Monroe Environmental designs and

manufactures a wide range of water and
wastewater clarifiers for municipal and
industrial use. All of our equipment utilizes
conventional gravitational settling technology, and each system can be customized to
meet the specific needs of your application.
Weve been in the water and wastewater
treatment business for over 40 years, so
we know that all water streams are unique.
Monroe can provide jar-testing, analysis,
and ultimately recommend the correct
system to properly treat your specific water
or wastewater stream.

Clarifier Design
Laminar Flow PrincipleThe design
of Monroe Clarifiers creates laminar flow
conditions and allows gravitational forces
to separate the lighter and heavier
elements from the fluid.
Chemical TreatmentMonroe Clarifiers can
include a pre-treatment process as an integral
part of the system. This aids in the separation of
the dissolved solids, fine particles, and emulsified
oils that tend to remain suspended in water and
process fluids.
Separated Solids RemovalMonroe offers a
wide variety of sludge collection options for all
of its clarifier designs, carefully selected for each
application.
Oil RecoverySeparated oils, process fluids, and
other floating materials are guided to an accumulation area for easy removal and reclamation.
Construction MaterialsMonroes manufacturing flexibility includes fabricating with a variety of
materials:
Mild and stainless
Polypropylene
steel
FRP
High-density
PVC and CPVC
polyethylene (HDPE)
And many others

Clarifier Rebuilds
Rebuilding and replacing the internals of
a concrete or steel tank clarifier is a quick,
cost-effective solution versus constructing
an entirely new system. The clarifier tanks
often maintain a suitable operating condition while the skimmer arm, center well,
drive assembly, and sludge rakes corrode
and wear beyond an acceptable level. In
this case, a Monroe Environmental Clarifier
Rebuild is the perfect solution to restore the
clarifier to its peak operating performance
level, ensuring several decades of future use.

Parallel Plate Settlers

Plate Settlers can

greatly increase
the effective
surface area of
the sedimentation
tanks at potable
water treatment
facilities.

Monroe Environmental Parallel Plate Settlers

can greatly increase the effective surface area of
the existing clarifiers and sedimentation basins at
water treatment facilities. New tanks can be greatly
reduced in size when designed to include plate
settlers as well. This is because suspended solids
removal in gravity separators and clarifiers depends primarily on the surface area for settling and
the multiple parallel plates provide a large surface
area in a small space.
Monroe features a variety of design improvements over competitive plate settlers. These patent
pending designs provide a more equalized flow
through the plate sections and also incorporate
several features that make inspection, cleaning,
and maintenance much easier for plant operators.

The Monroe Parallel Plate Horizontal Clarifier

is one of the most versatile clarifiers available
on the market. Because the unique Monroe
parallel separator plate design effectively
separates both settleable solids and floating
materials, the Horizontal Clarifier can be used
in place of a circular clarifier for nearly any
application. This allows for significant cost savings
and reduced space requirements versus traditional
clarifiers. These advantages have made the
Horizontal Clarifier the best-selling clarifier offered
by Monroe over the past 40+ years.

Broad Range of Capabilities

Oil RecoverySeparated oils, process fluids, and
other floatable materials are guided to an accumulation area for easy removal and reclamation. An
adjustable overflow weir or a Monroe Oil Recovery
Unit can be included to remove these elements.
Separated Solids RemovalWhere the dirt
load is heavy, a drag conveyor or screw conveyor
may be included to provide continuous removal of
settled solids from the bottom of the clarifier.
Chemical TreatmentThe Monroe Horizontal
Clarifier can include a pretreatment process as an
integral part of the basic clarifier. This aids in the
separation of dissolved solids, very fine particles,
and emulsified oils that tend to remain suspended
in water or process fluids. A chemical treatment
tank and/or flocculation chamber can be added to
allow pH control and mixing of emulsion breakers
and coagulants into the influent before the laminar
flow process.

construction for treating low pH plating wastewater

Monroe Horizontal Clarifiers In the Monroe Horizontal

Clarifier separated particles are required to move only a few
inches before reaching an uninterrupted and protected
free fall or rise to collection areas.

