Wastewater Treatment System Handles Dewatered Municipal Sludge

June 19, 2013
System features an integral hopper with a twin-screw auger feeder and progressing cavity pump that handles dewatered municipal sludge to more than 50 percent solids.

The Moyno 2000 HS system can pump filter cake further distances with high volumetric efficiencies. Its twin-screw feeder supplies a constant, pressurized feed rate to the pump, resulting in a 100 percent pump cavity fill rate. The Moyno 2000 HS System features an integral hopper with a twin-screw auger feeder and progressing cavity pump that handles dewatered municipal sludge to more than 50 percent solids. The enhanced design of the Ultra-Feed pump rotor provides volumetric efficiency.

For application versatility, the Moyno 2000 HS System offers varying twin screw feeder and hopper lengths to match wide feed areas from centrifuges and one- through three-meter length belt filter presses. The twin screw feeder and the hopper length can be readily modified without changing the pump arrangement.

In addition, concentric rotation of the augers in a close tolerance pressure tube allows the twin screw feeder to generate positive stuffing pressure to the pump inlet. The dual augers counter-rotate to create a pull-down effect with the product. Also, the hopper sidewalls are completely vertical leading into the augers, which does not allow filter cake to bridge.
