All About Submersible Sewage Pumps What is sewage treatment? Sewage treatment is the process of removing contaminants from municipal waste water, containing mainly household sewage plus some industrial waste water. Physical, chemical, and biological processes are used to remove contaminants and produce treated waste water that is safe enough for release to the environment. A by-product of sewage treatment is a semi-solid waste or slurry, called sewage sludge. The sludge has to undergo further treatment before being suitable for disposal or application to land.
What are the classes of submersible pumps? There are typically three classes of submersible pumps that exist. 1. Smaller Submersible Pumps This type of submersible pump is used for light duty & for domestic applications. 2. Larger Submersible Pumps This type of submersible pump is used in industrial and municipal applications. They are used to pump sewage as well as all types of industrial waste water.
