Services
Wastewater Treatment
Our wastewater treatment solutions combine mechanical, biological, physical, and chemical processes to treat municipal and industrial effluents. Systems include Eco-SAF Submerged Aerated Filters and screening applications that reduce COD, BOD, and suspended solids. Serving power stations, livestock markets, and industrial facilities, our modular designs enable easy transport and installation for both permanent and temporary requirements.
Lamella Clarifiers
Compact Lamella Clarifiers use inclined plate technology to achieve 90% smaller footprints compared to traditional tanks. These systems remove suspended solids and settleable matter from wastewater, industrial effluents, and construction site run-off. Available with optional flocculation systems, they serve primary and tertiary treatment stages across diverse industries including food processing and water treatment plants.
Groundhog Agricultural
The Groundhog range provides mechanical slurry separation and umbilical handling systems for agricultural and anaerobic digestion projects. Developed with Severn Trent Water in the 1980s, these robust systems now operate globally. They separate digestate, manage slurry storage, and improve nutrient management efficiency for dairy farms and livestock operations through patented separation technology.
Hose Handling Systems
Our hose handling equipment includes industrial reelers, flaking systems, and ramps for layflat and rigid hoses. Designed for safe deployment and retrieval, these systems accommodate hoses up to 1200mm diameter for applications including groundwater abstraction, fracking, and offshore fluid transfer. Custom-engineered solutions ensure compatibility with chemical, fuel, and irrigation systems.
Engineering Services
We provide specialist welding, fabrication, and component refurbishment services for nuclear and industrial clients. Our multi-disciplinary team delivers bespoke solutions including container design, blast cleaning, and industrial painting. With 30+ years' experience, we support sectors requiring precision engineering for wastewater infrastructure, nuclear components, and custom machinery manufacturing.
Questions
What types of wastewater can your systems treat?
Our systems handle municipal wastewater, industrial trade effluents, domestic sewage, and construction site run-off. We treat high-strength effluents from cheese processing, power stations, and livestock markets using tailored biological and physical-chemical processes.
Do you provide temporary wastewater treatment solutions?
Yes, we offer modular Eco-SAF tanks, clarifiers, and pumping systems for hire. These skid-mounted units can be rapidly deployed in existing infrastructure for short or long-term projects including plant upgrades and emergency bypass systems.
How do Lamella Clarifiers save space?
Lamella technology uses inclined plates to increase settlement efficiency, requiring up to 90% less floor space than conventional tanks. This compact design makes them ideal for urban wastewater plants and facilities with limited space.
What agricultural slurry solutions do you offer?
Our Groundhog systems provide mechanical separation, umbilical slurry application, and digestate management. These include the Model 1200 Slurry Separator used globally for nutrient management in dairy farms and anaerobic digestion projects.
Can you supply custom-engineered hose handling equipment?
We design bespoke hose reelers, flaking systems, and ramps for diameters up to 1200mm. Systems accommodate chemical transfer, offshore operations, and irrigation applications, with options for remote-controlled deployment and automated winding.
