Hydroflux HyDAF HD100S Installation at Australian Country Choice
In a collaborative effort with Wiley, Hydroflux Industrial has accomplished a remarkable feat with the successful installation of the Hydroflux HyDAF HD100S Dissolved Air Flotation system at Australian Country Choice (ACC) in Cannon Hill, Brisbane. This innovative system marks a significant milestone in wastewater treatment, showcasing a blend of advanced technology and environmental consciousness.
Addressing Unique Challenges
The project presented unique challenges, primarily centred around treating the red stream from ACC’s processing plant. The treatment plant was meticulously designed to tackle this, incorporating tailored solutions to ensure optimal performance. One notable feature includes the installation of a balance tank and heat exchangers upstream of the Dissolved Air Flotation system. This strategic addition effectively cools the water to 36 degrees Celsius, maximizing the efficiency of the fat-removal process, crucial given the temperature sensitivity of the red stream.
Highly Efficient Treatment
The Hydroflux HyDAF HD100S Dissolved Air Flotation system boasts a twin dissolved air design, enabling an exceptionally high recycle rate and air-to-solids ratio. This results in an impressive over 90% removal of fats from the wastewater, all achieved without the need for additional chemicals. Furthermore, heavy solids that settle at the base of the DAF are efficiently discharged to the sludge tank, where they are seamlessly blended with waste-activated sludge from the secondary process, ensuring a comprehensive treatment approach.
Success and Future Prospects
Since its installation and commissioning in 2015, the Hydroflux HyDAF HD100S system has consistently delivered outstanding results, surpassing expectations in terms of efficiency and reliability. This success not only validates the efficacy of the system but also sets a benchmark for future projects within the industry. Looking ahead, ACC remains poised to build upon this success, leveraging innovative solutions to further enhance its sustainability initiatives and drive continued growth and excellence in wastewater treatment.
Conclusion
In conclusion, Hydroflux Industrial has yielded remarkable outcomes, with the installation of the Hydroflux HyDAF HD100S system at ACC representing a significant milestone in sustainable wastewater treatment. By addressing unique challenges with tailored solutions and embracing cutting-edge technology, ACC sets a new standard for environmental stewardship within the industry. As the demand for sustainable practices continues to grow, ACC’s commitment to innovation and sustainability positions it as a beacon of excellence in wastewater treatment, paving the way for a cleaner, greener future.
