Conditioning Zone: Optimized thickening begins with the proper conditioning of the slurry. Each Aquabelt is equipped with a proprietary variable orifice in-line polymer mixer that combines polymer and slurry instantly to facilitate rapid flocculation. In addition, Aquabelt technology keeps polymer usage to a minimum, dramatically reducing operational cost - guaranteed. 2. Advanced Flocculation Zone: This zone provides a reduced turbulence interval prior to the introduction of the slurry to the Gravity Thickening Zone. This allows additional flocculation attraction-dynamics to occur, which optimizzes polymer effectiveness. 3. Gravity Thickening Zone: This zone effectively separates filterable liquids from the process solids and dramatically reduces the volume of the retained slurry. Rapid drainage is encouraged with the use of proprietary chicanes and geometrically optimized wiper bars. 4. Extended Thickening Zone: The Aquabelt is the only thickening system with an infinitely controllable Extened Thickening Zone. By employing the patented Aquabelt ramping device, detention times and turbulence levels can be controlled while operating to deliver specific solids-to-liquid ratios in the effluent. This provides process flexibility well beyond all other thickening options available today.
