Reactive Pump Controller

CONTROLLING THE THICKNESS OF SLUDGE AT SOURCE  Abstract Primary and co-settled sludges are commonly removed from settlement tanks using timed, pumped, auto-desludge systems that are neither sensitive to the variable flux of settleable influent material nor sense the thickness of the sludge removed, resulting in thin sludge being produced which requires significant thickening before digestion and are expensive to transport by road tanker. The patented reactive pump controller, developed by IDS, senses the sludge thickness…
