The GreyStone Water Clarifier eliminates the need to clean settling ponds. 

When dirty process water is pumped into the clarifier, clean water overflows
the top and goes back to the wash plant for reuse.

The underflow, or thickened mud, is then pumped to a remote site.

Standard Water Clarifier Features and Specifications

  • Nominal capacity of 600 to 3,200 gallons per minute.
  • Rectangular design pulls the solids along the floor to the discharge hopper.
  • Produces up to 35% underflow solids by volume.
  • Uses an ultrasonic density sensor to produce underflow solids.
  • Hydraulically operated knife-gate valves.

Standard Operation Method
Using stacks of closely spaced sloping plates at a 45 degree angle, the GreyStone water clarifier is designed to handle an influent containing a maximum of 8% solids by weight with the addition of flocculants. The clarifier cleans the water aggregate processing plant.  The sludge collecting at the bottom of the plates in the sludge hopper can be thickened to approximately 40% solids by weight, which can be pumped to pits or permanent disposal sites.  If sufficient fail is available, the sludge can be gravity flumed away.  A sensing device connected to discharge valves is provided for setting the density of the sludge desired up to 40% by weight.

WATER CLARIFIER MODEL 400
A sensing device is provided for setting the density of the sludge desired (up to 40% by weight), which triggers a discharge valve operated by a 1 HP hydraulic power pack. A collecting hopper for sludge with a 2 ½” pump and a 10 HP motor and drive.
