🧭 1. Stage Purpose
- Remove settled gypsum solids from the clarifier
- Concentrate solids into a manageable slurry or sludge stream
- Prevent solids accumulation from reducing clarifier capacity
- Maintain stable sludge blanket control
- Prepare solids for dewatering, disposal, or reuse
📊 2. Normal Operating Envelope
- Sludge Withdrawal Rate: ___ to ___ GPM
- Withdrawal Frequency: ___ times/day
- Sludge Solids Concentration: ___ % solids
- Clarifier Sludge Blanket Level: ___ to ___ % of tank depth
- Visual: Consistent solids discharge, no plugging, no excessive dilution
🟢 3. What “Normal” Looks Like
- Sludge is removed at regular, predictable intervals
- Solids discharge is steady and contains visible gypsum slurry
- Clarifier sludge blanket remains stable
