SuperPulsator® Clarifier
The Superpulsator® is a high-rate sludge blanket clarifier combining inclined plate settling, pulsing sludge blanket and solids contact to achieve maximum efficiency.
The SUPERPULSATOR® Clarifier combines basic chemical principles and proven clarification technology in a high-rate, solids contact clarifier that offers maximum efficiency. The unique design combines flocculation and clarification functions in one basin for optimal use of space. Vacuum generated flow pulsations create a homogeneous sludge blanket that results in excellent effluent quality at minimal operating costs.
