The Salsnes Clarifier, which benefits from a fully integrated dewatering system, has solved a major overload problem at a biological treatment plant in Canada At the Enderby WWTW in British Colombia, the highly effective dewatering and thickening of the Salsnes Clarifying System has reduced the SAS volume (surplus sludge) from 15m3/day with 1-2% dry matter to just 1.3 m3/day, with 20-25% dry matter, making sludge disposal much easier and far more economic

New highly compact clarifier for water treatment
A highly compact and cost-effective clarifier, which benefits from a fully integrated dewatering system, has been introduced to the UK exclusively by Vexamus Water
As well as providing a very efficient pre-treatment stage, this innovative process - available exclusively in the UK from Vexamus Water - also has the benefit over conventional systems of a much smaller footprint.
The original Enderby WWTW design included coarse screen/grit removal as preliminary treatment, oxidation ditch and a final clarifier as biological (secondary) treatment.
The innovative Salsnes clarifier, which is totally enclosed and odour-free, is widely used in Europe for primary clarification and is also suitable for food or fish processing factories where there is a need to treat water, remove floc or reduce the loss of raw materials.
It can remove solids to as low as 15-30 micron and provide an essential first treatment stage for membrane applications.
