Ballasted Clarification

Simple, Reliable, and Proven

Ballasted clarification uses magnetite - fully inert iron ore particles - to ballast biological floc or conventional chemical floc, enhance settling rates and increase the performance of wastewater and water treatment facilities, while substantially reducing costs to upgrade process performance.

The BioMag® System is applied to activated sludge systems – providing up to 300 present more treatment capacity in existing tankage delivering faster and more reliable clarification than alternative systems.

The CoMag® System settles floc up to 30 times faster than conventional treatment enabling plants to increase capacity and clarifier performance. It can reduce total phosphorus down to 0.05 mg/L and can achieve UV transmittance greater than 75% when integrated into any type of coagulation/flocculation process or clarifier.

Many of the applications for Ballasted Clarification are custom designed for specific applications with part of a retrofit solution for an existing plant to expand capacity and/or improve effluent quality.

The Awful Truth

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged […]

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable.
