Material Composition | Corrosive wastewater treatment | Industry: Carbon Steel (prone to rust) ▲ Base: PP/PVC (ASTM D1784 compliant) ▲ Advanced: FRP (ASTM D790: 150 MPa flexural strength) | Base: Lightweight, chemical-resistant; Advanced: 50% higher durability in harsh chemicals | Base: Lower load capacity; Advanced: 20% higher cost vs. Base |
Structural Design | Lamella clarifier plate installation | Industry: Flat plates (inefficient flow) ▲ Base: Hexagonal honeycomb (ASTM C1283: 50mm thickness) ▲ Advanced: Reinforced hexagonal (20% ↑ flow efficiency) | Optimized sedimentation; customizable spacing for flow control | Hexagonal patterns require precise installation tools |
Certifications | Regulated water treatment facilities | Industry: No certification ▲ Base: CE, ASTM D638 (45 MPa tensile strength) ▲ Advanced: CE + NSF/ANSI 61 (food-grade safety) | Compliance with safety and health standards | Advanced certification adds 10–15% to upfront cost |
Warranty | Long-term operational environments | Industry: 6 months ▲ Base: 1 year ▲ Advanced: 2 years (with maintenance plan) | Extended protection against manufacturing defects | Advanced warranty requires adherence to maintenance schedules |
Chemical Resistance | Acidic/alkaline wastewater treatment | Industry: pH 5–9 ▲ Base: pH 3–12 (ASTM D543) ▲ Advanced: pH 1–14 (ISO 9352: 1000+ chemicals tested) | Base: Handles most industrial chemicals; Advanced: Full pH range compatibility | Base may degrade at extreme pH over prolonged exposure |
Load Capacity | High-throughput treatment plants | Industry: 500 kg/m² ▲ Base: 800 kg/m² (ISO 9001 tested) ▲ Advanced: 1200 kg/m² (ASTM D638: 45 MPa) | Base: Supports standard flow rates; Advanced: Heavy-duty applications | Advanced versions may require reinforced mounting structures |
