Tips to ensure dissolved air flotation system success

Many industries must pretreat their process wastewater before discharging it to the local sewer system. Dissolved air flotation (DAF) systems are used to remove fats, oils, and grease (FOG), certain organics, suspended solids, and metals from process wastewater to meet sewer discharge permit requirements. These treatment systems are far more cost-effective than biological systems but…
