Lamella Application Solutions

Models and applications suitable for every project. 5 different lamella applications are performed across 13 different models.

What is Lamella? What Does Tube Settler Do?

Lamella (Tube Settler) are inclined plate systems used in settling tanks of wastewater treatment plants. These systems increase treatment capacity 2-4 times by multiplying the settling surface area and save up to 70% of facility area.

As ARBIOL, we offer five different lamella solutions: frame type, block type, unit type, sheet type and chevron type. All our products are TSE and ISO 9001 certified.

Lamella Types

  • Frame Type: High Durability, Easy Assembly, Large-Scale Facilities.
  • Block Type: Compact Structure, Fast Installation, Medium-Scale Facilities.
  • Unit Type: Modular Design, Flexible Capacity.
  • Sheet Type: Economical Solution, Small-Scale Facilities.

Application Areas

  • Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants
  • Industrial Wastewater Treatment
  • Drinking Water Treatment Plants
  • Food and Beverage Industry
  • Mining and Metallurgy

Lamella Technology: Efficiency and Sustainability in Water Treatment

Growing population, industrialization, and climate change put serious pressure on clean water resources. Lamella systems stand out as a technology that provides high efficiency in water and wastewater treatment, offers space savings, and delivers economical solutions.

What is Lamella and How Does It Work?

A Lamella is a sedimentation system consisting of inclined plates placed parallel to each other. In this system, as water passes slowly between the plates, suspended solids (sediment, sludge, colloidal particles) settle out due to gravity. Thanks to the inclined design of the plates, the settled solids collect at the bottom while the clarified water exits from the top.

Also known as lamella clarifiers, these systems provide fast and effective sedimentation, especially in high-flow waters. They are manufactured in four different configurations: frame type, block type, unit type, and sheet type.

Application Areas of Lamella Systems

🏭 Wastewater Treatment

In the treatment of industrial and domestic wastewater, lamella systems are used particularly in the physical treatment stage. They are widely preferred for treating wastewater in chemical, food, textile, and mining sectors.

💧 Clean Water Treatment

In drinking water treatment plants, lamella settlers are used to remove turbidity from raw water. Clarification of water is achieved by settling suspended solids in river, lake, and reservoir waters.

🌧️ Stormwater Treatment

Lamella systems are used to remove pollutants carried by rainwater, especially in urban areas. Environmental pollution is prevented by settling sediment, oil, and other pollutants from surface run-off waters.

Advantages of Lamella Systems

High Efficiency

The plate structure increases sedimentation speed, treating more water in less time.

Space Savings

Requires significantly less land area compared to traditional sedimentation basins.

Low Operating Cost

Energy consumption is low, and maintenance requirements are minimal.

Modular Design

Can be expanded to match capacity increases and easily adapted to different flow rates.

Conclusion

Lamella technology is an eco-friendly and economical system that offers modern solutions in water and wastewater treatment. With various applications such as lamella clarifiers and settling units, it has a wide range of use from industry to municipalities.

With the growth of the world population and intensifying water stress, the importance of efficient treatment systems like lamella will continue to increase.
