Improve Water Treatment Efficiency with Lamella Clarifiers
Lamella clarifiers enhance water treatment processes by increasing sedimentation efficiency, making them ideal for pre-treatment plants and various industries. Using inclined plates, these systems promote rapid solids settling, improving water quality and reducing sludge volumes. Lamella clarification enhances overall operational performance in primary treatment stages.
Our Lamella Clarifier Solutions
FILTEC Lamella Clarifiers

How Lamella Clarification Works
Lamella clarification uses inclined plates to create a large surface area for solids to settle. Water flows upward between the plates, allowing suspended particles to settle onto the plates. These particles then slide down for collection, improving clarification efficiency without requiring large tanks.
FAQs
How do lamella clarifiers improve performance in pre-treatment plants?
They enhance sedimentation efficiency, reducing the load on downstream filtration systems. This leads to improved water quality, reduced chemical usage, and more efficient overall treatment processes.
How effective are lamella clarifiers when silt levels are high?
Lamella clarifiers excel in handling high silt levels by increasing the settling surface area, promoting rapid particle separation, and preventing excessive sludge accumulation, which maintains consistent performance even in challenging conditions.
Are lamella clarifiers easy to maintain?
Yes, with minimal moving parts and integrated sludge removal, maintenance is straightforward and cost-effective.
Can lamella clarifiers handle variable flow rates?
Yes, FILTEC’s lamella clarifiers accommodate flows from 25-110m³/hr, providing flexibility for changing operational demands.
How do lamella clarifiers reduce space requirements?
The inclined plate design increases sedimentation area within a smaller footprint, reducing the need for large sedimentation tanks.
