What we need to size a system, how the three platforms compare, and the technical material available on request.
Enquiry checklist
Send as much of this as you have. Items marked essential are the ones we cannot size a system without; the rest sharpen the answer.
| Design parameter | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Application — essential | Municipal, drinking water, industrial, stormwater, reuse |
| Design flow — essential | Average and peak, m³/h or MGD, and how often peak occurs |
| Feed water analysis — essential | TSS, turbidity, and the parameters relevant to the duty: BOD, COD, total phosphorus, metals, hardness, silica, alkalinity, pH, temperature |
| Feed variability — essential | Seasonal or process range, not just the average |
| Treatment objective — essential | Consent, reuse standard or downstream feed specification |
| Operating pattern | Continuous, intermittent, seasonal, storm-triggered; expected hours per year |
| Site constraints | Available area and headroom, indoor or outdoor, climate, seismic |
| Existing assets | Tanks that could be reused, with drawings and dimensions |
| Existing chemicals | What is already dosed on site and where it is stored |
| Sludge route | Existing thickening and dewatering equipment and its spare capacity |
| Utilities | Power supply, instrument air, service water |
| Standards | Applicable design codes, materials standards and approvals |
| Programme | Required delivery date and any shutdown window |
A treatable sample is more useful than any analysis for anything unusual. If you can send one, we will jar test it.

Rise rate is given in m/h on the projected settling area. 1 m/h = 0.41 gpm/ft²; 40 m/h ≈ 16 gpm/ft²; 120 m/h ≈ 49 gpm/ft². Flow: 1 MGD ≈ 158 m³/h ≈ 3,785 m³/d. Where a figure matters to a decision, we state it in both systems in the offer.
Every range on this site describes the process type generically, drawn from established engineering practice for these separation processes. They are for orientation during option selection. Guaranteed performance for a specific plant is established from raw water characterisation, jar or pilot testing and the agreed design basis, and is stated in the contract.
