If you are wondering what advanced grit management is and how your plant will benefit by using it, this eGuide is what you need to read. Grit removal has long been a neglected process, with focus placed on “higher priorities.” Designers and plant staff sometimes take the perspective of “anything is better than nothing” which leads to choosing conventional technologies that are designed using 50-year-old principles. Unfortunately, conventional technologies typically remove only 30% to 50% of influent grit.

The biggest reason these conventional technologies fail to perform is that they simply are not designed to capture fine grit particles, and in fact also miss a significant portion of the larger grit particles. Hydro International saw this problem and decided to fix it once and for all — rigorously analyzing problems and scientifically evaluating the behavior of grit in actual WWTP flows to invent new advanced grit removal technologies that could actually solve these plant’s grit problems.

Today’s treatment plants continue to move toward more advanced treatment processes that provide much better treatment performance, often in a much smaller footprint. As a result, these newer types of processes can be much more severely impacted when grit is allowed to enter them. Fortunately, Hydro International’s Advanced Grit Management technologies are designed and independently proven to protect these more delicate plant processes.
