SCAFF Technology
SCAFF technology is also known as SCAF/DAF®. This stands for SCADA Air Flotation and is a system for the removal of fats, oils, greases, COD, BOD, and suspended solids from industrial and municipal effluent. Air induction technology lies at the heart of the system. SCAF® pre-treatment alone often suffices to meet regulatory requirements for discharge to the public sewage system. In other cases, it reduces the total organic loading, thereby expanding the treatment capacity of biological plant. SCAF® is also frequently used for final ‘polishing’ of effluent before discharge.
The principal benefits of the SCAF® system:
- More effective pre-treatment
- Lower operating costs in power and maintenance
- No blocking of pump valves or air nozzles
- Proven to be more reliable than traditional systems
- Handles a wide range of loadings
