HWE Clariflocculator Mechanism
HWE manufacture both centre driven and end driven clariflocculator. It is a combination of both flocculation and clarification in a single unit. Clariflocculator consists of concentric circular compartments. The inner compartment in clariflocculator is the flocculation chamber and the outer compartment is the clarifier.
HWE clariflocculator are well suited for water treatment plant, waste treatment plant and effluent treatment plant. Various material of construction for clariflocculator mechanism are available viz. mild steel, stainless steel, FRP lined, galvanized steel etc. Clariflocculator tank are generally made in RCC. However, small clariflocculator tank can be fabricated in steel. HWE clariflocculator are tailor made equipment to suit the civil design of contractor. Current collector is provided along with clariflocculator suitable for connecting to underground / overhead cables. It is recommended to use constant sludge bleed arrangement along with clariflocculator for proper functioning of clariflocculator.
The Clariflocculator mechanism will comprise of the following:
• Main driving Bridge cum walkway, 900mm / 1200 mm wide, one end resting over traction carriage and the other end over the Bridge centre support. The bridge would be made out of M.S. Channels & suitable braced and shall have a walkway of 5mm/6mm/8mm thick chequered plates or grating.
• Central Bearing, resting on the central pier the mechanism, it shall have a basic turntable.
• Bridge center support with hinge pin arrangement rests over the center mechanism.
• Traction trolley, suitably fabricated out of rigid rolled section and properly placed to the tangential line over the walls.
• Two / four number flocculators suspended from the main bridge.
HWE Clariflocculator are used in various water boards. Few of them are MP Jal Nigam, MPUDC, RWSS Orissa, MJP, SWSM (U.P.), PHED Rajasthan, GWSSB, Kerala Water Authority, Karnataka Urban Water Supply Board, TWAD etc.
