The purpose of the project was to replace three dated coarse screens that provide protection to the pumps. This project was part of an upgrade scheme that aimed to prevent flooding.

As SPIRAC Australia celebrates thirty years in business, we take this opportunity to thank all of our customers and suppliers whose loyal support has contributed to SPIRAC’s growth. 

A typical sewage treatment plant uses a range of treatment processes to produce recycled water and biosolids. In wastewater treatment, the process can be divided into four steps: pretreatment, primary, secondary and tertiary treatments.

The goal of this project was to improve screening to help protect the pumps downstream, the project also responded to concerns raised by local residents regarding odours and noise from the existing screens, which are located outside the main pumping station building. To help address these concerns the equipment is placed in a new soundproof and odour controlled building.
