Our municipal Dissolved Air Floatation (DAF) units are designed to work with municipal wastewater treatment systems. Enhance your treatment system using dissolved air flotation to thicken waste-activated sludge (WAS) prior to anaerobic digestors or remove algae and phosphorus (TP) using a high-rate DAF. Algae & Phosphorus Removal Typically, municipalities deal with algae blooms and phosphorus separately. A FRC high-rate Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) system can mitigate the negative impact of algae blooms by effectively removing algae and the associated phosphorus at the same time. These solids can be chemically precipitated out of the wastewater using a coagulant and then agglomerated with a flocculant, which can be done in a Plug Flow Reactor (PFR). A FRC DAF is then used to remove the solids. Total phosphorus removal of up to 99% is possible with this metal-salt precipitation method. System Solution System Solution System Solution WAS Thickening Biological treatment systems with a secondary clarifier produce sludge with a dry solids range of 0.5–1.0%. With so much of the sludge being made up of water, proper thickening mechanisms should be implemented to reduce the volume of sludge sent to an anaerobic digestor or reduce the size of dewatering equipment and solids disposal costs. Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) systems can thicken aerobic and anaerobic sludge to 4-10% solids. In this state, the sludge is better prepared for digestion and dewatering.

FRC Systems provides wastewater treatment solutions across multiple industries, including: Oil & Gas – Handling produced water, frac flowback, and oily wastewater. Poultry Processing – Managing high-fat and protein-laden wastewater. Meat & Seafood Processing – Treating organic-rich effluents with high BOD and TSS. Municipal Water Treatment – Supporting wastewater clarification and sludge removal. General Manufacturing – Custom solutions for diverse industrial wastewater challenges. What technologies does FRC Systems offer? Our solutions include: Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) Systems – For efficient solids and oil removal. Chemical Treatment Systems – Coagulation, flocculation, and pH adjustment. Sludge Dewatering Solutions – Reducing waste volume and disposal costs. Filtration & Screening – For pre-treatment and solid separation. What is Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF)? Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) is a wastewater treatment process that is highly effective in the removal of suspended solids (TSS), fats/oils & grease (FOG), biological oxygen demand (BOD) and other contaminants from water. It is particularly effective in situations where conventional sedimentation methods are less efficient. Here’s a breakdown of what DAF is and its primary uses: Air Dissolution: In DAF, air is dissolved into water under pressure in a specialized tank, saturation tube or pump. Pressure Release: When this pressurized water is injected into the flotation vessel, the pressure drops which releases the dissolved air as tiny microbubbles. Flotation Mechanism: These microbubbles attach to suspended particles and contaminants, causing them to rise to the surface. Skimming: The accumulated material (sludge or float) at the surface is skimmed off, while the clarified water is collected from below. What Are Some Uses of DAF? Dissolved Air Flotation, or DAF, is used in a variety of applications, including: Industrial Water Treatment: In industries such as food and beverage, oil and gas, and pulp and paper, to treat process water and wastewater. Municipal Wastewater Treatment: To remove solids, algae, phosphorus and other contaminants before further treatment or discharge. Sludge Thickening: DAF is used thicken biological sludge, reducing the overall sludge volume reducing transportation, handling and disposal costs. Drinking Water Purification: To remove algae, particulates, and other contaminants from source water. Pre-treatment: As a pre-treatment step for more advanced treatment processes, enhancing overall efficiency. Stormwater Management: To treat runoff and reduce pollutants before discharge. Does FRC Provide Rentals or Pilots? With the largest Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) rental fleet in the US and equipment ranging from 10–3,000 gpm, we can tailor a solution to your needs. All FRC rental equipment is available for short-term and long-term rental agreements as well as pilot testing and long-term lease agreements. FRC rental systems and stand-alone equipment are installed in a “plug-and-play” configuration for ease of installation and start-up. Once in place on-site, the unit can be operational within a matter of hours. What is a Flocculator? A Flocculator from FRC Systems is designed to provide the necessary mixing action and retention time to chemically treat wastewater. Here’s how it works: Coagulation: Coagulants are added to the wastewater to break emulsions and form micro-flocs. Flocculation: Flocculants are then added to agglomerate these micro-flocs into larger, more robust macro-flocs. Mixing: Mixing: The flocculator ensures proper mixing energy required by the chemicals and maintains the integrity of the flocs, which is crucial for effective separation in the subsequent Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) process. FRC Systems offers both Plug-Flow Reactors (PFR) and Continuous-Stirred Tank Reactors (CSTR) as flocculators, each designed to optimize the chemical treatment process. What is the difference between the PCL, PCCS and PWL? The main differences between PWL, PCL, and PCCS Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) systems from FRC Systems lie in their design and application: PWL (Open-Tank DAF System): Design: Open tank, low-built separators with side walls typically 8 to 10.5 feet tall. Application: Better suited for high solids loading rates. The skimmer assembly rotates against the hydraulic flow, shortening sludge skimming distance and eliminating solids carry-over. PCL (High-Rate DAF System): Design: Features corrugated plate packs that increase the effective separation area, allowing for a smaller footprint. Application: Ideal for high hydraulic loads with lower solids loading rates. The plate packs help maintain laminar flow and increase effective separation area which increases overall system performance. PCCS (High-Rate DAF System): Design: Similar to PCL, the PCCS features a high-rate design and corrugated plate packs. However, the PCCS is specifically designed to fit within a shipping container, making it easily transportable. Ideal for temporary or mobile wastewater treatment needs, such as remote locations or construction sites. Application: Efficient for removing Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Fats, Oils, and Grease (FOG), and other pollutants from wastewater. Each system is tailored to specific wastewater treatment needs, with PWL being more suitable for higher solids content and PCL/PCCS for higher hydraulic loads. If you have a specific application in mind, I can help you determine which system might be the best fit! Is FRC a part of Sulzer?

