Cosmetics - Sand Trap
Sand trap pista type is used in small-medium plants to separate water from sand. Water to treat is feeded, through a tangential channel, inside tank with circular shape, having bottom with conical shape. Mixture of water and sand is kept in continuous rotation by the force of water itself and by continuous rotation of special blades installed on machine. The particular motion, due to mechanical action of blades, creates secondary transversal currents that, overlapping to the main current of sewage, help concentration and selection of sand in the bottom conical part of tank. Sand settled in the bottom, is sucked by Airlift, while instead the clarifier water exits from the discharge channel.
