Lamella Clarifiers:

Lamella Clarifier is popularly known as tilted plate separator. They are designed to provide more settling area to the suspended particles in water. In Lamella Clarifier an appropriate number of inclined plates are arranged in a particular pattern to allow the influent distribution and self-cleaning of the settled solids. The Lamella Clarifier can be constructed in counter current, cross current or co current system based on the application.

The suspended solids present in the water settle on the inclined plates and slip gradually in the sludge collecting hopper bottom. The hopper bottom is periodically drained to flush out the suspended solids.

Our Lamella Clarifiers are compact, economical, well-engineered and efficient inclined plate type clarifier used for clarification of water having higher suspended and colloidal particles.

Overall plant footprint area can be reduced by 90% using this type of clarifier in order to remove the suspended solids. The compact design minimizes hydraulic disturbances caused by wind or temperature changes. Balanced flow distribution ensures equal flow to each plate and across the plate surface area preventing short-circulation.

Conventional clarification equipment requires 10 times more physical area to even begin to approach the same settling capacity of a Lamella clarifier. This means faster settling in one tenth the space because the effective gravity settling area of the inclined plate design equals each plate’s area projected on a horizontal surface.
