The Discam units, which have been installed at the No 1, 2 and 3 sewage pumping stations in Fuzhou, combine NOV Mono’s grinder and screen technology.

The Discams have been installed at the inlets to the three pumping stations, where they now screen and grind solids in order to protect the large submersible pumps which are used downstream.

“Packaged systems such as Discam are ideal for this type of application,” said Ian Hallows, NOV Mono’s business manager for Waste-Tec products. “By screening and macerating solids in a single operation they can create major benefits in wastewater treatment processes. Operating efficiency is increased, while the cost of cleaning plus onward handling and disposal are significantly reduced. The Discam units can be installed in both existing or new-build facilities and this makes them suitable for almost any type of wastewater facility.”
