DAF technology stands for Dissolved Air Flotation technology. It is a water treatment process that is used to remove suspended solids, oils, and other contaminants from wastewater. DAF technology is commonly used in industrial and municipal wastewater treatment plants.
The process involves injecting air into the wastewater under pressure, which causes tiny bubbles to form and attach to the suspended solids and oils. The bubbles then rise to the surface of the water, forming a layer of foam that can be skimmed off.
The components of a DAF system typically include a tank or basin for holding the wastewater, an air compressor or blower for generating the bubbles, a skimming mechanism for removing the foam layer, and various pumps, valves, and controls for managing the flow of water and air. Some systems may also include chemical dosing equipment for enhancing the flotation process.
