Core technology 1
Adaptive Gel Flocculants
Self-dosing, self-limiting chemistry that reacts in proportion to solids loading - no dosing pumps or calibration. Operates across pH 3-12 to drastically reduce TSS, heavy metals, and phosphorus.
Hardware & deployment systems
ASRT - Advanced Solids Removal Technology
A fully self-contained, mobile wastewater treatment unit engineered for remote and infrastructure-constrained applications. Six core technologies - one integrated package, inside a single 40-foot ISO ocean container.
What is the ASRT?
A complete treatment plant in one container
Clearflow Group patented technology and Viking West Engineered Products have brought together their expertise in water treatment chemistry and industrial product manufacturing to develop a new ecosystem of innovative water treatment products. The ASRT integrates adaptive self-dosing Gel Flocculants, engineered flocculation reactors, FOG Lynx conditioning, high-rate lamella clarification, multiphase disinfection, and polishing into one automated batch process.
- PLC-based automation with remote monitoring
- Compatible with grid, generator, and renewable energy
- Full treatment batch cycle in 30 minutes
Patented Technology
Six core technologies
One integrated package
Core technology 2
Engineered Reactors
In-line reaction chambers with cartridge-based Gel Flocculant delivery eliminate the need for a floc station or chemical pumps while precisely controlling water-gel interaction.
Core technology 3
FOG Conditioning
Proprietary FOG Lynx formulation conditions fats, oils, and grease before flocculation - improving agglomeration, clarification performance, and sludge density, and rendering solids inert in under 24 hours.
Core technology 4
Lamella Plate Clarifier
Inclined settling plates deliver settling 3-5x faster than conventional tanks in 3-5x less volume, with no moving parts and no system power requirement.
Core technology 5
Multiphase Disinfection
CO2 and ozone provide high-efficiency pathogen destruction, advanced oxidation, and final water chemistry conditioning - stronger and faster than chlorine, with no harmful residuals.
Core technology 6
Advanced Water Polishing
Sand filtration, zeolite media, and optional UV combine for the final level of clarity and discharge confidence, producing low-turbidity water for accurate sensor validation.
Batch process overview
Variable wastewater in, reuse-ready water out
Elapsed time: 30 minutes
Step 1
Source Tank
Holds influent and delivers controlled batches for treatment.
Step 2
Gel Flocculant Reactors
Introduce self-dosing gel flocculants matched to the water.
Step 3
Flocculation Tanks
Mix conditioned water to promote floc growth and primary settling.
Step 4
Clarifier
Separates fine solids using high-rate lamella clarification.
Step 5
Disinfection & pH Reduction
Oxidizes residual organics, inactivates microbes, and optimizes pH.
Step 6
Polishing
Filters water through sand, adsorbent, and optional UV for final polishing.
The entire train is automated, monitored, and safeguarded by the onboard PLC + HMI, with solids settled and stored for safe disposal.
