The Lamella settlement tanks, along with other products offered by ATAC, find extensive applications in wastewater treatment processes. They can be used as primary settlement tanks or humus settlement tanks, depending on the specific treatment requirements. The Lamella units seamlessly integrate with ATAC's range of Submerged Aerated Filter (SAF) plants, further enhancing the overall treatment performance.
For applications requiring higher treatment capacities, the Lamella Unit can be installed as a multiple unit. It can be installed in parallel mode, fed from a bespoke hydraulic weir splitter chamber provided by ATAC. We are currently supplying 3 units in the parallel mode and could do more if required. This configuration allows for increased treatment efficiency and enhanced flexibility in handling varying flow rates and solids loads. The multiple unit installation is particularly beneficial in large-scale wastewater treatment plants or industrial processes with high effluent volumes.
The incorporation of Lamella settlement tanks in wastewater treatment processes offers several benefits. Firstly, the Lamella media's unique design and arrangement maximise the available surface area, allowing for efficient solid-liquid separation. This results in improved effluent quality and reduced suspended solids in the treated water. Additionally, the automated desludging system ensures regular removal of settled solids, maintaining the unit's operational efficiency. The external access platform facilitates routine cleaning by hosing, ensuring easy maintenance and prolonging the unit's lifespan.
