Municipal Wastewater Applications

N/A 1. Raw Sewage - Lift stations, CSO facilities, headworks, prisons, hospitals, restaurants.
2. Screening / Septage - Raw concentrated solids including rags, plastics and hair.
3. Clarifier Scum Pits - Primary or Secondary scum without plugging or air binding.
4. Sludge Transfer - Eliminates "roping" and clogging in clarifier underflow to thickeners.
5. & 6. RAS / WAS - Continuously conditions Return and Waste Activated Sludges.
7. & 8. Thickened Sludge / Digested Sludge Transfer - Handles high sludge consistencies.
9. Digester Mixing - Rotamix® system conditions and mixes in a dual-zone rotational flow pattern.
10. Digester Recirculation - Eliminates heat exchanger clogging while conditioning sludge.
11. F.O.G - (Fats, Oils, and Greases) - Uses organic waste to enhance methane production
