Description
Clearflow Gel Block Flocculant 360
The Clearflow Gel Block Flocculant 360 is designed to enhance water quality by utilizing flow energy, particle size, shape, and density to effectively release or strip flocculant. This gel block is specifically formulated for coagulation and sinking, making it ideal for applications where suspended solids need to settle. It is highly effective at reducing total suspended solids (TSS), nutrients like phosphorus, and metals in the water. The Clearflow Gel Block 360 requires flow to activate the flocculant release, ensuring optimal performance when the water velocity is between 0.3m/s (1 foot/sec) and 1.5m/s (5 feet/sec). For flocculation, the Clearflow 494 Gel is recommended.
Features & Benefits
Coagulation and Sinking – Effectively causes coagulation and sinking of suspended particles, improving water clarity.
Improves Water Quality – Reduces total suspended solids (TSS), harmful nutrients, and metals, enhancing overall water quality.
Flow-Activated Flocculant Release – Releases flocculant when activated by water flow, eliminating the need for traditional dosing systems.
Environmentally Safe – Safe for aquatic life, ensuring no harm to ecosystems.
Cost-Effective and Energy Efficient – Requires no external energy source, reducing operational costs while delivering powerful results.
Easy to Use – Simple to deploy with minimal setup and maintenance required.

How It Works
The Clearflow Gel Flocculant blocks are designed to be suspended in flowing water, where they release flocculant through flow energy. As the water moves over the block, the flocculant is activated, helping to bind suspended solids and improve water clarity.
