# Shallow Air Flotation Unit

This shallow air flotation unit removes suspended solids from industrial wastewater and paper mill effluent using a dissolved air system and the zero velocity principle. Its shallow tank delivers high treatment efficiency in a small footprint. It is built in anti-corrosion carbon steel or 304 stainless steel for plants that need efficient SS removal or fiber recovery with limited space.

## FAQ

### What is the advantage of shallow air flotation over a conventional DAF tank?

Shallow flotation uses the zero velocity principle so particles rise in a shallow, still zone, giving high SS removal in a much smaller footprint.

### Which materials are available?

The unit can be built in carbon steel with anti-corrosion treatment or in 304 stainless steel.

### What capacity can you supply?

Capacity is configured per project to meet the client's flow. Send us your flow rate and SS concentration and we will size the unit and provide a quotation.
