Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) is a proven and adaptable technology for removing solids, oils and other contaminants from wastewater – and is particularly valued in sectors such as food and beverage for its ability to handle seasonal load variations.

To explore DAF’s role in modern treatment strategies, Refreshment spoke with Mohamed Sameh, business development manager for vertical expansion, water solutions and services at Xylem. Watch our Drinktec 2025 interview below:
