Superior Solids Handling AMS Hydraulics Solve Clogging Crisis at Critical Station

Several months ago, HOMA was asked by our distributor Emmons Metro to provide a solution to a critical station at a facility that handles wastewater from produce and associated packaging for a large supermarket chain in the Northeast. The existing pumps were a cutter / chopper type pump from a reputable competitor. These pumps were struggling to pass the solids content found in the wastewater and were clogging regularly. The solids were primarily long and fibrous plant matter that was forming rag balls around the cutter blade. This meant near weekly callouts at substantial cost.
