Bejing Ben-Hua provides accurate sludge blanket level measurement for Taihe Sewage Treatment Plant in Shanghai

Printer-Friendly Version

Bejing Ben-Hua (BBH), Pulsar Measurement distributors in China, were approached by Taihe Sewage Treatment Plant in Shanghai for help with sludge level measurement on one of their sedimentation tanks. Sedimentation tanks allow suspended particles to settle out of water or wastewater as it flows slowly through the tank and aids the purification process.

The customer required a very accurate and reliable sludge level sensor for this application to monitor sludge level as it is one of the key parameters for the plant's control system. Floc is always present in the tank and could not be monitored accurately with the existing sludge level sensor, so they contacted BBH for help.

Accurate Sludge Tank Level Measurement

Engineers from BBH visited the site and conducted a trial with Pulsar Measurement’s Sludge Finder 2 (SF2) system for sludge blanket measurement. During the trial, the readings from the Sludge Finder 2 were cross checked and verified with an underwater high-resolution camera. There was a good correlation between the SF2 readings and manual level measurement with the help of the underwater camera.

As a result of the trial and expert knowledge shown by Bejing Ben-Hua, the customer gained the accurate and reliable readings they were looking for and were very satisfied with the product. They decided to replace the existing measurement unit with a Pulsar Measurement Sludge Finder 2 measurement system.

Bejing Ben-Hua was established in 2009 and is based in China. They focus on bringing high-quality instruments and overall solutions for domestic sewage plants and water purification plants. The find a local Pulsar Measurement partner in your region, visit the Pulsar Measurement partner locator.
