Wastewater Treatment, Perfected
DAF Analytical Upgrades
pH Sensors - Optimized Separation
Optimal DAF pH: 6.5-8.5
Ensures optimal chemical reactions for coagulation/flocculation.
Optimized Chemical Dosing – Ensure coagulants and flocculants work efficiently
Improved Solids Separation – Enhanced microbubble attachment to contaminants
Prevention of Scaling and Corrosion – Reduced damage to DAF components
ORP Sensors - Optimized Chemical Control
Optimal ORP Range: +200 to +800 mV
Ensures precise oxidation and reduction reactions for coagulation, flotation, and disinfection.
✅ Optimized Coagulant Dosing – Adjusts coagulant and polymer feed based on ORP levels to improve flocculation efficiency.
✅ Enhanced Oil, Grease, and Sulfide Removal – Maintains proper oxidation levels to break down emulsified oils and precipitate metals for better separation.
✅ Prevention of Anaerobic Conditions – Reduces sludge buildup and hydrogen sulfide formation, preventing odors and system inefficiencies.
✅ Regulatory Compliance for Disinfection – Ensures chlorine or ozone dosing is within the optimal range (+650 to +800 mV) for effective pathogen removal before discharge
Turbidity Sensors - Real-Time Effluent Monitoring
Optimal Turbidity: <10 NTU (for regulatory compliance)
Turbidity sensors measure the amount of suspended solids in water by detecting how much light is scattered by particles. This provides a direct indication of DAF separation efficiency.
✅ Ensures Compliance – Monitors turbidity in real-time to maintain discharge limits (<10 NTU for many industries) and prevent violations.
✅ Prevents Process Upsets – Detects sudden spikes in turbidity, indicating issues like poor coagulation, air saturation problems, or excessive scum buildup.
✅ Automated Process Adjustments – Integrates with chemical dosing and skimmer controls to optimize separation when turbidity levels fluctuate.
✅ Reduces Chemical Waste – Avoids overdosing of coagulants and polymers by ensuring just the right amount of treatment is applied.
Optical Sensors - Confirm Your Solids and Water Clarity
Coagulant dosing adjustment at TSS > 50 mg/L
Optical Sensors use light-based detection to monitor bubble formation, sludge interface levels, and solids concentration.
✅ Optimized Air-to-Solids Ratio – Ensures proper microbubble distribution by monitoring air injection and dissolved air concentration.
✅ Accurate Sludge Blanket Measurement – Detects sludge accumulation and interface levels, preventing excessive sludge carryover or under-removal.
✅ Prevents Effluent Contamination – Identifies floating solids or scum overflow, allowing for quick corrective action.
✅ Improves Skimmer and Pump Efficiency – Provides real-time feedback to adjust skimmer speed, sludge pump activation, or chemical dosing for optimal performance.
