Screw screen GCP-GCE

WASTEMASTER GCP / GCE ensure efficient solids-liquid separation in the primary treatment section of civil waste water treatment plants, as well as in various industrial applications. WASTEMASTER GCP Screw Screens consist of a screen basket, a conveyor screw and a compacting section. The GCE-type is almost identical with the GCP but misses the compacting section. WASTEMASTER GCP Screw Screens are suitable for applications in which screenings may not or cannot be compacted. GCP is designed for combined action of separating of solids present in the effluent and compacting and dewatering of screened solids. Their high quality and flexibility makes them the ideal choice for a variety of applications in intermittent operation. Function The separation process starts inside the screen which holds back solids only. The internal part of the screen is continuously cleaned by special brushes fixed on the outside diameter of the spiral. As the water runs through the screen the shaftless spiral conveys the solids up towards the compacting module where the material is further de-watered. Depending on the material properties, screenings can be reduced by more than 35% of their original volume.
