The Monster Wash Press from JWC Environmental cleans and compacts the discharge from headworks screens, separating water and organics from the solids. Its Muffin Monster grinder preconditions screenings before entering the press. The grinder breaks open rags, plastics, and trash to promote washing and removal of soft organics. The rotor paddle in the wash zone agitates the material to enhance water penetration throughout the debris for even better removal of the organics from the solids. Organics are washed back into the wastewater treatment process, and the solids are compacted into a dry, less-odorous solid plug. The press is designed for easy maintenance. The rotor and field-replaceable screen can be removed via the top of the unit, minimizing the clearance space needed around the unit during maintenance. A grinderless version is available. 800-331-2277; www.jwce.com
