Matec produces purification plants for many different industries, for a perfect clarification of wastewater.

Decanters are available in two versions:

Vertical decanters:
Based on the principle of static decantation and the natural precipitation of suspended solid particles, they speed up the clarification process through perfectly-sized silos, with a thrust cone and a water column which presses the sludge, and the use of an appropriate polyelectrolyte (flocculant). Matec offers the quickest clarification process for any type of wastewater.

Horizontal decanters (scraper bridge):
Ideal for large water flows, they have a limited height and are provided with an upper sludge thickening system. They are operated by a scraper-blade bridge, which pushes the sludge, which settles down to the bottom and is pushed out. The sludge is fed out automatically and the out-feeding operation is adjusted to the bridge effort. The sludge thus condensed can be disposed of into artificial lakes, quickly filtered by the filter press system.
