FRC’s in-house jar testing identifies the optimal pretreatment chemical strategy for dissolved air flotation and sludge dewatering. These controlled tests simulate full-scale performance to inform chemical dosing, equipment selection, and system design.

FRC performs jar testing by introducing various chemical treatments—coagulants, flocculants, pH adjustments—into small volumes of your actual wastewater. The process simulates coagulation, flocculation, whitewater interaction, and DAF flotation in a controlled lab environment. Sludge compressibility may also be tested for dewatering suitability. These tests help determine optimal chemical types, doses, and performance expectations before full-scale implementation, allowing you to fine-tune treatment and reduce chemical and operational costs.
