Swirl-Flo® Process
Maintenance
Maintenance requirements are site-specific
as there are many possible variations of the Swirl-Flo® Process.
For example, the Swirl-Flo® Process can consist of
;
- A single Swirl-Flo® Separator in which both the
inflow and underflow are gravitated.
- A dual vessel installation in which the main Swirl-Flo® Separator
is preceded by a smaller hydrodynamic separator which is
used to inject chemicals and to provide contact time.
For larger units, mechanical scrapers are sometimes used at
the base of the main separator vessel. This is dependant upon
the size of the unit in question and the range of inflow rates
designed to be encountered.
Testing can be utilised to assess performance on sites where chemicals are to
be added to enhance removal rates. |
