The Grit Classifier is a key piece of equipment for most wastewater treatment plants. This equipment is located in the Headworks area of the facility. It receives a grit slurry from the process and through separation and removal action removes the grit from the...
Scum pipes represent one of the simplest and most economical ways to remove scum and other floating materials from the water surface in a municipal water or wastewater treatment plant. They typically operate intermittently from day to day, either manually or...
Most grit classifiers employ an inclined shafted screw conveyor that rotates at a quite slow RPM and conveys grit from a hopper up and out of the water and then discharges into a dumpster or container. This shafted screw requires an end bearing assembly at both ends....
Rotating scum pipe system is the most popular and most common option employed for collecting floating scum at municipal treatment facilities. There are numerous customized options available in the design of a system, both in materials of construction and the way you...
Submerged grit collection screws are used in Municipal Wastewater Treatment plants. Grit screws are used in a classification process most often in aerated grit tanks to remove grit from water. These screws are conveying grit from the...
Grit Classifiers, also known as a grit screws or grit separators, are used at wastewater treatment plants at the headworks (front end of the plant) to help separate the grit from organics and water. Grit removal needs to be performed at the headworks of plants...

A rotating scum pipe system typically extends the entire width of a basin. It is typically located at the far end of the basin, with flow towards the scum pipe, and supported at each end with an end bearing assembly anchored to the wall. The scum pipe typically has 60...
Constant and/or intermittent skimming and removal of floating scum from the surface of process basins has been a necessity in municipal water and wastewater treatment processes to remove this material from the water so it can continue downstream scum free....
