A new generation sequencing batch reactor (SBR) system has been developed by ITT Sanitaire (UK) in partnership with AUMA SIPOS. The technology advancement is designed to meet the variable speed requirements of SBR decant operations at wastewater treatment plants. The ABJ SBR decanter upgrade by ITT Sanitaire incorporates AUMA SIPOS Flash 5 actuators. The solution, which moves away from external componentry to integrate intelligent functions within the actuator, offers a number of user benefits. Among the technology enhancements provided is advanced data feedback with increased detail of valve functionality.
