How Much TSS Can a DAF System Handle?

Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) is an effective solution for removing Total Suspended Solids (TSS) from wastewater. The capacity of a DAF system to handle TSS depends on several factors, including influent concentration, system design, and operational parameters.

Typically, a well-designed DAF system can efficiently remove TSS levels ranging from 30 mg/L to over 3,000 mg/L. In some industrial applications, such as food processing, slaughterhouses, and paper mills, TSS concentrations can be even higher. However, pre-treatment processes like screening or chemical coagulation may be necessary to enhance DAF efficiency when dealing with extremely high TSS loads.

The removal efficiency of a DAF unit generally exceeds 90%, making it a preferred choice for industries aiming to meet discharge regulations and improve water reuse. The flotation process works by introducing microbubbles that attach to suspended particles, causing them to rise to the surface, where they are easily skimmed off.

To determine the exact TSS handling capacity for your specific application, it is essential to evaluate the influent water quality and system design. If you are unsure about the right DAF unit for your needs, consulting with an expert can help optimize performance and ensure compliance with environmental standards.
