PotentialBallast Decanter

SHARE

Decanters are deployed in sequencing batch reactor (SBR)/ Cyclic wastewater processes to separate the sludge from clear effluent. We have developed a Ballast decanter which is a scum/solids excluding floating type decanter. The decanter is air powered and can be driven by the plant`s aeration system thereby eliminating the need for any complex equipment. Vertical movement of the decanter is established by injecting or releasing pressurized air. The emergency level is fixed at a maximum position to eliminate possible overflow. The lower position is arrested by a stopper provided at the bottom of the tank. The entire system can be moved to ground level for maintenance with help of the winch.

We manufacture Ballast decanter which is a scum/solid excluding floating type decanter for use in SBR/ Cyclic wastewater processes. The decanter is air powered and is driven by the plant’s aeration system. The decanter has two positions, cut-off and work. The decanter is moved in a vertical direction by injecting or releasing pressurized air into the body of the decanter.
