Screening is often a step overlooked in many designs but can improve the reliability of the downstream equipment and minimise the load on the plant.
Aerofloat is a strong advocate for screening of industrial wastewater, especially given the variations in flowrate and concentration often seen. Simple screening mechanisms for any wastewater treatment will improve the overall performance and reliability of the plant.
An upfront screen does not need to be a complex step. Aerofloat has a range of products and partners at its disposal and will chose a fit-for-purpose option for the needs at hand.
Contact Aerofloat today to discuss adding screening to your existing facility or to a new wastewater treatment plant.

Rotary Screen
The rotary screen is very effective at removing screenings greater than 1mm in diameter and works well as a pre-treatment step for DAFs and biological processes. Rotary screens are commonly used for industrial wastewater, particularly in the food processing industry.
Contact Aerofloat today to discuss your pre-screening needs.
Inline Screens
Inline screens are typically used to remove fine solids in treated effluent, in potable water or as pre-screening for membrane filtration systems (such as microfiltration, ultrafiltration or reverse osmosis). Inline screens can be used to remove solids down to 50 microns.
Contact Aerofloat today to discuss which screening mechanism is best for your wastewater treatment.
Sieve Bend
A sieve bend is another option for industrial wastewater screening. It is typically a lower cost than rotating screens, robust and simple to install. A sieve bend does require more manual cleaning than a rotating screen but provides an effective alternative if required.
Contact Aerofloat today to review all your screening options.
Pressure Screens
Pressure screens are often described as a larger version of the inline screens. These are normally used when the wastewater may contain occasional larger solid particles. Pressure screens are often used as pre-treatment to a DAF or biological system.
Aerofloat is happy to discuss the listed screening options and more.
