AI Technical Summary
Traditional vertical flow sedimentation tanks suffer from poor water distribution uniformity, easy clogging, and high energy consumption. Existing improvement solutions rely on external power and have complex structures and high maintenance costs.
The water distribution component is a non-powered one, which uses the kinetic energy of the incoming water to drive the spiral blade to rotate. The spiral blade converts the axial water flow into a tangential force. Combined with the design of the baffle plate, it achieves uniform water distribution and sedimentation. The water distribution component is driven to rotate by the kinetic energy of the incoming water, thus avoiding the need for external power.
It achieves uniform water flow distribution in the sedimentation zone, improves sedimentation efficiency, reduces energy consumption, lowers maintenance costs, and ensures good water distribution uniformity, avoiding local stagnation or short-circuiting.
