You just don’t think about flocculator maintenance too often as flocculators are proven pieces of equipment and seem to run day in and day out for years, even decades. Flocculators are, however, rotating equipment with moving parts both above and below the water...
One of the key components in the water treatment process, flocculation, is most effective when the functions of fluid motion, differential settling, and velocity gradient (during each stage of the process) work in harmony to achieve the ultimate goal: maximizing...
Paddle wheel floccutors are one of the most popular style of flocculators used in water treatment plants around the world. Flocculators are used to help with large size particles known as flocs have a higher density, and hence a higher settling rate. Both Impeller...
Simple bearings just don’t sound exciting. But don’t let the word “simple” fool you. There is a lot more to bearing technology than appears on the surface, and a poorly operating bearing can result in less than optimal performance, and even equipment...
Watch this JMS Presentation on “Types of Flocculators for Water Treatment Plants.” Josh Franks, P.E., Senior Application Engineer from JMS, talks about the current flocculator technologies, the pros and cons of each, and which technology...
Purchasing the right equipment from the right supplier is an important part of any project. It is generally a fine balance between going with the lowest cost supplier, or taking a look at a number of variables that contribute to the total Value Equation. When it comes...
Watch this JMS Presentation on the JMS Mega-WALL (Baffle System). Josh Franks, Senior Application Engineer of JMS, talks about what types of baffle walls are used in Water and Wastewater Treatment Plants and the best design considerations...
Watch this JMS Presentation on the JMS Mega-TROUGH (Trough System). Josh Franks, Senior Application Engineer of JMS, talks about what kinds of troughs are used in Water Treatment Plants and what are the best design considerations for...
Watch this JMS Presentation on the JMS Mega-BEARING (High Performance Bearing System). Kerry Dissinger, Vice President of JMS, discusses the Mega-BEARING, why JMS developed it, and the need it solves in the market. What is the JMS...
Inclined Plate Settlers are used in the sedimentation process of both water treatment and wastewater treatment plants. In this process there are two popular styles used, tube settlers and inclined plate settlers. Both of these styles use the same theory to accomplish...
