ABSTRACT:
A baffle system for use in a clarifier tank having a tank bottom, a periphery and a substantially vertical peripheral wall bounding the interior of the tank is formed by a plurality of individual and cooperatively-engageable baffles mounted on the peripheral tank wall. Each baffle includes a panel member that downwardly slopes from the peripheral tank wall toward the interior of the tank and the tank bottom and terminates at a lower ledge disposed in space relation above the tank bottom. A first lateral end of the panel member unitarily carries an end bracket securable to the peripheral wall for supporting the panel member in a cantilevered fashion. The plural baffles are disposed in end-to-end relation about the peripheral tank wall such that the second lateral end of the panel member of each baffle is secured to the end bracket of the next-adjacent baffle whereby each end bracket supports the panel members of each set of two immediately-adjacent baffles on the peripheral wall. The resulting baffle system provides a smoothly continuous, inwardly and downwardly sloping surface along which solids precipitated from the liquid-solid suspension contained in the clarifier tank are gravitationally-directed to the tank bottom.
