Sludge Blowdown System

The Automatic Sludge Blowdown System automates two times, the sludge collection time, and the sludge discharge time. The sludge collection time is when the clarifier is “in use” or the time it takes for sludge to settle in the cone of the clarifier. The sludge discharge time is when the pump transfers the sludge from the clarifier to the sludge thickening tank. The system will automatically open the discharge valve and activate the diaphragm pump, and after a predetermined time, it will automatically turn the pump off and close the valve. The system comes with a sludge valve, air valve, control panel with timers, and a cast iron diaphragm pump.

The Automatic Sludge Blowdown System reduces the need for manual operation. This will save you time and money on the cost of an operator. It will also maintain consistent wastewater flow. The system will also safeguard against sludge overflow, eliminating human error.

Waste Water Treatment Systems Case Study: Just to clarify…: A new boarding school needed to put in a self-contained sanitary waste treatment system to handle all water sources generated at their facility. Met-Chem designed and built two 120 GPM clarifiers with flocculation tanks, and custom catwalks built to fit space limitations and overlook and operate the waste treatment system.
