Flotation

Flotation plants for wastewater treatment involving stringent cleaning efficiency requirements

In the flotation process, gas bubbles facilitate the creation of aggregates from dispersed particles; these then float in the liquid medium and can be easily separated.

EnviroChemie uses two time-tested processes for flotation systems: dissolved-air flotation and electroflotation.

Our experts are on hand to advise you and select the process and plant types that best match your requirements:

Flomar® dissolved-air flotation plants with a highly effective, non-blocking FlowJet-type dissolved-air system.
Lugan® compact dissolved-air flotation plants, standardised and very versatile
E-Flo Dr. Baer electroflotation plants

Typical applications for flotation plants:

Wastewater pre-treatment for further treatment purposes
Treatment of wastewater that is highly contaminated with organic substances or contains solids
Removal of oils, particles and fibres from wastewater
Secondary treatment of biologically cleaned wastewater
