A Mechanical Screen is the first stage in wastewater and effluent treatment, removing coarse and fine solids from incoming influent water. It acts as a barrier, protecting downstream treatment units from clogging, wear, and operational damage.
Designed to capture and eliminate large debris like plastics, rags, and floating matter, these screens ensure smooth operation and reduce maintenance for pumps, aeration tanks, and clarifiers. Available types include coarse bar screens, fine screens, and rotary drum screens.
Mechanical screens function as the primary defense in treatment plants by intercepting large solids and debris before water enters the main treatment process. Based on application needs, they are available in:
