K-S Dissolved Air Flotation
Komline-Sanderson Dissolved Air Flotation Clarifier is suited for wastewater streams containing solids, oils, and greases, which are difficult to settle or have a tendency to float.
With proper chemical conditioning we remove colloidal and emulsified materials. Complete pretreatment systems can be supplied.

• High rate design
• High removal efficiency
• Meet effluent discharge requirements
• Recovering suspended material
• Reclaiming water for reuse
• Thickening of slurries and sludges

How does it work?
Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) is a process for the removal of fine suspended material from an aqueous suspension. The term “flotation” indicates something floated on or at the surface of a liquid. The DAF provides the energy for effective flotation in the form of extremely fine air bubbles, which become attached to the suspended material to be removed. This attachment of bubbles to the particle “reduces” the density of the particle resulting in increased buoyancy, thus effecting flotation. Chemical conditioning is often used to increase the effectiveness of the dissolved air flotation process. The most reliable and positive method of producing bubbles of the proper size is to dissolve air into water under pressure and to then reduce the pressure of the solution. As the pressure is reduced, the air comes out of solution in the form of microbubbles.
