IFM Series of Internally Fed Rotary Screens

The IFM, from IPEC Consultants, meets the needs of wastewater managers in preventing trash and inorganic solids from entering their bioreactors. The fine separation capability (down to 250 micron) of this unit, make it ideally suited to protect MBR’s and to remove those irregularly shaped solids that work their way through downstream processes

IFO - Internally Fed Screen - Overhung

IFO Series of Internally Fed Rotary Screens, from IPEC Consultants, have cylindrical drums mounted horizontally on four shaft-mounted wheels. The drum rotates at 4-5 rpm and is driven by a top-mounted, TEFC motor, geardrive, stainless steel chain and sprocket

SLB Series Screenings Conveyor/Compactor

For rural housing complexes, subdivisions, recreation resorts and exploration/construction sites the SLB, from IPEC Consultants, is the ideal screen.

RSS - Externally-Fed Screen

RSS Series of Externally-fed Rotary Screens have slotted wedgewire, cylindrical drums that rotate on two pillow block bearings and self clean on every revolution.

  Application Note: IPEC Replaces Failed Screen At Beef Processing Plant

  A Midwest beef slaughter operation, which processes 550 head of cattle per day, had installed wedge wire screening ahead of their DAF to reduce the solids loading to the flotation unit. By IPEC

• Durango Wastewater Treatment Plant Foils Energy Heist And Lowers Maintenance Costs

  The Durango wastewater treatment facility is a traditional waste-activated system. The bio-solids (WAS) is collected from secondary clarifiers, treated with flocculants and thickened before an anaerobic digestion. A centrifuge had been used for the thickening process which dewatered the WAS to a 8 to 10% consistency. The plant had three 50 hp units and used either one or two of the units as needed

  How Chemistry And Mechanics Deliver Cost-Effective Waste Treatment

  Polymer chemistry is one of the leading considerations when designing a sludge thickening system. The right polymer chemistry contributes to more effective thickening at a lower cost. However, the right chemistry must also be complemented by mechanical processes that enable the chemistry to work effectively. Waste treatment equipment manufacturer IPEC collaborated with polymer suppliers for extensive lab trials to design a waste activated sludge (WAS) thickening system for the City of Brockville, a city of more than 23,000 people located in the southeastern part of Ontario, Canada. The rotary drum system is capable of thickening 5.25 I/second of 0.55 percent municipal sludge to up to 7 percent solids.

  Case Study: Wastewater Treatment Plant Protecting Wilderness With Membrane Bioreactor Technology

  When it came time to design a new wastewater treatment plant for Field, the seasonal rise in population during the summer months added to the challenge of meeting Parks Canada's stringent mountain effluent targets. The goal of the new wastewater treatment plant was to protect this pristine wilderness area by setting the effluent target as close as possible to the natural composition of the receiving water bodies. With this in mind, Parks Canada reviewed the latest in advanced treatment technology and opted for a membrane bioreactor system
