Abstract: A water clarification system for removing suspended solids from a fluid, such as sewage, using gravity. The water clarification system may include a plurality of settling plates releasably coupled to a housing. The housing positions the settling plates at acute angles relative to a substantially horizontal line using a plurality of guides. The settling plates are kept in position using one or more flanges that are releasably coupled to side walls of the housing. The water clarification system operates by receiving a fluid through an inlet orifice located near bottom sections of the plurality of settling plates. The fluid travels in the spaces between adjacent settling plates and through apertures in top flanges of the settling plates. The fluid collects in an exit channel that is formed by the top flanges of the settling plates.
