Baycor’s unique Air Floatation technology introduces thousands of micro air bubbles into the influent quickly sequestering oils, greases, and other impurities causing them to rise to the top of the tank. The floating particulate matter is then skimmed off and diverted for additional processing and remediation. Sand, grit, heavier sediments and debris sink to the bottom of the tank where it is extracted via a series of screw augers to a Baycor MDS screen, or other device, for additional treatment.
Unlike most other air floatation systems, the Baycor BAF utilizes ambient air rather than costly gas and compressed air injection. This novel approach substantially reduces ongoing operational costs, is easier to maintain, and requires a significantly smaller footprint.
