Product Overview

CM Aquatechnik supplies inclined tube and plate settler (lamella settler) modules for high-rate sedimentation in clarifiers and settling tanks. Lamella plates increase the effective settling area by 5–10× compared to conventional open clarifiers, dramatically reducing tank footprint and enabling existing tanks to handle 3–5× greater hydraulic loads.

Key Features

  • Increases existing clarifier capacity by 3–5× without additional tankage
  • PVC and PP construction resists corrosion in aggressive wastewater
  • Modular design for easy installation through access hatches
  • Self-cleaning inclined surfaces prevent sludge accumulation
  • Significantly reduces suspended solids load to downstream treatment
  • Can be combined with flocculation aids for enhanced TSS removal

Applications

Municipal primary and secondary clarification Industrial effluent TSS removal Retrofit of overloaded settling tanks Mining process water clarification Stormwater treatment Pre-treatment for biological systems
