The sludge skimmer is a core auxiliary equipment for wastewater treatment sedimentation tanks, serving to collect settled sludge from the tank bottom, remove floating scum from the water surface, and transport the sludge to the sludge treatment unit (stacked screw dewatering machine). It is typically deployed in integrated systems alongside a chemical dosing system, screen, and submersible mixer.

The entire set of supporting logic for wastewater treatment processes

Rotary screen → Biochemical tank (submersible mixer) → Sedimentation tank (sludge skimmer) → Sludge lifting pump → PA-M automatic chemical dosing system + spiral press sludge dewatering machine

The integrated dosing system simultaneously adds PAC coagulant to enhance sludge settling efficiency in the sedimentation tank and reduce the workload on the sludge skimmer.

core advantage

1. Fully automated continuous operation: performs sludge scraping 24/7 without human intervention, eliminating the need for manual tank cleaning;

2. Multi-functional design: simultaneously removes sediment from the pond bottom and skims floating debris from the water surface, eliminating the need for separate debris removal equipment;

3. Corrosion-resistant and durable: The underwater scrapers and cable trays are made of 304 stainless steel, suitable for acidic and alkaline industrial wastewater;

4. Energy-efficient and low consumption: operates smoothly at low speeds, significantly reducing energy consumption compared to manual dredging or pump-assisted sludge removal;

5. Multiple protections: overload shutdown and automatic vehicle alignment correction to prevent equipment damage caused by mud accumulation.
