Wipe out the wipes problem with Mono Munchers and screens from AxFlow
Treatment plants fulfill an important function in society to prevent the spread of infection and
eutrophication but have major challenges with what is flushed down the toilet. Anything other than toilet paper causes problems. Toilet paper dissolves quickly in water, but other solid materials such as wet wipes, cotton and tampons do not. Instead, they form long threads and twist together, causing blockages and damage to pumps. Even hair causes serious problems with blockages. We have also read about the fat monster in London’s sewer system.
Pumping stations in municipalities have major problems with frequently occurring blockages in their
large sewage pumps. Almost every day, several hours of work with dismantling, taking apart and cleaning the pumps. Maintenance costs are high, and it is a dirty and time-consuming job.
But there is a remedy for this! The Muncher cuts the waste into small pieces so
that it does not cause any damage to your valuable equipment. With its special design for atomizing
abrasive sludge, the TR Muncher is very effective in capturing irregularly shaped particles. It finely
shreds, for example, rags, solid impurities, and fiber accumulations in treatment plants and pumping
stations.
By using a Muncher, the need for operational interruptions due to cleaning the pump and grid is
minimized. In the Muncher’s housing, there are two shafts mounted with cutting knives that are driven against each other to grab hold of the solid impurities
