ETP Sludge Slurry Pumps
Effluent treatment plants handle thick, semi-solid sludge and fibrous slurry that choke standard pumps. HET non-clog slurry submersible pumps are engineered for reliable ETP sludge and effluent handling.

The ETP Sludge Challenge
ETP sludge is thick, semi-solid and often fibrous, with stringy material that clogs conventional pumps. Reliable sludge transfer and recycling are essential to plant operation.
What You Are Pumping
ETP sludge is semi-solid, fibrous and variable, with stringy matter and biological solids. Effluent slurry concentration changes through treatment stages.
Why It Is Difficult
Clogging from fibrous and stringy solids is the primary challenge, followed by reliable handling of thick semi-solid sludge across treatment stages.
The HET Solution for This Application

NSEW — Slurry / Non-Clog Submersible Pump
Why HET for This Duty
HET non-clog slurry submersible pumps are engineered for fibrous and semi-solid ETP sludge, with application-based selection and performance testing before delivery.
Selection Considerations
Confirm flow, head, sludge type and fibrous content. Material selection is matched to effluent chemistry. For high-head sludge transfer, the SSSEW family may be considered.
