Sulzer’s new Drumscreen Monster® Channel Rotary Screen (CRS) is an innovative screening solution designed to boost the efficiency and performance of municipal wastewater treatment facilities. Initially exclusively available for U.S. customers, the solution meets the exacting demands of modern treatment processes with superior solids capture, reduced maintenance downtime, and seamless integration into existing infrastructure. This state-of-the-art design ensures treatment plants can operate more efficiently, with fewer disruptions and lower operational costs, while maintaining high environmental protection standards.
Designed for installation in the headworks section of municipal wastewater treatment plants, the Drumscreen Monster CRS plays a crucial role in the initial stages of the treatment process. Efficiently removing solids at the beginning of the treatment cycle prevents blockages and reduces the burden on sensitive downstream equipment.
While it is particularly effective for protecting Membrane Bioreactors (MBR), which are highly sensitive to solid contamination, the solution is versatile enough to support a wide range of treatment processes. This versatility makes it an ideal solution for facilities looking to enhance their treatment capabilities, whether upgrading existing systems or building new infrastructure.
The Drumscreen Monster CRS consists of a robust spiral screw housed within a high-efficiency perforated drum, which works in tandem to enhance the capture of solids from wastewater streams. This combination of components ensures that even the smallest particulates are efficiently removed, protecting downstream processes from clogging and reducing the load on secondary treatment systems. It is available in diameters ranging between 2 ft and 6 ft and supports perforation sizes of 2mm, 3mm, and 6mm, flexibly accommodating a wide variety of treatment needs.
