SCUM SKIMMER SCUM SKIMMER

Suspended matter and scum generated from sewage and wastewater treatment plants, pumping stations, and water collection wells are the main causes of pipe blockages, poor transport, and serious odors. Rincon Technology Co., Ltd. removes scum from the upper part of the sedimentation tank. ‘Scum Skimmer’ We provide the optimal scum removal solution through our lineup and ‘Buildpit ACE’, which fundamentally crushes and aerates scum.

Scum Skimmer Series

1 PIPE SKIMMER

  • The pipe skimmer is the core equipment with the simplest structure and general purpose among Rincon Technology's Scum Removal Apparatus lineup.
  • This is a surface scum removal facility that effectively collects floating matter and scum floating on the upper surface of sedimentation ponds at sewage and wastewater treatment plants and water purification plants by using the rotation of the pipe and discharges them to the outside.
  • Since scum is removed simply by rotating the pipe body without any complicated mechanical devices, there are few minor malfunctions, and it has a very stable collection ability even in large-scale sedimentation ponds, making it the most widely used type in the field.

Scum Skimmer Series

2 HELICAL SKIMMER

  • It is a surface scum removal facility that collects suspended matter and scum floating on the surface of sedimentation ponds at sewage and wastewater treatment plants and water purification plants in one direction through the rotation of spiral blades and discharges them to the outside completely and continuously.
  • Zero power loss (High Efficiency): By omitting intermediate shafts and connecting parts, mechanical power loss is minimized and energy is used efficiently.
  • Excellent maintainability (Low Maintenance): The number of parts is small and the structure is very intuitive, preventing frequent breakdowns and dramatically reducing the cost and time required for maintenance and repairs.
  • Perfect scum collection: the spiral blades remove all scum from the water surface, reducing the water load on subsequent processes and protecting your equipment.

HRLICAL SKIMMER - 1 BLADE

This equipment is designed with a single helical wing structure to completely and continuously remove all scum from the water surface.

  • Power and maintenance innovations: We boldly eliminated the complex auxiliary shaft used in existing equipment and adopted a direct drive method that is directly connected to the drive motor (reducer). The biggest advantage is that it eliminates mechanical power loss and minimizes maintenance.

When the Buildpit ACE is operated, the dissolved oxygen (DO) in the storage tank rises rapidly, preventing rot due to anaerobization and fundamentally removing substances that cause odor.

  • Increased dissolved oxygen (DO): (Before installation) 0.2 ~ 0.4 (After installation) 6.2 ~ 8.8
  • Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) reduction: (Before installation) 1.6 mg/l (After installation) 0.0006 mg/l (almost complete removal)
  • Methyl mercaptan reduction: (Before installation) 0.0012 ppm (After installation) 0.0002 ppm