Laminar Flow Principle

The unique design of the Monroe Horizontal
Clarifier creates laminar flow conditions and allows
gravitational forces to separate the lighter and
heavier elements from the fluid.
Normally, industrial laminar flow separation
requires settling areas beyond practical space
availability in typical manufacturing plants.
Monroes design engineers, however, have eliminated this problem through the unique capabilities
of the Horizontal Clarifier.

Air Strippers

An air stripper
removes
volatile gaseous
compounds
dissolved in a
contaminated
water stream
and transfers
them to an air
stream.

Monroe Environmental designs and manufactures high-efficiency air strippers for industrial and
municipal applications. An air stripper removes
volatile gaseous compounds dissolved in a
contaminated water stream and transfers them to
an air stream. Clean water from the Monroe stripper
may then be sent to a sump or drain as required.
We also manufacture Dry Adsorbers and Packed
Bed Scrubbers that can efficiently remove the
pollutants transferred to the exhaust air stream by
the Air Stripper if necessary.

Ideally Suited For

Water treatment plant removal of VOCs and

odors from potable water
Removal of many Volatile Organic Compounds
(VOCs) and other compounds with high vapor
pressure and low aqueous solubility including:

Benzene, toluene, and xylenes (BTX)

Ethylbenzene

Tetrachloroethylene (PCE)

Trichloroethylene (TCE)

Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE)

Ethylenes

Ammonia
Removal of groundwater contaminants from
petroleum fuel leakage

Packed Tower Air Stripper

The Monroe Environmental Packed Tower Air
Stripper typically uses a counter-flow design with
a cylindrical tower containing a specially designed
packing media that provides a large surface area
for air/water contact. Contaminated water flows
down through the packing while air flows upward.
VOCs or other contaminants are transferred from
the contaminated water stream to the air stream,
which then flows out through the top of the tower.
Clean water flows out at the bottom of the tower.

Larger flow rates of contaminated liquid and

Oil Recovery Unit

The Monroe Oil Recovery Unit is heavily constructed for industrial applications and consists of
an endless belt, an electric motor drive unit, and
a complete enclosure. The belt is suspended from
a specially designed driven pulley, with the lower
portion immersed in an oil supporting liquid.
As the belt descends into the liquid, the floating
oil adheres to both sides of the belt. Self-adjusting
wipers mounted in a staggered position wipe the
oil from the belt. The recovered oil drains into a
trough for deposit into a storage tank or containers.
The Monroe Oil Recovery Unit operates unattended in any area of tranquil oil accumulation. It
will continuously recover floating oil in a condition
that permits disposal or reclaiming for other
industrial purposes.

Superior belt type

Many different industries can prevent water

pollution by recovering oily waste with a Monroe
Oil Recovery Unit. Even the lightest oils from food
processing can be easily removed.

City of Detroit Saves Millions of Dollars

on WWTP Upgrades

Project: Replacement of (4) 250 ft. Diameter Primary Clarifiers

Existing 250 ft. diameter clarifiers help treat an average of 707 million gallons per day at the Detroit WWTP, with capacity
to treat over 1 billion gallons per day during peak flows

Challenge

Solution

The City of Detroit WWTP needed to upgrade

(4) of its 250 ft. primary clarifiers. The plant
decided to replace the internal components with
a combination of mild, coated steel and noncorrosive stainless steel members. The project
included converting the sludge rakes to higher
efficiency spiral scrapers and rehabilitating existing drive units, as well as replacing influent wells,
column supports, weirs, baffles, and launders.
Due to the size of the clarifiers and the amount
of steel involved, the budget estimate for the
clarifier components and accompanying work
was roughly $9,000,000.

Monroe was the successful low-bidder and

was awarded the project. The city saved several
millions of dollars on the total price of the clarifier
equipment, with Monroes contract totaling
approximately $5,000,000. Engineering submittals including new spiral scraper rake designs,
structural analysis, and related drawings were
approved in the 3rd quarter of 2011 and the
fabrication of the equipment began shortly thereafter. The project is scheduled to be completed
in 2013.
