It efficiently removes suspended solids, oil and grease, metals as well as the suspended biological oxygen demand (BOD) and chemical oxygen demand (COD) from a waste stream. Removal rates in excess of 95% are common. Some installations report 99.9% FOG and TSS reduction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Westlake Environmental utilizes the latest design features and technologies to provide the best DAF on the market.&nbsp; We offer high-performance systems that range from 5 GPM to over 3,000 GPM in a single DAF unit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Westlake Environmental DAF systems are specifically designed utilizing inclined plate technology and can be used to treat waste streams in both primary and secondary applications.&nbsp; The inclined plate design allows for the utilization of effective surface area to significantly increase the hydraulic capacity of the DAF system.&nbsp; &nbsp;The DAF is compact in size relative to the amount of flow it can treat. Designed to handle both floating and settling solids effectively, the DAF utilizes a unique skimmer design that is reliable, robust and virtually maintenance free. The system is simple to use and requires little maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Contact Westlake Environmental for more information at 616-610-1450 or at sales@westlakeenv.com.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>GENERAL INFORMATION The Westlake Environmental Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) clarifier is a very versatile and effective tool for cleaning industrial wastewater.
