A key component of the treatment process for drinking water and wastewater is the efficient separation and dewatering of fine-grained sludge, using mechanical means whenever possible. In particular, large wastewater treatment plants serving a population of 200,000 or more must find the most economical, optimal solution for the dewatering and thickening process. Given this imperative, reliability, high economic efficiency, and minimal maintenance are of great importance for wastewater treatmen

Sicamous is situated on the beautiful Shuswap Lake in the interior of British Columbia and is known as the “Houseboat Capital of Canada”. Over the years, the increase in houseboat activity on the lake has caused increased influent loading conditions (TSS, BOD5, and Total Phosphorus (TP)) at the local wastewater treatment plant. Boats unload their sewage into the collection system and this increased influent has put stress on the existing WWTP’s ability t
Waste’n WaterTech is proud to have been involved in the City of Lethbridge Water Treatment Plant Residuals Management Upgrade where three 8-channel Fournier Rotary Presses were installed and commissioned in March of 2020 to dewater up to 1,000 dry kilograms per hour of waste residuals generated by the plant, thus avoiding these being discharged back into the river.
Flottweg decanters, Sedicanter® and belt presses are the optimal solution for extracting proteins from various raw materials. Our separation systems isolate valuable proteins and their plant-based by-products. We offer the right industrial centrifuge for all process steps − extraction, precipitation, washing, concentration and clarification. The aim is to obtain a large quantity of high quality protein from the plants.

Wastewater & COVID-19 Connections
When the word wastewater crosses your mind, there is probably also a memory of your Mom’s voice telling you – wash your hands! When humans transitioned into community living, keeping your living space separate from your bathroom space was an important rule to learn. We can thank early scientists who were curious about how diseases spread and whether hygiene could play a part. One such person was, Dr. John Snow, known as t
