I have a situation where it it agvantageous to have an air lift inclined at (Approximately) 60 degrees from horizontal.

The scenario is located in a wastewater clarifier, domestic sludge. In leu of cross bracing the tank, I was wondering how air lift pumps will perform at 30 degrees off vertical bracketed to the fillet. If anyone has experience, or guidance it will be appreciated.

Additionally, is air lift pump design guidance available?

Thanks in advance.
