DAF (Dissolved Air Flotation)

Headworks dissolved air flotation (DAF) equipment design results from years of operational experience and product development, delivering highly efficient solids separation technology optimized for wastewater treatment by Moving Bed Bioreactors (MBBR).

Unique in the industry, Headworks  DAF equipment achieves high performance suspended solids and oil & grease removal within a small footprint , using only a small amount of polymer. The reduction of chemical consumption resulting from Headworks  DAF design optimization greatly reduces operational costs; as a result of this and other optimized processes, Headworks Bio DAF offers the lowest lifecycle cost solution for advanced wastewater treatment for challenging operations.

Headworks DAF can be utilized to remove suspended solids (TSS) and oil & grease as a primary treatment step ahead of MBBR. In secondary treatment applications following MBBR, the Headworks  DAF equipment is used to remove total suspended solids (TSS) generated in the biological process and particulate matter not removed during primary solids removal.
