FLOT-STAR™
DAF SYSTEM

FLOT-STARPLUS™

The main principle of anaerobic treatment is the usage of anaerobic biology, the biomass, to convert the organic degradable compounds (COD or BOD) into biogas in an oxygen absent environment. Typical conversion rates of the COD/BOD is between 70 – 95%. The biogas generated consists of mainly methane gas, carbon dioxide, and water vapor with trace amounts of hydrogen sulfide. There are numerous anaerobic technologies available at Ovivo dependent on the waste/wastewater that needs to be treated and digested. Those technologies range from conventional CSTR systems, to granular high rates systems, to anerobic flotation reactors.

FLOT-STARMAX™

Like the original Flot-Star™ system, the Flot-StarPLUS™ utilizes a DAF process to remove solids from water. Also like the original system, the Flot-StarPLUS works by producing a stream of micro-fine air bubbles that float solids to the surface, after which they are removed by a scraping mechanism. The Flot-StarPLUS additionally utilizes inclined plate packs as a component of the system.

Another DAF system configuration, the Flot-StarMAX™ follows the same design principles as the others. However as opposed to being an upgrade for air dissolution pumps, the Flot-StarMAX upgrades bubble generation when compared to systems that utilize colloidal gas aphrons.