An international energy company that is also one of the biggest Oil & Gas producers in the US, has a site in the Middle East where water is scarce. All Projects FRC Systems » Projects Produced & Flowback Water System Solution Oil & Gas Solutions for Wastewater Treatment & Management Previous Project Next Project FRC Components Flocculator, High-Rate DAF Project Description An international energy company that is also one of the biggest Oil & Gas producers in the US, has a site in the Middle East where water is scarce. The FRC solution of a Dissolved Nitrogen Flotation (DNF) and flocculator was designed which allows the client to re-use the treated effluent. Nitrogen was chosen instead of air to keep the oxygen limit below 1 ppb due to the long pipelines. The DNF and flocculator were constructed of stainless steel 316 wetted materials, and the system including the auxiliary support equipment were rated for a class 1, div 2 area classification. The FRC Solution Flocculator – Chemicals (coagulant and flocculant) were dosed to precipitate the oily solids High-Rate DAF – Float any free oils, precipitated oil emulsifications and colloidal solids yielding clean effluent water for water re-injection Parameter Effluent Req.

One of North America’s leading consumer products manufacturers of branded and private label household, pool, and auto care products needed an emergency wastewater treatment solution. All Projects FRC Systems » Projects Health & Beauty Skidded Solution General Manufacturing Solutions for Wastewater Treatment & Management Previous Project Next Project FRC Components Flocculator, Open-Style DAF, Sludge Dewatering Project Description One of North America’s leading consumer products manufacturers of branded and private label household, pool, and auto care products needed an emergency wastewater treatment solution. Because of our sizable rental fleet, FRC was able to respond quickly with a rental DAF and belt press rated for the full capacity. The systems were used as a proof of concept to confirm adequate removal of Mixed Liquor Suspended Solids (MLSS) and determine cost savings on sludge dewatering. Each of the DAF, Belt Press, Flocculator, and Chemical Dosing are completely pre-piped and pre-wired on stainless steel 304 skids. The FRC design also provided additional extra cost savings by using the DAF effluent water as the wash water for the belt press. Due to excellent performance during the pilot trial, both systems were purchased as a permanent solution. The FRC Solution Flocculator Skid – Chemicals dosed to precipitate the solids, includes pH transmitter Chemical Dosing Skid – Includes all chemical dosing pumps (coagulant, acid, caustic, polymer) and an E-Panel that interacts with the DAF Main E-Panel via an ethernet cable. Open-Style DAF Skid – Floats the agglomerated solids, yielding clean effluent water. The resulting effluent was used as the wash water for the Belt Press. An E-Panel (includeing PLC & HMI), duty/standby recycle pumps, and AOD sludge pump were pre-installed on this skid. Belt Filter Press Skid – Increase dry solids content of the DAF sludge, reducing hauling costs. The sludge feed pump, polymer dosing system, wash water pump and bag filter, and E-Panel (includes PLC & HMI) to control the belt press system.
