San Diego Experiences Benefits Beyond Contaminant Reduction

Because inadequate screening was allowing hair, fiber and sand contaminants to work their way through its treatment process, The City of San Diego Public Utilities Department Wastewater Branch sought out sludge cleaning technology that they could integrate into their existing system.

The Branch originally put five Strainpress® SP4 In-Line Sludge Screens units in place at its Point Loma facility. The technology was so beneficial that the five existing units were upgraded and an additional unit purchased, bringing the Branch’s grand total of Strainpress® sludge screens to six.
