Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) Systems
Dissolved air flotation (DAF) is a clarification process that utilises air to remove suspended fine matter from the surface of treated water.

Raptor DAF Systems
Typically used in food manufacturing such as dairy and meat processing, Dissolved Air Filtration (DAF) units process waste water by removing fine suspended particles and matter. Air is dissolved in the waste water under pressure then released at standard atmospheric pressure. Tiny bubbles adhere to matter such as oil and grease causing it to float to the surface of the water where it can be removed.
Raptor Engineering has developed a range of DAFs that meet the most demanding water treatment requirements. Whatever your flow rate we are sure to have a solution that’s right for you.
Key features
- Designed to separate fine particles from waste water
- Fully Accredited
- Delivery and installation across the UK and Ireland
