Zickert Rotating Scraper

A rotating scraper for circular settling tanks 

Remove sludge and surface scum from circular wastewater treatment settling tanks.

MANUFACTURER 

Nordic Water Products

APPLICATION

  • New wastewater treatment plants
  • Retrofit to existing circular sedimentation tanks
  • Water purification plants
  • Industrial process wastewater treatment plants

ADVANTAGES

  • Very low profile and a fixed electrical motor point at tank wall, therefore is simple to cover for odour control and uses much less headspace
  • When covered for odour control, very low cover profile means ~80% less air needs to be scrubbed for odour
  • Does not require a bridge, walkway or hand rail, which makes the it economical for large tanks 

The Zickert Rotating Sludge Scraper offers major energy, operating and maintenance savings compared to rotating bridges.


It has a lower profile design, which reduces the space under odour control covers, so there is less air to be purified and energy costs are reduced. The circular tank scraper’s electric drive is located on the perimeter tank wall with a static electrical connection point meaning no sliprings are needed.  With few moving parts, the Zickert Rotating Sludge Scraper requires less frequent maintenance and is less subject to mechanical wear than conventional bridge scrapers.


It is suitable for retrofitting to both municipal and industrial circular scrapers, as well as for new installations.
