Lantern Energy products

Lantern Energy specializes in water clarification systems employing inclined plate clarifiers (IPCs) and solids contact clarifier units (SCUs). These systems are effective for removing suspended solids from water via gravity settling, flocculation, and coagulation. Their compact design allows them to occupy only one-fifth of the space of traditional clarifiers by stacking multiple plates, optimizing the entire surface area for settling. The design also minimizes hydraulic short-circuiting and reduces installation costs. Additionally, the lack of moving parts significantly cuts down on annual maintenance expenses. The company's clarifiers are versatile and vary in design, including both rectangular configurations and circular basins with sludge thickening rakes. Efficiency depends on flow rate, type of solids, and concentration. Lantern's systems have been instrumental in various industrial applications, such as brine recycling in rare earth mining, enhancing efficiency in chlor-alkali plants, and optimizing water softening in oil refineries.

The Sand & Multimedia Filtration (SMF) system employs pressure vessels filled with diverse filter media to efficiently extract suspended solids from wastewater. Particularly useful in scenarios where particle size and shape vary significantly, SMFs are designed using multiple layers of media such as crushed granite, garnet, anthracite, and refractory sand. This multilayer configuration enhances both the filtration rate and longevity of the filter compared to conventional sand filters. The system is implemented as a skid-mounted assembly with full automation and piping controls, ensuring reduced maintenance demands and space requirements. SAMCO’s approach capitalizes on the distinct properties of each material, enabling superior flow rates and operational efficiency. It's particularly beneficial in industries such as oil refineries and specialty metal production, which require advanced filtration techniques to manage complex wastewater treatment challenges.

The High Efficiency Reverse Osmosis (HERO™) system from Lantern is designed to deliver ultrapure water with up to 90% recovery. Its sophisticated purification process efficiently manages high silica content while using significantly less water compared to traditional reverse osmosis systems, making it an economical solution for industrial feedwater and wastewater challenges. The HERO™ system excels in processes prone to membrane fouling from organic matter and heavy scaling, such as scrubber blowdown treatment and seasonally variable feedwater. It increases operational volume, extends the service life of membranes, and reduces overall operational costs and system footprint by as much as 30%. By offering tailored solutions like the HERO™ system, Lantern helps industries address demanding water purification and waste treatment needs effectively.
