NXG Series High-Efficiency Inclined Tube Concentrator The NXG Series High-Efficiency Inclined Tube Concentrator is an advanced solid-liquid separation device designed for rapid sedimentation and clarification in water and wastewater treatment applications. Utilizing the principle of shallow-depth sedimentation, this equipment significantly enhances separation efficiency while reducing footprint and operational costs. Design and Working Principle The concentrator features a modular structure with multiple inclined tubes or plates arranged at a specific angle (typically 60°). These tubes create a large effective settling area within a compact space. As influent enters the unit, suspended solids (SS) settle onto the inclined surfaces and slide downward due to gravity, while clarified water flows upward and exits the system. The high surface-area-to-volume ratio of the inclined tubes accelerates particle settling, making the process far more efficient than conventional sedimentation tanks. Key Features 1. High Efficiency – The inclined tube design increases the settling area by 5–10 times compared to traditional horizontal sedimentation, enabling faster treatment and higher throughput. 2. Compact Footprint – Its space-saving structure makes it ideal for retrofitting existing plants or deploying in areas with limited space. 3. Low Energy Consumption – The system operates with minimal energy input, relying primarily on gravity for separation. 4. Durable Construction – Made from corrosion-resistant materials such as PP (polypropylene), PVC, or stainless steel, ensuring long service life even in harsh environments. 5. Easy Maintenance – The modular design allows for simple cleaning and replacement of components without interrupting operations. Applications - Drinking Water Treatment – Removes turbidity, algae, and other suspended impurities. - Industrial Wastewater Treatment – Effective for mining, chemical, and food processing effluents. - Municipal Wastewater – Used in primary or secondary sedimentation to reduce sludge volume. - Stormwater Management – Clarifies runoff water before discharge or reuse. Advantages Over Conventional Systems - Faster Settling – Reduces hydraulic retention time, improving processing capacity. - Improved Effluent Quality – Achieves lower SS concentrations in the output. - Cost-Effective – Lower capital and operational expenses due to reduced tank size and energy use. Conclusion The NXG Series High-Efficiency Inclined Tube Concentrator is a reliable, high-performance solution for sedimentation challenges across various industries. Its innovative design, efficiency, and adaptability make it a preferred choice for modern water and wastewater treatment systems seeking sustainable and economical separation technology.
