  4. SLUDGE TRANSFER – Eliminates “roping” and clogging in clarifier underflow to thickeners.
  5. RAS / WAS – Continuously conditions Return and Waste Activated Sludges.
  6. As above
  7. THICKENED SLUDGE / DIGESTED SLUDGE TRANSFER – Handles high sludge consistencies.
  8. As above
  9. DIGESTER MIXING – Rotamix system conditions and mixes in a dual-zone rotational flow pattern.
  10. DIGESTER RECIRCULATION – Elimiates heat exchanger clogging while conditioning sludge.
