International technology group ANDRITZ presents its new range of Aqua-Screen fine screens, specially designed to meet the most demanding needs in handling municipal or industrial wastewater streams for customers in the environment sector. The ANDRITZ Aqua-Screen fine screens ensure optimum separation of suspended solids from the water influent, thus supporting enhanced performance by the downstream wastewater treatment process.
A modular concept for greater flexibility and cost savingsThe ANDRITZ Aqua-Screen fine screen uses standardized and common frame parts. This design provides environment customers with various benefits such as reduced maintenance time, reduced number of different spare parts required, operator-friendly adjustment with improved access door, and pop-out/pop-in modular design for screen racks and panels (less than 30 minutes needed for replacement of complete filter elements).
With its modular concept, the ANDRITZ Aqua-Screen fine screen is a high-tech solution adapted to customer needs and integrating all existing screening categories:
- ANDRITZ Aqua-Screen T: toothing system allows effective, two-dimensional fine screening and a lifting capacity (dimensions/quantity) unrivalled on the market; it can be adapted to suit any application.
- ANDRITZ Aqua-Screen P: perforated plate system allows circular, two-dimensional fine screening – one of the most efficient on the market; it can be adapted to most applications.
Depending on the screening system selected, the ANDRITZ Aqua-Screen fine screen can achieve a capture rate of up to 85%. A high capture rate improves maintenance costs by preventing high solids content reaching the downstream equipment (pumps, impeller, aeration turbines, and aeration compressors).
