Grease and grit removal system for wastewater treatment
In wastewater treatment plants, effective removal of grease and grit is crucial to maintain operational efficiency. These contaminants can cause clogs, reduce the effectiveness of downstream equipment, and increase maintenance costs. Addressing this challenge requires a reliable system that can handle both municipal and industrial wastewater.

Efficiently separate and remove grease and grit
The PVD Grease and Grit Removal Travelling Bridge from WAMGROUP is designed to efficiently remove grease and grit from rectangular tanks in municipal and industrial wastewater plants. Featuring a movable truck with surface and bottom scrapers, it operates back and forth via a central gearbox connected to trolley drive wheels. The tank is divided into two sections: one for grit settling and the other for grease collection. An air injection system (not supplied) ensures the separation of organic and floating particles from the grit, directing scum into the grease collection channel while grit settles. The bridge then collects the settled grit into a hopper and conveys scum with a surface scraper. Available for tanks up to 8 meters wide and 50 meters long, the system is constructed from durable materials like hot dip-galvanised carbon steel or stainless steel (304 L / 316 L).
