Floating Baffle Curtain

IEC Floating Baffle Curtains help direct wastewater flow through ponds, lagoons, and tanks while reducing short-circuiting. Custom-designed using wastewater-compatible materials, these baffles can improve retention, settling, mixing, and treatment performance. Options include wastewater, water, floating, hydraulic, and clearwell baffles, with compatibility for IEC aerobic and anaerobic floating cover systems.

Floating Baffle Curtain for Wastewater Flow Control

The Floating Baffle Curtain System helps control water flow through wastewater treatment ponds, lagoons, and tanks. By directing flow along a defined path, the curtain helps prevent short-circuiting. As a result, facilities can improve retention time, settling time, and overall wastewater treatment performance.

Industrial & Environmental Concepts (IEC) custom designs each Floating Baffle Curtain to suit the specific application. IEC uses wastewater-compatible materials suitable for a wide range of municipal and industrial wastewater environments.

Improved Flow and Retention

Baffles help manage the movement of wastewater through a treatment system. Therefore, they can increase effective retention time and give suspended material more time to settle.

Additionally, better flow direction can improve mixing and increase food-to-mass contact within the treatment process. These benefits can support more effective wastewater treatment while reducing uncontrolled flow paths through ponds, lagoons, or tanks.

Key benefits include:

  • Improved retention time
  • Improved settling time
  • Controlled water flow
  • Reduced short-circuiting
  • Better mixing
  • Increased food-to-mass contact
  • Improved wastewater treatment performance

Custom Baffle Options

IEC provides several baffle configurations to suit different water and wastewater applications. Available types include:

  • Wastewater Baffles
  • Water Baffles
  • Floating Baffles
  • Hydraulic Baffles
  • Clearwell Baffles

Moreover, IEC baffles are compatible with the company’s floating cover systems. This includes both aerobic and anaerobic cover applications.

The Floating Baffle Curtain System can therefore provide a practical flow-control solution where treatment performance depends on improved hydraulic movement, retention, and settling.
