Tube settlers (lamella clarifiers)

Tube settlers, also called lamella clarifiers, are used to remove solids in the waste water treatment. Our tube settlers are single plastic profiles combined to tubes. This design multiplies the sedimentation area up to 15 times per square meter surface area and helps to improve sedimentation in water and waste water treatment plants. Different executions support a better process and cost reduction of the plant. 

Solids Removal

Sludge, sand and siltes in surface water, chemical precipitation and flocculation form solids which have to be removed. The most economic process to remove this pollution is parallel plate sedimentation. Multiple sedimentation planes within one tank reduce the size and cost of the tanks. 

Flexibility for all process requirements

Amitec lamella clarifier is the ideal product for this application. It can be adapted to process design requirements by variation of inclination, length of tubes and module sizes. The lamella sedimentation process can be most efficiently applied based on the unique features of Amitec tubesettlers. 

Support structure

The low weight Amitec tube settlers are supported by structures made of steel or by GRP. Our specially designed GRP support beams combine in the best way the need to give structural support with the need to minimize impact to flow and sludge discharge. 

Engineering support

Please use Amitec and Enexio Italy’s long experience and application know-how and ask for support in designing your clarifier or sedimentation tank.
