ProTechTor™ GREASE AND GRIT REMOVAL SYSTEM
Hi-Tech grease and grit
removal systems offer the optimum in fully automatic grease and grit
removal. This sophisticated design utilizes a dual compartment
basin, separated by flow control baffles, and incorporates
adjustable air flow rates, a foam control system (optional) and
fully automated devices on all grease skimming equipment.
In
addition to removal of grit, which helps eliminated down stream
damage to other plant equipment, the pre-aeration and grease process
removal process also contributed to B.O.D. reduction.
Grease
and grit systems are available in various sizes to accommodate flows
to 25 MGD.
The
parallel basin configuration incorporates an aerated grit basin and
a grease collection basin. The grit basin rolls the grit and
promotes rapid settling. the settled grit is pumped from the basin
to an effluent grit channel, passes through a Hi-Tech grit
classifier where the grit and fluid is separated and removed. The
quiescent grease basin promotes fast and effective removal of grease
and other floatables. The floatables are skimmed via a full surface
skimming blade, collected into a scum pit, then discarded. Grease
tray lift assemblies and grease removal screws are also available as
options.
The grease and grit
air supply can be provided by individual blowers or existing plant
air supply. Air is piped through a distribution header to the
diffusers that are located in the bottom of the grit aeration
compartment.
Flow control baffle basin
dividers promote tank roll in the grit collection section of the
chamber while simultaneously producing a quiescent zone for fast and
effective removal of grease and other floatables.
