PCCS compact DAF

The PCCS series is a compact dissolved air flotation (DAF) system for wastewater duties where space, logistics, or deployment speed are critical. Its container-ready design supports packaged pretreatment for remote, temporary, pilot, and small industrial installations, while delivering reliable removal of TSS and FOG.

How the PCCS series works
The PCCS series uses a compact flotation tank designed for packaged and fast deployment installations. The tank layout supports efficient separation performance within a small footprint.

Floated solids are removed by a motorized skimmer and discharged to a sludge hopper. Clarified water exits the tank and is routed to downstream treatment or discharge.

When influent quality requires it, the PCCS series can be combined with upstream flocculation to improve capture of fine solids and emulsified contaminants.

Applications and use cases

  • Packaged pretreatment systems for remote or temporary installations, including mobile wastewater treatment

  • Industrial wastewater treatment where space is constrained, including TSS and FOG removal

  • Pilot DAF unit for treatability trials and chemistry selection.

Benefits (commercial and operational)

  • 20-ft ISO container-ready footprint for easier logistics and rapid mobilization

  • Faster installation potential when supplied skid-mounted

  • Reliable separation performance in a compact format for TSS and FOG removal

  • Configurable instrumentation and controls for site integration and monitoring

  • Standard-component philosophy to simplify maintenance planning

Options and configuration

  • Upstream plug-flow pipe reactors for flocculation to improve capture of fine solids where required.

  • Dosing skids for coagulant, flocculant and pH correction

  • Configured access and installation options to simplify onsite integration

  • Materials selection aligned to wastewater chemistry and project requirements.

What makes the PCCS series suited to mobile or remote use?
The compact footprint is designed around transport and installation constraints, supporting rapid mobilization where permanent civils are not ideal or timelines are tight.

Can it be supplied as a packaged, skid-mounted unit?
Yes. The PCCS series is commonly configured with pre-integrated recycle, dosing interfaces and controls to reduce site installation time.

Is the PCCS only for temporary use?
No. While often selected for temporary or pilot duties, it can also serve permanent small-scale industrial wastewater pretreatment where space is limited.

Does the PCCS series integrate with flocculation?
Yes. Where influent quality requires it, the compact DAF system can be integrated with upstream flocculation to improve capture of fine solids and emulsified contaminants.
