Kenosha, WI-based Centrisys Corp., a North American manufacturer of decanter and thickening centrifuges and dewatering systems, has announced that shipping preparations are underway for an order for eight CS26-4 decanter centrifuges.

The order is from the Metro Wastewater Reclamation District in Denver. The new centrifuges will replace aging equipment and will support increased performance and capacity at the Robert W. Hite Treatment Facility, as the district moves into a new biological phosphorous removal process.

“As Denver moves to a biological phosphorus removal process, sludge becomes more difficult to dewater,” says Michael Kopper, president and chief executive officer of Centrisys.

“Only decanter centrifuges offering a smaller footprint design and higher capacity were considered. I am confident the upgrade to our CS26-4 decanter centrifuges, along with the biological phosphorus solution provided by our partner company CNP, will meet the facility’s needs for better performance, higher capacity, less maintenance, and a focus on service and support.”

Centrisys worked closely with Lakewood, CO, environmental consultants Brown and Caldwell on the plant’s new centrifuge design layout. All units will be designed, engineered, and built in the Kenosha, WI-based facilities.

The Centrisys CS26-4 decanter centrifuge is said to offer:

  • Smallest footprint of centrifuges in its size specification
  • Feed capacity up to 400gpm
  • Lowest installed combined HP (150HP) in its size specification
  • Increased solids handling, reduced polymer consumption
  • USA centrifuge service and repair facilities
  • Highest G-volume and torque capacity
