Municipal Water Treatment
WesTech has built a solid reputation that extends more than 50 years in providing municipal wastewater treatment solutions. We start with the big picture to create value and ensure success for engineers, contractors, and plant operators. Our customers praise not only the quality of WesTech equipment, but also the overall experience of working with our teams.
Fast Response
WesTech makes sure you receive all the details you need for your project design in a fast and responsive manner. Our detailed process calculations, drawings, and custom specifications help you get your project done faster.
Ease of Installation
With thousands of installations throughout the world, we have gained the knowledge necessary to design equipment and provide support so that each installation goes as smoothly as possible. Contractors get full support with equipment installation and start-up.
Quality Equipment
With WesTech’s quality systems, plant operators enjoy equipment with longer lifecycles and lower maintenance costs. Equipment components are shop assembled prior to shipment to the job site. This simple step results in trouble-free construction and successful start-ups.
Municipal Wastewater Solutions
Anaerobic Wastewater Digester Systems
Anaerobic wastewater digester systems are a collection of processes by which microorganisms break down biodegradable material in the absence of oxygen. Anaerobic digestion, a simple process, can greatly reduce the amount of organic matter that might otherwise be destined to be dumped at sea, dumped in landfills, or burned in incinerators.
Whether for waste-to-energy or for conditioning of biosolids prior to disposal, WesTech offers complete digestion systems. WesTech’s systems provide effective and reliable solids storage, heating, and mixing of biosolids, as well as the capture of biogas to convert into usable energy.
Biological Treatment
A well-designed wastewater plant starts with your effluent requirements and an energy-efficient biological process. WesTech has multiple biological process options to match your application and preference. From trickling filters to oxidation ditches, WesTech’s biological process equipment will give you the effluent quality you need and the foundation for a successful wastewater plant.
Municipal Clarification
WesTech’s primary and secondary clarifiers are synonymous with innovative solutions that provide the flocculation, sedimentation, and clarification processes necessary to produce quality effluent that meets your applications’ needs and regulatory requirements.
Primary Clarification
In primary clarification, a portion of the suspended solids and organic matter is removed from the wastewater. This removal is usually accomplished with physical operations such as sedimentation. The effluent from primary clarification will ordinarily contain organic matter and have notable BOD. The principle function of primary clarification is to be a precursor to secondary clarification.
Following primary clarification, the treated water is suitable for many agricultural and industrial uses. However, it will require further treatment to be suitable for municipal uses.
Secondary Clarification
We offer a variety of options for secondary clarification – a necessary step for municipal applications where organic matter and BOD in waters from primary clarifiers must be removed. WesTech provides a range of solutions to meet this need, including conventional layouts with separate flocculation and clarification, and combination units such as solids contact clarifiers and high-rate processes that can squeeze into smaller footprints
Combined Sewer Overflow
WesTech offers combined sewer overflow (CSO) equipment, which greatly helps communities where excessive rain events cause the sewer system to be overwhelmed. WesTech provides multiple solutions that will optimize your collection and retention facilities and reduce the contaminants released during combined sewer overflow events.
Headworks
Effectively screening inorganics and removing grit improves the effectiveness of your downstream processes and your equipment’s longevity. The more debris and grit you can remove, the more efficient your downstream equipment and processes will become. WesTech’s experience and service-driven approach will help you find the right solutions and get the most out of your headworks while saving time and money.
Tertiary Treatment
With growing demand for high-quality effluent and the reuse of treated wastewater, WesTech has your solution. WesTech offers a full range of tertiary treatment equipment for new construction, plant upgrades, and in-basin retrofits.
Wastewater Thickening
Thickeners improve the operation of your digestion process. WesTech’s gravity thickeners and rotary drum thickeners have a proven history. For biological nutrient removal applications or sites with limited area, dissolved air flotation thickeners offer many advantages.
