Dissolved Air Flotation Rental for Wastewater Treatment
ClearFox® manufactures and stocks dissolved air flotation rental systems for fast, reliable wastewater treatment. Our modular DAF rental units from 1 to 100 m³/h help remove suspended solids, oils, grease, fats, COD, heavy metals and other floatable pollutants from process water and wastewater.
Whether you need a short-term DAF rental, a DAF unit hire package during maintenance, or a longer-term DAF leasing solution for a plant upgrade, we supply flexible systems that can be integrated into existing treatment lines or installed as standalone temporary wastewater treatment units.
Flexible DAF Rental for Short-Term and Long-Term Projects
Industrial wastewater treatment demands can change quickly. Production increases, seasonal loads, shutdowns, tighter discharge limits and equipment failures can all create an urgent need for temporary additional treatment capacity. A mobile dissolved air flotation rental system gives you a fast and practical way to maintain operations and support compliance.
ClearFox® supplies mobile and modular DAF systems for a wide range of industries and wastewater types. Our rental solutions can be configured as compact standalone units or as part of a complete rental wastewater treatment plant with dosing, pH adjustment, sludge handling and downstream treatment stages.
When a DAF rental system is the right choice
| Situation | Why DAF rental helps |
| Plant maintenance or refurbishment | Keeps treatment running while permanent equipment is offline |
| Emergency breakdown or unexpected failure | Restores wastewater treatment capacity quickly |
| Seasonal production peaks | Adds temporary treatment capacity without long-term capital cost |
| Pilot trials and treatability testing | Tests real wastewater before a permanent investment |
| Plant expansion or commissioning | Bridges the gap until a new system is fully operational |
| Temporary compliance issue | Supports discharge performance while long-term improvements are implemented |
Available DAF Rental Models
ClearFox® offers DAF rental units in the following nominal flow ranges:
| Nominal capacity | Typical use |
| 1 m³/h | Pilot trials, side streams, very small wastewater flows |
| 2 m³/h | Small process water applications |
| 3 m³/h | Compact industrial wastewater treatment projects |
| 5 m³/h | Small-to-medium production sites |
| 7.5 m³/h | Variable industrial process water streams |
| 10 m³/h | Standard industrial pretreatment duties |
| 20 m³/h | Medium-to-large temporary treatment capacity |
| 50 m³/h | Large industrial wastewater flows |
| 100 m³/h | High-capacity temporary treatment projects |
Multiple units can be installed in parallel for larger flows.
The correct system size depends on average and peak flow, pollutant load, chemical conditioning requirements, operating hours and target discharge values. Project-specific configurations are available where needed.
What a DAF Rental System Can Remove
A dissolved air flotation system is designed to separate light and floatable contaminants from wastewater. After chemical conditioning and pH adjustment, fine air bubbles attach to flocs and lift them to the surface, where they are removed as flotation sludge.
A DAF rental unit can be used to reduce:
- suspended solids and fine particles
- fats, oils and grease
- free and dispersed oils
- fibres and light solids
- emulsified contaminants after chemical treatment
- a significant share of COD linked to floatable or flocculable material
This makes DAF rental a strong option for industrial wastewater streams that need reliable physical-chemical pretreatment before discharge, sewer discharge or further biological treatment.
Optional Modules for a Complete Rental Wastewater Treatment Solution
Many projects need more than a flotation unit alone. ClearFox® can configure a rental wastewater treatment system around the DAF stage to suit the wastewater and the site.
Available modules can include:
- equalization or buffer tanks
- pH correction and neutralization
- coagulant and flocculant dosing
- sludge dewatering
- screening or pre-treatment
- downstream biological treatment or polishing stages
This modular approach allows the DAF rental system to match the process instead of forcing the process to fit a fixed standard unit.
Industries and Applications
DAF rental is suitable for many industrial sectors where wastewater contains suspended solids, oil, grease or other floatable matter.
| Industry | Typical wastewater challenge | Why DAF rental is useful |
| Food and beverage | Fats, oils, grease, solids | Effective pretreatment during peaks or shutdowns |
| Meat, fish and dairy processing | High organic load and FOG | Supports temporary compliance and capacity increases |
| Recycling and plastics washing | Solids, fibres, oils, COD | Ideal for project-based and variable flows |
| Chemical and process industry | Emulsions, solids, complex wastewater | Flexible physical-chemical treatment stage |
| Metalworking and surface treatment | Oily wastewater and fines | Useful as temporary pretreatment |
| Textile and industrial manufacturing | Fibres, solids and variable loads | Scalable treatment during production changes |
| Municipal and industrial utilities | Temporary plant bypass or upgrade support | Fast additional treatment capacity |
