Introducing DAF Systems: A Comprehensive Solution for Wastewater Treatment
Dissolved air flotation (DAF) is a wastewater treatment process that uses air bubbles to separate suspended solids from water. DAF systems are effective in removing a wide range of contaminants, including oil, grease, and suspended solids.
How DAF Systems Work
DAF systems work by injecting air into the wastewater under pressure. The air dissolves into the water, and when the pressure is released, the air forms small bubbles that attach to the suspended solids. The bubbles rise to the surface, carrying the solids with them, forming a layer of scum that can be easily removed.
Benefits of DAF Systems
DAF systems offer several benefits over other wastewater treatment processes, including:
- High efficiency: DAF systems can remove up to 95% of suspended solids and oils from wastewater.
- Low energy consumption: DAF systems require less energy than other wastewater treatment processes.
- Small footprint: DAF systems can be installed in a small footprint, making them ideal for urban areas.
- Easy to operate and maintain: DAF systems are relatively simple to operate and maintain.
Applications of DAF Systems
DAF systems can be used in a variety of industries, including:
- Municipal wastewater treatment: DAF systems can be used to remove suspended solids, oil, and grease from municipal wastewater.
- Industrial wastewater treatment: DAF systems can be used to treat wastewater from a variety of industries, including food processing, metal finishing, and oil and gas.
- Oil and gas industry: DAF systems are commonly used to treat produced water from oil and gas production.
- Marine industry: DAF systems can be used to treat ballast water and bilge water from ships.

Varies types of DAF System
Dissolved air flotation (DAF) systems are classified based on the method used to introduce air into the wastewater. The most common types are:
- Submerged-tube aerator DAF systems: In this type of system, air is compressed and injected into a submerged tube, where it dissolves into the water. The water is then released into the flotation tank, where the dissolved air forms bubbles and rises to the surface, carrying the suspended solids with it.
- Surface aerator DAF systems: In this type of system, air is injected into the surface of the wastewater. The air dissolves into the water, and the water is then circulated through a series of baffles to create turbulence and increase the dissolution of air. The water is then released into the flotation tank, where the dissolved air forms bubbles and rises to the surface, carrying the suspended solids with it.
- Pressure DAF systems: In this type of system, air is compressed and injected into the wastewater under pressure. The water is then released into a flotation tank, where the pressure is reduced, causing the dissolved air to form bubbles and rise to the surface, carrying the suspended solids with it.
- Vacuum DAF systems: In this type of system, air is drawn into the wastewater through a vacuum. The air dissolves into the water, and the water is then released into a flotation tank, where the dissolved air forms bubbles and rises to the surface, carrying the suspended solids with it.
Each type of DAF system has its own advantages and disadvantages. The choice of DAF system depends on the specific needs of the application.
| Type | Classification |
|---|---|
| Submerged-tube aerator DAF systems | The most common type of DAF system. They are relatively simple to operate and maintain, and they are energy-efficient. |
| Surface aerator DAF systems | This DAF less common than submerged-tube aerator DAF systems. They are more complex to operate and maintain, but they can be more effective at removing suspended solids. |
| Pressure DAF systems | This DAF type used in applications where a high degree of solids removal is required. They are more complex and expensive to operate than other types of DAF systems. |
| Vacuum DAF systems | This DAF type used in applications where the wastewater contains a high concentration of suspended solids. They are more complex and expensive to operate than other types of DAF systems. |
