Sample Analysis + Pilot Testing Services
A first step, small-scale sample analysis gives our customers better insight into their process feasibility, optimization, equipment scaling and how to maximize efficiencies. Sludge samples are tested and analyzed, the data is reviewed - with recommendations for next steps by our Process Engineers and R&D Teams.
- Solids Analysis (total - dissolved - suspended or volatile solids)
- Polymer Screening
- Coagulant Screening
- Clarification Analysis
- Dewaterability Analysis
- Particle-size Analysis
- Nutrient Analysis
- Biological Methane Testing - partnership with Marquette University
A full-scale pilot test is proof-of-concept used to demonstrate the viability of equipment and/or a process on-site at your plant. Using the data collected from your plant`s sludge or slurry gives us more precise information which is needed to make the most accurate recommendations to meet or exceed your plants performance goals.
A pilot test helps to better determine: equipment sizing, throughput, solids capture, cake solids and polymer selection. A written report is provided to summarize the results.
