Sand washing and classifier
Brickhouse offer the sand washing & classifier system from Werkstoff + Function, a German company that specializes in inlet works equipment for water and wastewater treatment plants.
The W+F sand washing classifier is designed to meet Germany's stringent organics separation targets. The sand washing classifier is a compact design in stainless steel fabrication with inbuilt sand bed monitoring capability and controlled by standalone PLC.
Traditional grit classifiers only dewater the grit and end up retaining most of the organics. This results in odours, flies nuisance and the requirement for disposing of the grit at landfills.
Regulations in Europe have moved to stringent sand washing standards. In Germany, these standards demand organics concentrations reduced down to either 3% or 5% dependent on the particular installation. The high standards open up cost effective options for disposal of the washed grit.
With increasing disposal costs from screenings and organics contaminated grit it is highly recommended that a cost-benefit analysis be undertaken for all new or renovated grit removal system installations. Payback periods for grit washing equipment of three years or less are not uncommon.
