At GN Separation, we are committed to providing advanced, efficient solutions for liquid and solid separation across various industries. One of our key offerings is the Slant Plate Clarifier, also known as the Inclined Plate Clarifier. This innovative piece of equipment is designed to optimize the separation of solids from liquids in a wide range of applications, delivering superior performance in a compact footprint.
How the GN Slant Plate Clarifier Works
The Slant Plate Clarifier operates by utilizing gravity to achieve effective separation. When a mixture of solids and liquids—either flocculated or not—enters through the inlet of the clarifier, it flows upward between a series of slanted plates. As the liquid moves, the solid particles settle on the plates, sliding down to a collection hopper at the bottom of the unit. The clarified liquid, or effluent, exits through orifice holes at the top.
Key Benefits of the GN Slant Plate Clarifier
-
Cost-Effective & Space-Saving: Compared to traditional settling tanks, the GN Slant Plate Clarifier offers a much smaller footprint while providing a large effective settling area. This makes it an ideal choice for facilities looking to maximize space efficiency without compromising performance.
-
Energy-Efficient: Unlike decanter centrifuges, the Slant Plate Clarifier requires less power to operate, making it a more energy-efficient option for liquid-solid separation.
-
Low Maintenance: The Slant Plate Clarifier features minimal moving parts, making it easy to maintain. The only mechanical component is the auger below, which transfers the collected sludge.
-
Versatile Operation: The system can function with or without chemical dosing, offering flexibility depending on the specific application. Additionally, the clarifier is designed for continuous operation, running 24/7 with ease.
