contaminants that would negatively impact an industrial biological wastewater treatment system downstream.
DAF technology is ideally suited to neutral-density particles and those that are buoyant or settle slowly. This is particularly relevant to the food industry and other businesses that produce light, high-volume solids that are resistant to settling. DAF also takes up about 25% of the equivalent surface area compared to conventional clarification technologies.
- Total suspended solids (TSS) reduction up to 97%
- Chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal up to 85%
- Low-cost operation and maintenance
- Standard and customized units meet a variety of application and flow ranges
- Designed for ease of installation and use
- Suitable for high-salinity water
