Well believe it or not we actually like being corrected. After reading to our one rambling we see where it fall apart. We aimed too comment on the coupling made earlier in this tread about separation through acceleration or/and gravity.



As for Vortex:

vortex

/vorteks/

• noun (pl. vortexes or vortices /vortiseez/) a whirling mass, especially a whirlpool or whirlwind.

Is it a brand name? We cross the principal off rotating mass all the time and also in the small unit described it’s often used.



Back to the point addressed. The smaller units really make good use off the differential weight. Last time I had my hand on one was as last stage before reintroducing heated water in paper production. These units often incorporate mechanical strainers off some sort and utilises backpressure to time back flushing. With pairing we have no problem holding water feed continues and particle is a mater off components.



For Nishikigoi ponds we have found better function in gravity (in normal budgets). Have had better experience with mechanical removal after first letting on “vortex” cycle have a go on the water. In any case we always make this part easy accessible for heavy flush (75mm +) and cleaning action. It’s also easily to take out off flow and not in the total biomass calculation (conception).
