The Vassar wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) in Michigan, confronted with persistent challenges from non-dissolvable solids such as flushable wipes and rags, adopted Duperon's Dual Auger System (DAS) to address these issues effectively. Before the installation of the DAS in December 2023, the plant, managed by a small team, faced frequent equipment clogs and heightened maintenance demands due to these troublesome materials.

The DAS system revolutionized operations by capturing, dewatering, compacting, and conveying solids, thereby safeguarding downstream equipment from potential damage. Its customizable and efficient design has markedly decreased maintenance frequency and enhanced the quality of biosolids. The DAS's innovative features facilitate easy cleaning and reduced upkeep, resulting in significant time and cost savings. The successful implementation at Vassar WWTP, along with notable savings at nearby facilities, underscores the DAS's efficacy in advancing wastewater management practices.
