Tube settlers and parallel plates increase the settling capacity of circular/rectangular clarifiers by reducing the vertical distance before agglomerating to form a larger particles.
Tube settler systems are an inexpensive solution for drinking water and waste-water plants to increase treatment capacity, reduce new installation footprints, improve effluent water quality, and decrease operating cost.
ADVANTAGES
High settling rate
Settling of smaller flocs also
Tube settlers increases the settling area hence area required compares to Conventional clarifiers is less.
