A MORE THAN 50% reduction in the volume and weight of screenings is achieved by the new MEVA Counter Pressure Screw which has been launched in the UK by Hydro International’s Wastewater division.

When combined with the MEVA Screw Wash Press, the MEVA CPS unit produces shredded screenings with a dry solids content of between 50 and 60%, making them ideal for incineration. The MEVA CPS unit also reduces the volume of screenings by half, compared to using the SWP alone, offering WWTW operators up to 80% savings in disposal costs.

Connected to the Screw Wash Press by a pipe bend, the MEVA CPS creates a counter pressure to that produced by the working cycle of the SWP, maximising the time the screenings are retained in the press zone and ensuring the longest available time for washing. At discharge, the material is shredded to make it suitable for incineration.
