Baldwin Industrial Systems designs and manufactures advanced dissolved air flotation (DAF) units for reliable removal of oil, grease and suspended solids.
Built in Australia and backed by decades of engineering experience, Baldwin DAF systems support water recycling, reduced disposal costs and consistent discharge compliance across industrial sectors.
Simple process. Superior efficiency.
DAF treatment separates contaminants by dissolving air into wastewater under pressure.
When released, the air forms microbubbles that attach to solids, oils and greases, lifting them to the surface. A scraper system removes the accumulated float, producing clarified effluent.
Compared with sedimentation, DAF provides faster clarification, reduced chemical demand, and high-quality effluent, even under high-load conditions.
Compliance, efficiency and reliability built in.
The faster path to cleaner water.
| Process | Description | Typical Outcome |
|---|---|---|
| Sedimentation | Uses gravity to settle solids at the base of the tank | Slower; less efficient in high-load conditions |
| Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) | Floats contaminants to the surface via air microbubbles | Rapid separation and higher-quality effluent |
For sites needing reliable throughput and compliance, DAF is the preferred solution.
Proven performance across Australian industry.
Used wherever wastewater compliance is critical, including:
Municipal and industrial waste facilities
Tailored performance for every site.
DAF systems are available in a range of flow rates, including units up to 100,000 L/hr, and can integrate with:
Optional accessories:
All Baldwin DAF systems are fully fabricated and assembled in-house, delivered ready for installation with no additional commissioning required.
Compliance without compromise.
With more than 35 years in industrial wastewater treatment, Baldwin delivers engineered reliability across Australia.
Efficient separation. Reliable compliance.
Talk to Baldwin Industrial Systems about a DAF unit engineered for your site’s flow, contaminant load and compliance requirements.
A DAF system removes suspended solids, oils and greases by releasing dissolved air into wastewater. Microbubbles attach to contaminants and float them to the surface for removal.
DAF uses flotation rather than gravity, enabling faster solids removal and superior performance under high-load or variable-temperature conditions.
Food processing, mining, manufacturing, recycling, wash bays, oily water treatment and other industrial sites requiring consistent discharge quality.
Coalescing separators, dosing skids, compressors, pumps, flocculation tanks and monitoring equipment to meet performance goals.
Yes. Each unit is built to site-specific flow rates, tank volumes, integration needs and compliance requirements.
