Two years after the installation of the first PROSTEP, this new bar screen 100% FB Procédés continues to make its way.

We continue to improve its reliability and optimize its efficiency in line with the feedback from operators and our own experiences. Before looking to the future, we first aim to fully satisfy our customers in small-scale installations, as is the case at this wastewater treatment plant in Vendée.

The waste bar screen is fed by backflow in an air channel. The refuse is discharged into a compaction screw, which returns the waste to a bin located at the «Natural Terrain» via a downflow chute.

In the event of an incident on the machine bar screen, the effluent is diverted into a bypass channel equipped with a manual screen, directly connected to a specific auger on the compaction screw.
