Hardcore Engineering specializes in designing and manufacturing high-quality flocculation tanks for water and wastewater treatment systems. With 12 years of experience in the industry, we pride ourselves on delivering innovative, reliable, and efficient solutions to meet your specific needs. Flocculation is the separation of a solution, commonly the removal of sediment from a fluid. The term is derived from floc, which means flakes of material; and when a solution has been flocculated, the sediment has formed into larger aggregated flakes, making them easier to see and remove. This process occurs naturally, or it can also be forced using flocculants and/or physical processes.
It is a common method of stormwater treatment, wastewater treatment, and in the purification of drinking water. One of the requirements for treated water leaving wastewater plants is the removal of suspended solids. Small solid particles affect the color of the water and carry impurities into our natural water sources like rivers and the ocean.
