Robotic Waste Water Sludge Removal
Lack of capacity is a common issue faced by many wastewater treatment facilities, especially in the municipal space. Utilizing our robots, we are able to remove the sludge from your aeration basin, clarifier, or pond without bypass and without taking it out of service. We offer a truly turn-key solution providing the sludge removal, on-site dewatering, and disposal while your facility continues running.
Our robots are deployed into your basin while it is running. Our robots drive along the floor removing the sludge which is then dewatered on-site prior to disposal. By avoiding the shutdown or bypass of your normal operations, our method can result in significant cost savings.
