Clarifiers are settling tanks built for continuous removal of solids. Clarifiers are generally used to remove solid particulates or suspended solids from liquid for clarification and (or) thickening. We use lamella settlers within our clarifiers, which greatly increases the clarifier capacity and enables a much greater flow to be treated in the same footprint as conventional clarification. Our design also ensures maximum efficiency in terms of upward flow velocities. The lamella settlers can be used in new builds and are also an excellent option for upgrading and increasing the flow through an existing plant. Our clarifiers can be designed in a wide range of sizes and configurations to suit the individual needs of each of our clients. The clarifier can be used as a standalone system, taking the full plant flow, with or without additional equipment such as sand filters, screens, etc.

Colloide designs and installs heat pump systems. The heat pump extracts the energy at the source temperature and then raises the temperature to a useable level. A heat exchanger is used to extract the heat from the circuit at this point, with the now cooled medium being returned to the source where it is reheating. Reversible heat pumps can also be used in cooling function which can be important in the summer months. The heat pump works as part of a closed loop, operating between the heat source and the building where it is to be used. Heat sources include air, water, ground and waste heat. The higher the temperature and larger the size of the source energy, the better it is for providing energy. Colloide designs its systems to maximise the return from the heat source. Our heat pumps include a control system. The control system will vary depending on the plant, but is always designed to give our customers full control, including the ability to monitor performance remotely.
