ABSTRACT:
A clarifier basin in a wastewater treatment system includes a sludge collection manifold structure which allows individual visual inspection and monitoring of sludge flows from individual sludge removal tubes, representing different sludge collection zones in the basin. The width from front to back of each clarifier arm is maintained to a minimum by providing a baffle adjacent to the outflow of each sludge removal tube. This defines a separate sludge flow for each sludge removal tube, although the flows are integrated beyond the baffles in the common channel. The benefits of high velocity sludge flow, minimal arm width and individual monitoring and sampling outflow from each removal tube are maintained, while providing an arrangement which is structurally sound, minimal in weight and less costly than many previous clarifier systems.
