In-pipe screw screens for wastewater treatment
Achieve efficient solids-liquid separation in wastewater streams with robust screw screens that prevent clogging, even with fibrous materials, ensuring optimal operation and reduced downtime in treatment processes.

Separates and De-waters Wastewater Solids
The WASTEMASTER GCPC/GCEC from WAMGROUP is a reliable solution for efficient solids-liquid separation in wastewater treatment facilities. Featuring a shaftless screw design, it prevents clogging even when handling fibrous materials. Installed in a self-supporting tank, these in-pipe screw screens are ideal for municipal and industrial applications, including civil wastewater, food, beverage, and plastics recycling industries. Capable of processing flow rates up to 1,000 m3/h, they de-water and compact solids, reducing volume by up to 35%, and operate continuously without the need for extensive civil works. The system is made from corrosion-resistant 304L/316L stainless steel, ensuring durability and compliance with safety regulations. Optional features like organic matter washing, heating systems, and alternative screen sizes provide customization to suit various operational needs, while low RPM operation contributes to reduced maintenance costs.
