AJM manufacture a large range of industrial clarifiers. Clarifiers are ideal for many applications where the specific gravity of the particles to be removed (with or without flocculation) is reasonably high.

Clarifiers can be constructed in stainless steel, mild steel concrete, or a combination of both, and all engineering is carried out using the latest AutoCAD software.

Applications for clarifiers include lime softening, precipitation of iron and magnesium (in the treatment of groundwater for example) and turbidity removal in both ground water and surface water treatment plus a variety of other industrial projects.

AJM Clarifiers are designed specifically for each application. Basic designs involve the wastewater being pumped into a central stilling well where is generally flocculated by the addition of a coagulant and or polymer. The clarified water overflows a circumferential weir whilst the solids settle into a simple 60 degree angle base cone.

Larger designs are shallower due to the concentric rake which continuously forces settled solids into a central well (rather than having a steep angles base) and can incorporate features such as recirculation of settled solids from the bottom particularly useful in low solids applications to provide enhanced flocculation and settlement properties.
