Waste not, want not: Lagoon cleaning with a twist!

A solid plan for solids removal.

Removing sludge solids buildup from a lagoon treatment system offers numerous benefits that enhance overall efficiency and environmental health. It improves the lagoon’s capacity to treat wastewater by increasing aeration and promoting better microbial activity, leading to more effective pollutant removal. Regular sludge removal minimizes chance odors and reduces the risk of harmful algal blooms, which can threaten aquatic life. It also prevents potential structural damage to the lagoon, extending its lifespan and reducing lifecycle maintenance costs. Managing your sludge effectively can facilitate nutrient recovery, turning waste into valuable resources, promoting a sustainable and circular economy.

Rethink your reuse options.

Once sludge solids are removed from a lagoon treatment system, several disposal options are available. One common method is land application, where the treated sludge is used as a soil amendment or fertilizer, enriching agricultural land with nutrients. Another option is composting, which can further stabilize the material and create a valuable organic product for landscaping and gardening. Additionally, sludge can be incinerated, reducing its volume and generating energy, although this requires careful management of emissions. Lastly, some facilities may opt for landfill disposal, ensuring that the sludge is properly contained to prevent environmental contamination. Each option should be evaluated based on regulatory compliance and environmental impact.

The essential role of lagoon cleaning.

Municipal lagoon cleaning is an important process that helps keep our water systems healthy. When lagoons are cleaned, harmful pollutants and waste are removed, which improves water quality. This benefits the environment by protecting fish and other wildlife that rely on clean water. Additionally, clean lagoons can reduce unpleasant odors and make the area more pleasant for nearby communities. Regular cleaning also helps prevent flooding by ensuring that water can flow freely. Overall, maintaining clean lagoons supports public health, enhances local ecosystems, and creates a better living environment for everyone. It’s a vital step towards a cleaner and healthier future.

Equipped to get it done.

Unique equipment for each lagoon.

Crawler
Loading Pipe

Crawler

Our lagoon crawler is specifically designed to stir up the heavy solids on the bottom of a lagoon. The jet propulsion system enables the unit to be remote controlled.

Loading Pipe

Safely loading in remote areas can be a challenge. The overhead loading pipe keeps our driver’s feet on solid ground. Safely enabling the observation of the tank loading.

Pumps ...

Each lagoon requires a mix of diffenent tools for a fast effective cleaning:

lagoon pumps - help move material
screening unit - remove the trash
dewatering - reduce transport and add disposal options
solids mover - safely move the solids in the lagoon
