In sewage treatment plants, screens are often used to remove larger solids, such as branches, plastics, and other debris. If these solids are not removed in time, they may cause damage to subsequent treatment equipment. For example, larger solids may cause blockage, wear or failure of the pump, or even cause equipment downtime. Through effective screen cleaning, slurry pumps can protect the safe operation of subsequent equipment and extend the service life of the equipment.
Timely removal of solids on the screen not only helps protect the equipment, but also significantly improves the overall efficiency of sewage treatment. Solids accumulated on the screen will reduce the passage of water flow, thereby affecting the inflow rate of sewage, resulting in longer sewage retention time, which in turn affects the load and efficiency of subsequent treatment units. Rapid cleaning of slurry pumps can ensure that sewage enters the next treatment stage at a stable flow rate and speed, improving the efficiency of the treatment process.
Traditional screen cleaning often relies on manual operation, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also poses safety hazards. The automated cleaning system of slurry pumps can reduce dependence on manual labor and achieve continuous and stable operation. This automated operation can significantly improve work efficiency, reduce labor costs, and reduce the operating time of operators in high-risk environments, thereby improving safety.
In the sewage treatment process, the reliability of the system is crucial. If the screen is not cleaned for a long time, it will cause water flow reversal or excessive pipe pressure, and even cause the overall failure of the system. The slurry pump ensures that the system operates under stable operating conditions through effective cleaning, which enhances the reliability of the system and reduces the failure rate. This stability is crucial to the normal operation of the sewage treatment plant, especially during peak periods.
