Superpulsator* Solids Contact Clarifier (SPC)
The Pulsator® is a pulsed sludge blanket clarifier. The sludge formed during flocculation is made up of an expansion mass. Water, that has coagulated beforehand, arrives from the bottom of the device and flows through this sludge blanket to emerge clarified at the top of the settling tank. The Superpulsator clarifier (SPC) combines the principles of a sludge blanket and solids contact system into a single, high-rate, clarification unit. Capable of removing turbidity, color, TOC and other constituents in both municipal and industrial water applications. The Superpulsator Clarifier combines basic chemical principles and proven clarification technology in a high-rate, solids contact clarifier that offers maximum efficiency. The unique design combines flocculation and clarification functions in one basin for optimal use of space. Vacuum generated flow pulsations create a homogeneous sludge blanket that results in excellent effluent quality at minimal operating costs.
