Waste Water Reclamation Plant Three | Secondary Treatment

Clarifiers

The microorganisms biologically convert the dissolved solids in the wastewater to suspended solids which can settle out in the clarifier. At this point 95% of the solids and pollution have been removed when the water leaves the final clarifiers. We can clean the water in about 10 hours with this process.

We collect the bacteria used to clean the water in the bottom of the clarifier and pump it back to the aeration to consume more solids and destroy more disease.

These clarifiers are covered to prevent freezing in the winter and to reduce odor in the area.
