Mechanical Wastewater Treatment Solutions

Introduction

Mechanical treatment is the first and most essential step in wastewater purification. At Purecreek Environmental Services, we provide a full range of mechanical screening, grit removal, and compaction systems designed to remove solids, debris, and abrasive particles from municipal and industrial wastewater.

By eliminating coarse materials at the beginning of the treatment process, mechanical systems protect pumps, tanks, biological reactors, and downstream filtration units, ensuring efficiency, reducing maintenance, and prolonging equipment life.

Why Mechanical Treatment Matters

  • Protects downstream equipment – prevents clogging, abrasion, and wear on pumps, membranes, and aeration systems.
  • Improves overall plant efficiency – reduces unplanned shutdowns and operational costs.
  • Removes coarse solids and grit – plastics, rags, wood, sand, gravel, and other heavy particles.
  • Compact and automated solutions – minimal operator intervention, low energy use, high reliability.
