Equalization tanks can be used to manage fluctuations in wastewater flow and contaminant concentration. Industrial production does not always operate at a constant rate, so wastewater characteristics can change throughout the day. Equalization helps create a more consistent feed for downstream treatment processes. Manufacturers may design tanks with mixers, pumps, level controls, and monitoring equipment to prevent solids from settling and maintain uniform conditions.
Coagulation and flocculation are widely used for removing suspended particles and certain dissolved contaminants. During coagulation, chemicals are added to destabilize small particles. Flocculation then encourages these particles to combine into larger formations that can be removed through sedimentation or flotation.
