Vehicle Wash Water Treatment

Microstax

Compact coag / floc system

Microstax Features

The Pan America Environmental Microstax series is a family of coagulation/flocculation systems primarily for use with the Clarisep vehicle wash water treatment systems or other treatment systems. Microstax consists of a flocculation pipe stack, injection quills, chemical pumps and controls.

Microstax Benefits

• Increases Clarisep solids removal performance
• Flow rates from 5 to 500 GPM
• Construction:  PVC, 304/316 SS
• Less energy use than mixer tanks

Microstax Process Overview

The STAX designs are most commonly used wherever solids, oils, fuels, emulsion, metals precipitation, pH neutralization or other  pH reactions, reduction, oxidation and many other types of reactions are required in  for a  waste stream.

How a Microstax Works

The STAX Series flocculation systems are a pipe flocculator type of design that provides multiple-chemical reaction contact in a compact, small footprint design without moving parts, wearing components and no need for power. The STAX design uses water turbulence induced by a spiral piping network to mix chemical products into a waste stream.

The design eliminates the need for mixing tanks, mixers and electrical consumption. The process takes place under highly controlled, well-defined and optimized conditions.  No power requirements and no moving parts, which means minimal maintenance. Uniform mixing in the pipe cross-section promotes uniform flocculation. No mixing dead zones.
