Dissolved air flotation daf is a water treatment process that clarifies wastewaters or other waters by the removal of suspended matter such as oil or solids.
The released air forms tiny bubbles which adhere to the suspended matter.
The removal is achieved by dissolving air in the water or wastewater under pressure and then releasing the air at atmospheric pressure in a flotation tank basin.
The liquid level in the pressure tank is controlled by level control that vents all undissolved air large bubbles to prevent their entering the daf separation chamber.
Daf dissolves air in pressurized water then releases it at atmospheric pressure.
