In the first, smaller chamber of the HUBER Grit Trap GritWolf®, wastewater undergoes medium-bubble aeration, causing floatable particles to rise to the surface where they accumulate. These particles are then removed by a paddle system just before the outlet. The second chamber is unaerated and features lamella units. Thanks to the deep flow design and the benefits of the lamella separator, the GritWolf® efficiently removes even the finest grit particles.
The grit trap tank is typically constructed from concrete, although stainless steel tanks are available as an option for smaller plant sizes. The GritWolf® can also be seamlessly integrated into existing grit trap chambers. Both the horizontal grit conveyor, the lamella packages, and the paddle system for grease removal are made from corrosion-resistant materials for long-lasting performance.
The grit is extracted axially from the HUBER Grit Trap GritWolf® using a time-controlled horizontal screw conveyor. This ensures that even large accumulations of grit, such as "sand dunes" formed during stormwater flushes, are evenly fed into the suction area of a grit pump. The grit pump then transports the grit-water mixture to the HUBER Coanda Grit Washer RoSF4, where it undergoes a proven cleaning process to produce high-quality, clean grit, completing the entire grit treatment system.
