    Up to ten square feet of settling area becomes available for each square foot of physical area occupied by the unit. The compact design minimizes hydraulic disturbances caused by wind or temperature changes. As the liquid flows upward, the solids settle on the inclined, parallel plates and slide into the sludge hopper at the bottom.
