Inclined Plate Separators

Inclined plate separators are designed to remove and thicken suspended solids and flocculated solids from water and wastewater in one complete system. The system consists of rapid mixing and flocculation tanks, followed by an inclined plate section with either a sludge thickener or a sludge hopper underneath.

• 90 percent smaller footprint than conventional clarifiers
• Efficient operation, solids loading and feed distribution
• Counter current design reducing re-entrainment of settled solids from bottom of plates
• Proven experience and performance with flows ranging from 15 gpm to more than 250 mgd
• Low maintenance
• Few moving parts
• Low-cost field erection
• Quick start up
• Self-cleaning system
