Clearwater Industries offers free process water testing.  We perform comprehensive jar testing using a wide array of flocculants and coagulants in order to isolate the top performing clarifying chemistry for any application.  We then provide a private video link that allows our clients to see the liquid/solid separation in real time.  With this information, our team can provide actionable information regarding chemistry dosing, settling velocity, and equipment sizing.

Precipitation, Softening, Heavy Metal Removal

Clearwater Industries has experience with precipitation of heavy metals. In this process, the pH of the water is adjusted to create an environment where dissolved solids are more likely to solidify to the point they can be settled. Once they are in this form, we can use our flocculation  and sedimentation processes to remove them from the water.
