Microscreen drum filter tertiary polishing plant

Microscreen drum filter tertiary polishing plant

The microscreen is used when further solids and/or biochemical oxygen demand (BOD) needs to be removed:

  • Preventing damage to downstream processes
  • Improving efficiency of downstream processes
  • Reducing contamination to watercourses
  • Seperating effluents to enable recycling

The unique design of the drum filter maximises the surface area of filtration to achieve high removal efficiency with extremely low operating costs.

  • Hire, trial or capital purchase

Applications:

  • Water utilities and municipal wastewater
  • Industrial trade effluent

Hire and trial – no capital risk

  • Trial equipment to prove the technology before investment
  • Extensive fleet of emergency hire equipment
  • Skid mounted option

Fast and effective hire of the Microscreen offers immediate enhancement to onsite effluent treatment – bringing your site into compliance.

Case Studies
Ian Storie, asset planner wastewater, Scottish Water, said, “Operating and maintaining our wastewater treatment works to reduce the likelihood of pollution and protect the natural environment is one of our priorities. The success of this trial with WPL, especially under the challenging hot weather conditions experienced in the summer, opens up the treatment options available to help meet discharge standards at our rural sites. “In fact the trial was so successful that we have purchased the unit to make the installation permanent.”
