Humus, return activated and surplus activated sludge transfer

Humus, return activated and surplus activated sludge transfer Pumps

The effectiveness of wastewater treatment often lies in the effective management of sludge – the residual, semi-solid material generated from treated wastewater. The need to ensure that sludge is handled properly, in a manner that is both efficient and environmentally friendly, is paramount. The trio of Humus, Return Activated, and Surplus Activated Sludge Transfer pumps are essential to this.
