Problem-free pumping of sludge is important for the proper operation of a wastewater treatment plant. Often different types of positive displacement pumps are used for this task. They are capable of pumping highly viscous liquids such as sludge at high pressure but are often expensive to maintain and troublesome to service.
An excellent alternative is Landia’s chopper pump. The pump is simple, robust and easy to service. There are no fine tolerances that require adjustment after changing the impeller. This makes the pump much less sensitive to dry matter and sand, and it keeps the cost of operation and maintenance down. And then it is also a chopper pump, and you are “insured” against blockages due to threads and other things in the sludge.
Most positive displacement pumps are expensive to maintain and troublesome to service. A Landia pump is much less sensitive to the abrasive particles and stringy materials that are often found in sludge.
And the wear parts are much less costly and faster to replace, compared to rotary lobe pumps and progressive cavity pumps.
Finding a partner with extensive experience in wastewater management is crucial, and frankly, there’s no one out there with more experience in wastewater mixers than Landia.
Since the late 1980s, when we supplied our first mixers for sewage treatment plants, Landia products have found their way into sewage treatment facilities worldwide. The wastewater industry has been growing steadily year after year, and we’ve been growing right along with it.
When you get in touch with Landia, you’ll be speaking with people who aren’t just familiar with the industry; they’re enthusiastic about it, just like you.
