Grit classifier for wastewater treatment
Optimize your wastewater treatment process with a grit classifier that efficiently separates and dewaters gritty materials, ensuring clean, treated effluent and reducing sludge volume.
Separates and Conveys Grit from Wastewater
The GRITSEP DS Grit Classifier from WAMGROUP is designed to efficiently separate and convey grit and sand particles from wastewater streams. Featuring an inclined screw conveyor within a sedimentation hopper, it operates with low screw rotation speed to enhance sedimentation and ensure smooth transport of de-watered grit and sand. A primary choice for industries like municipal wastewater treatment and food processing, it transforms the separation process through its shaftless screw design, reducing wear and extending equipment lifespan. With capacities ranging from 5 to 36 m³/h of liquid throughput, it facilitates seamless integration into existing setups. Manufactured from stainless steel with a low-friction, wear-resistant liner, it’s built to withstand corrosive environments. Options for customization, including alternative voltage and control panels, ensure the GRITSEP DS caters to diverse operational needs, minimizing maintenance and maximizing efficiency.
