Aerated grit chamber for wastewater treatment
Optimize wastewater treatment with effective sedimentation and de-greasing, ensuring cleaner effluent and reduced solids in industrial and municipal applications.

Separates and Degreases Wastewater with Efficient Sedimentation
The WASTEMASTER DSF 2-3 from WAMGROUP offers a robust solution for wastewater treatment facilities focusing on efficient sedimentation and de-greasing processes. It features a unique combination of a sedimentation tank and a sand-extracting screw to achieve up to 95% separation of particles ≥ 200 μm. Suitable for applications ranging from municipal to industrial effluent treatment, the unit efficiently processes flow rates up to 210 liters per second. Its modular design facilitates easy integration into existing systems, while a self-adjusting scraper device and optional SINT™ floating screw enhance durability and heavy-duty performance. The WASTEMASTER DSF 2-3 minimizes infrastructure costs by requiring no civil works and simplifies installation with easy on-site assembly. Constructed with corrosion-resistant materials, it is designed for continuous, high-capacity operations, making it ideal for environments including abattoirs, beverage, and food processing, as well as pulp and paper industries.
