Clarifiers are chemicals that can be modified with small changes in pH so that they will form bulky hydroxides in the water.
As the hydroxides age they shrink and become less bouyant so they slowly settle out of the water. The hydroxides form around particles in the water, they will collide with other bouyant particles as they fall and will sweep them out of the water.
The Hydroxides will concentrate at the bottom of waters and can be removed by decanting.
Flocs can assist the removal by collecting and concentrating the hydroxide into filterable particles.

What is the purpose of a Lamella clarifier?
Lamella Clarifier is a particular brand of inclined plate clarifier. Their products are used to clarify and recycle by separating particles and dirt from unclean water.
What are the advantages of flocculent vs clarifier for clearing up pool water?
From what I gather from reading the back of the bottle of Clarifier that I use in my pool a Clarifier is a Flocculent. The clarifier contains a polymer that attracts the smaller particles floating around in the pool that are too small to be filtered through some filtration systems. As the clarifier attracts the smaller particles it becomes large enough for the filtration system to filter it out of the water thus clariying the pool water.
How long to wait after adding clarifier to pool to add other chemicals?
It is generally recommended to wait at least 24 hours after adding a pool clarifier before adding other chemicals to allow the clarifier to work effectively. This will ensure that the clarifier has sufficient time to settle and improve water clarity before introducing additional chemicals.
When can i add clarifier after phosphate?
You can add clarifier after phosphate when the phosphate levels have been adequately lowered and the water is balanced. It's crucial to wait until the phosphate treatment has fully circulated and taken effect, usually 24-48 hours, before applying clarifier. Additionally, ensure that the water's pH and alkalinity are within acceptable ranges to achieve the best results with the clarifier. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for both products for optimal effectiveness.
What is the difference between clarifier and classifier?
Clarifier removes solids from Liquid and Clarifier removes solids from Gas
Difference between a oil purifier and oil clarifier?
Basically, a clarifier is attached just after the purifier in the fuel line. While the main function of a purifier is to separate the dissolved water, impurities and sludge from the fuel oil, a clarifier removes any solid foreign material that is not removed from the oil after it passes through the purifier.
How do you use water clarifier?
Not too often as it tends to block up filters unles you vacuum to waste.
How long does it take for a clarifier to work before adding more?
A clarifier typically takes anywhere from 24 to 48 hours to show noticeable results in water clarity. It's important to allow this time for the clarifier to bind with particles and settle them before adding more. If the water remains cloudy after this period, you may consider adding more, but it's essential to follow the manufacturer's instructions for dosage and timing. Regular testing of water clarity can help determine the right timing for additional treatments.
How do you get rid of hazzy pool water?
Make sure your chemicals are balanced and add a clarifier available at your pool supply dealer.
If the pH level is good and the water is still cloudy what can i do?
Add a clarifier, available at you pool supply store
Is there a liquid you can add to pool water to remove silt?
Clarifier helps it clump together and fall to the bottom so that it can be vacuumed up.
Can you use a water clarifier as a conditioner when you do a water change?
No, a water clarifier is designed to help clear cloudy water by clumping together fine particles. It does not perform the same functions as a water conditioner, which is used to remove harmful chemicals like chlorine and chloramine from tap water. It's important to use the correct product for each specific purpose when maintaining an aquarium.
