Sludge receiving station

Overview

Sewage sludge from small decentralized sewage treatment plants or sewer cleaning operations is delivered in special vehicles. It is collected in a receiving tank and then gradually fed into the main sewage treatment plant for processing. Continuous level measurement determines the content of the receiving tank and controls the input to the plant.
