1
Selection Based on Influent Water Quality Characteristics
- Influent water quality directly determines equipment suitability, considering suspended solids concentration, particle size, pollutant type, and pH value.
- For high suspended solids concentrations, a high-efficiency dissolved air flotation (DAF) system is recommended to improve bubble-particle collision efficiency.
- For high proportions of oily pollutants, a dedicated skimming device is necessary to enhance separation.
- Prevent oil adhesion from affecting equipment operation by selecting appropriate separation technology.
2
Selection Based on Treatment Capacity and Effluent Requirements
- Treatment capacity should match actual peak demand with a 10-20% margin to prevent equipment overload.
- Effluent water quality standards directly influence process selection.
- For strict discharge standards, shallow air flotation or high-efficiency dissolved air flotation systems should be selected.
- These systems offer higher separation accuracy, effectively reducing suspended solids and COD content in effluent.
3
Selection Based on Process Compatibility
- Selection should align with the overall water treatment process flow, ensuring compatibility with pretreatment and subsequent advanced treatment units.
- If pre-screening and sedimentation tank treatment effects are good, conventional dissolved air flotation (DAF) systems can be selected.
- When used as the core treatment unit, prioritize equipment with high automation and stable operation.
- Reduce manual intervention and improve treatment continuity through automated control systems.
4
Consider Operating Costs and Maintenance Difficulty
- Operating costs include energy consumption, reagent consumption, and labor costs.
- Prioritize equipment with low energy consumption and low reagent dosage.
- Consider maintenance difficulty, selecting models with simple structures and fewer vulnerable parts.
- Reduce equipment inspection frequency and maintenance costs to extend service life and ensure long-term stable operation.
