Filtering out phosphorus from wastewater helps save energy and costs in modern treatment plants. LINAK® actuator solutions help optimise the process of extracting the phosphorus by reliably automating the valves involved.
To be able to control the treatment process in a modern wastewater plant, a number of actuators are needed for reliable valve control. Automating and easily controlling valves calls for the right set-up, and LINAK has come up with an optimal actuator solution for this. It is extremely durable, easy to control (both automatically and manually) and even easier to install.
At the Marselisborg wastewater facility near Aarhus, Denmark, a system consisting of a decanter centrifuge, precipitation tanks, and recovery reactors extracts phosphorus from the water. This helps the plant save energy during the biological treatment. It also prevents sediments from building inside pipes, slowing down the process and ultimately destroying the pipes.
LINAK® actuators have an important role to play in controlling the outlet of reject water from the decanter centrifuge and into the precipitation tanks. It is critical that this process runs reliably to ensure an optimal extraction of phosphorus.
LINAK electric actuators help facilitate the valves, making this process possible. They are tested to withstand even the harshest environments – for years. With specially designed mounting brackets (designed for ISO flanges F07 and F10) they are made extremely easy to integrate and to install.
