Treated slick water with the goal of removing suspended solids and selective dissolved metals.  Successfully removed both the solids and metals such that the water can be recused.

​

How the Process Works

​

• Wastewater (influent) is treated with polymer to create a flock representing combination of influent contaminants and polymer.

 

• Magnetite is added to combine with the flocked contaminants and polymers.

​​

• The resulting flock with magnetic properties is then separated from wastewater by magnetized discs.

 

• Collected waste combined with Magnetite is then sheared from the magnetic discs and discharged to the dewatering system.

​

• Magnetite is recovered with a magnetized, rotating drum and scrapped off for return to the influent tank.
