Efficient Chemical Dosing Solutions for Fine Particle Separation in Wastewater Treatment

In wastewater treatment processes, the ability to effectively separate ultrafine particles is crucial for achieving regulatory discharge standards and protecting downstream equipment.  Chemical Dosing Unit plays a vital role in enhancing solid-liquid separation by enabling precise chemical conditioning of wastewater. When paired with a high-speed decanter centrifuge, the GN Chemical Dosing Unit allows for the removal of particles much smaller than 2–5 microns—something that traditional mechanical methods alone cannot achieve.

Compact and Reliable Chemical Dosing for Wastewater Applications

The GN Chemical Dosing Unit is an integral part of GN’s Dewatering System. This unit is designed to prepare, dissolve, and dose flocculants and other treatment chemicals to improve the efficiency of particle separation. With a compact footprint, corrosion-resistant materials, and low energy consumption, it provides both performance and convenience for a wide range of industrial applications.

GN offers two standard models to meet different chemical dosing needs:


1. GN Full Automatic Dry Powder Dosing Unit (PAM)

This model is engineered for precise and automatic preparation of dry powder flocculants. It features a three-compartment stainless steel cabinet that manages the entire preparation cycle: Preparation, Curing, and Storage.

Key Features:

  • Integrated design with stainless steel construction.

  • Fully automatic PLC control system.

  • High accuracy and consistent dosing performance.

  • Designed for safe and reliable operation with multiple safety valves and alarms.

  • All wetted parts are made of corrosion-resistant plastic or stainless steel.

  • Suitable for a variety of chemical forms including powders, granules, and fibrous additives.

Working Principle:

The system mixes the dry powder flocculant with water in stages:

  1. In the Stirring Dissolving Tank, the powder is thoroughly mixed with water.

  2. The solution then moves to the Curing Tank for additional blending and reaction time.

  3. Once ready, the final solution flows into the Storage Tank and is delivered to dosing points by precision dosing pumps.


2. GN Single Barrel Liquid Chemical Dosing Unit (PAC)

This system is designed for dosing liquid flocculants or coagulants. The dosing unit includes a mixing tank equipped with a stirrer and is available in either a PE barrel with a metal shell or a fully stainless-steel configuration.

Key Features:

  • Large capacity mixing tank with stable performance and low energy usage.

  • Compact design, small footprint, and easy installation.

  • Fully automated dosing with PLC-based control; remote operation is also available.

  • High dosing flow rate with easy maintenance access.

Working Principle:

Operators can either pre-configure the liquid chemical and pump it into the tank, or manually add dry powder chemicals and mix with water in the correct proportion. The solution is then continuously stirred to ensure uniformity before being dosed into the treatment process.


Containerized Chemical Dosing System for Harsh Environments

For demanding project sites or outdoor installations, GN offers containerized chemical dosing solutions. These systems integrate the dosing unit within a standard container that is weatherproof, easy to transport, and ready to operate. All inlet and outlet ports are pre-reserved for fast connection to external equipment, and the container provides a safe, sheltered environment for operators.


Broader Applications of GN Chemical Dosing Units

GN Chemical Dosing Units are versatile and can be used across industries for:

  • Water treatment: Adding coagulants, flocculants, disinfectants, acids, and alkalis.

  • Cooling systems: Dosing corrosion and scale inhibitors.

  • Chemical processing, printing, and dyeing: Dosing various liquid reagents and pH control agents.


Whether your project requires dry powder or liquid chemical dosing, GN offers customized solutions tailored to your flow rate, chemical type, and operating conditions. With proven reliability and efficiency, our Chemical Dosing Units enhance the performance of wastewater treatment systems, helping clients meet strict environmental standards.

With over 10 years of experience, we have earned a strong reputation for delivering high-performance equipment. One of our standout products is the GN 3 Phase Decanter Centrifuge, designed for efficient solid-liquid-liquid separation. Recently, we have successfully shipped this cutting-edge technology to a client in South America, offering them a reliable solution for their oily sludge treatment process.

Three-Phase Separation Solution for Oily Sludge Treatment

Our GN 3 Phase Decanter Centrifuge is the perfect solution for industries that require the separation of oil, water, and solids. It excels in separating these three phases, ensuring a clean and efficient output, whether it’s for oil recovery, wastewater treatment, or other industrial applications.

This 3 Phase Decanter Centrifuge operates based on the principle of sedimentation, where the solid particles and two immiscible liquid phases with different densities are separated under high centrifugal force. When the mixture enters the high-speed rotating drum, the material is subjected to centrifugal force, causing the heaviest particles (solids) to settle first, followed by the heavier liquid phase (water), and finally the lighter liquid phase (oil).

The machine’s unique design includes a driving system, decanter bowl, screw conveyor, cover box, skid, and VFD control panel, allowing it to operate continuously for 24 hours, ensuring seamless and efficient performance. The GN 3 Phase Decanter Centrifuge can handle feed materials with less than 10% solids and particle sizes of less than 2mm, making it suitable for a variety of industrial applications, including oil recovery from oily sludge.

Modular Design for Complete Oil Sludge Treatment

Our solution for oily sludge treatment is built around three key modules:

  1. Mud Conveying Module
    The mud conveying system ensures a smooth flow of materials to the decanter centrifuge. The equipment is designed to transport sludge efficiently, preparing it for the separation process. This system helps minimize material loss and optimizes overall processing time.

  2. Tank Cleaning and Sludge Settling Module (Slant Plate Clarifier)
    GN Separation’s Slant Plate Clarifiers play a key role in washing and settling oil tank sludge. This module helps separate the bulk of solids and water before the material is sent to the decanter centrifuge. By utilizing inclined plates, this system accelerates the settling process, improving the efficiency of the subsequent separation stages.

  3. Three-Phase Decanter Centrifuge Module
    The GN 3 Phase Decanter Centrifuge is the heart of the separation process. Its high-performance design ensures efficient separation of oil, water, and solids. This technology is crucial for industries that need to recover oil from sludge while separating water and solids for proper disposal or treatment.

Specifications of GN 3 Phase Decanter Centrifuge

Our GN 3 Phase Decanter Centrifuge is available in various models, with the following specifications:

  • Model Options: GNLWS-364, GNLWS-454, GNLWS-554
