High-Efficiency Shallow Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) System

High Efficiency Shallow DAF system utilizes dissolved air flotation technology combined with a shallow tank design to enhance flotation efficiency.

 

By generating fine air bubbles that attach to suspended solids and oils, the system enables rapid flotation and effective separation under varying operating conditions.

 

 

Key Features

  • High-efficiency air dissolution and microbubble release system
  • Shallow tank structure with optimized hydraulic flow
  • Uniform air and water distribution for stable flotation
  • Effective sludge skimming and discharge mechanism
  • Suitable for high-SS and high-oil wastewater

 

 

Engineering Focus Scope of Supply

1. Optimized air-to-solids ratio for consistent flotation efficiency

2. Hydraulic design minimizing short-circuiting and dead zones

3. Mechanical design for continuous and stable operation

4. Flexible integration with chemical dosing and pretreatment units

1. High-efficiency shallow dissolved air flotation tank and structural frame

2. Air dissolution system and pressure release assembly

3. Sludge skimmer and scum discharge system

4. Influent distribution and effluent collection components

5. Electrical control interface and technical documentation

 

 

Shallow DAF System Operating In Industrial Wastewater Treatment Process

System Placement

• Installed after primary screening or equalization as a solid-liquid separation stage

• Can be positioned before filtration or membrane systems to reduce load

• Often integrated upstream of biological treatment to improve efficiency

 

Typical Applications

• Industrial wastewater pretreatment (food, dairy, textile, plating, etc.)

• Oil/water separation in refinery and petrochemical effluents

• High-load suspended solids removal for municipal plants

• Stormwater and runoff clarification

• Pre-treatment for membrane systems (UF/RO) and tertiary polishing

 

 

HSDAF System Process Overview

HSDAF Process Flow Diagram

Step 1 – Influent Distribution

Wastewater enters the flotation tank and is evenly distributed across the inlet zone.

Step 2 – Air Dissolution & Release

Pressurized water saturated with air is released, forming fine microbubbles.

Step 3 – Flotation Separation

Microbubbles attach to suspended solids and oils, lifting them to the surface.

Step 4 – Sludge Removal

Floated sludge is continuously skimmed and discharged for further handling.

Step 5 – Clarified Effluent Discharge

Clarified water exits the system for downstream treatment or discharge.
