Peripheral traction clarifiers for waste water treatment

Efficiently addressing the challenge of biological sludge and scum removal, these clarifiers optimize sedimentation and separation in waste water treatment, enhancing effluent quality while minimizing operational costs.

Removes Sludge and Collects Scum Effortlessly

The PTP Peripheral Traction Clarifiers by WAMGROUP are engineered for superior sludge and scum removal in municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plants. Utilizing a rotating central support and traction trolley, the PTP efficiently divides inflowing wastewater, enabling precise sedimentation and collection of both heavy sludge and floating scum. This system operates with continuous centralized sludge removal and features customizable options for tanks up to 60 meters in diameter. Available in hot dip-galvanized carbon steel or stainless steel (304L/316L), it ensures durability and corrosion resistance. Designed for seamless integration, it supports various operational voltages and is equipped with state-of-the-art motor protection, ensuring reliable function in demanding environments. Easy to install even in pre-existing tanks, the PTP combines operational efficiency with low maintenance requirements, making it an essential asset for consistent clean water output.

Benefits
