4.Inclined Tube Forming Shapes
-Hexagonal Tubular
-Corrugated Sheet
II.Core Advantages
1.Physical Properties
-High toughness,anti-deformation,and crack resistance
-Extended service life(5-10 years),superior aging resistance compared to conventional PP fillers(3-5 years)
2.Treatment Efficiency
-Processing capacity:Inclined tube sedimentation tanks achieve 3-5 times the efficiency of horizontal flow sedimentation tanks and 2-3 times that of accelerator/pulse clarifiers.
-Reduced sludge volume with excellent settleability,lowering post-treatment workload.
3.Engineering Adaptability
-Compact footprint,suitable for both new projects and retrofitting existing tanks.
-Broad applicability across diverse scenarios.
III.Application Fields
1.Water Treatment Processes
-Sand removal at inlet structures
-Industrial and domestic water supply/drainage sedimentation
-Wastewater sedimentation,oil separation
2.Tailings concentration
-Biological Treatment(Primary use of straight tubes)
-Biological filters,high-load biological filters
-Tower biofilters,submerged biofilters(contact oxidation tanks)
-Microbial carriers for biological rotating discs
IV.Inclined Tube Sedimentation Characteristics
1.Hydraulic Properties
-Large wetted perimeter,small hydraulic radius
-Stable laminar flow regime,minimizing turbulent interference on particle settling
2.Economic Benefits
-Low capital and operational costs;retrofitting existing tanks significantly enhances cost-effectiveness.
