CrossFLOW Lamella separator features
- Highly effective plate pack surface area with a non clogging crossflow lamella plate configuration
- All stainless steel lamella pack construction for chemical resistance (all grades of stainless steel available)
- Design to promote laminar flow conditions to optimize performance
- Free standing design in steel construction or concrete for larger applications
- Standard 60-degree plate angle with standard 20 mm spacing. 10 mm and 40 mm options
- 60-degree sludge hopper able to prevent rat-holing and improve solids removal
The following video shows how the Hydroflux CrossFLOWTM lamella separator operates.
Stainless steel lamella plates can be spaced at 10 – 40 mm

“What is the difference between a lamella separator, inclined plate separator and clarifier”
The HD range of HyDAF dissolved air flotation systems are designed for industrial applications where high solids loads are usually experienced. We have standard sizes and configurations of flotation tanks but in each case, we match this with the most suitable model of dissolved air recycle system to suit the specific wastewater characteristics.

Lamella solids separation and media filtration
The CrossFLOW™ Solids Separator is just one process component in complete water or wastewater treatment plant and is usually supported by a range of ancillary process operations to condition the influent, handle the sludge generated, or provide further treatment or recycling. Hydroflux has the skills and expertise to conduct any design and construct project incorporating a Lamella Separator.
Hydroflux employs qualified civil, mechanical, chemical and electrical engineers plus a team of experienced project managers, site supervisors, commissioning engineers and service technicians based in offices throughout Australia providing a local presence throughout the duration of the project.
All projects are conducted under externally approved occupational health and safety, and environmental management systems.
Hydroflux design and construct complete wastewater treatment systems involving lamella separation technology.
Hydroflux is Australia’s first Water-tech company to achieve Climate Active certifications which means by engaging with Hydroflux you are supporting positive and verified action on climate change.
Construction of a turnkey wastewater treatment plant at a new food production facility in SA
The Utilities division provides the link to integrating the Hydroflux® businesses by providing a comprehensive support network for customers throughout New Zealand.
Hydroflux Utilities provides virtually any form of wastewater management programs including:
Chemical optimisation
Hydroflux has a comprehensive range of coagulants and flocculants suitable for conditioning wastewater or sludge. The most appropriate chemical program will be determined before commissioning based on experience, or test work if possible, and long-term cost-effective chemical supply contracts can be arranged.
Preventative maintenance and service
Our engineers and technicians will discuss service and maintenance programs with you during construction of the wastewater treatment plant so that you can be assured that the system will perform consistently from day 1. There are many types of programs available from routine preventative maintenance, periodic service and overhauls, to complete plant operation. Our technicians are available 24/7 to attend to unforeseen breakdowns.
