A steel mill needed a temporary solution to continue treating wastewater while their existing inclined plate clarifier was being rebuilt. Monroe Environmental furnished a pair of X-Flo Mobile Clarifiers™ for the bypass until the rebuild was complete.

The X-Flo Mobile Clarifier™, with its modular design and ability to run multiple units in parallel, treated the full flow in a limited footprint right outside the building where the existing equipment was housed.

This project required coordination of services from the owner’s engineer, chemical provider, equipment provider, and installing contractor. Monroe’s Applications team made themselves available at the site in the early hours of the morning and throughout the day to ensure start-up was successful.

The site executed the rehabilitation of the existing equipment in a tight time window without sacrificing treatment time/production. The chemical provider was able to use the same chemistry as the permanent treatment system and actually achieved a higher level of clarity than the permanent clarifiers!

The X-Flo Mobile Clarifier is a plug and play solution for immediate treatment that often out-performs the process it’s bypassing. It gives engineers and end users peace of mind knowing they can have a tried-and-true treatment system at the snap of their fingers.
