Centrisys/CNP, located in Kenosha, Wisconsin, is collaboratively working with the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District (Milwaukee, Wisconsin), the Metro Wastewater Reclamation District of Denver (Denver, Colorado), the Madison Metropolitan Sewerage District (Madison, Wisconsin) and the Massachusetts Water Reclamation Authority (Boston, Massachusetts).
Together, they will perform Tailored Collaborative Research (TCR), a program of The Water Research Foundation (WRF), to demonstrate phosphorus removal and recovery potential of the CalPrex™ process at the Madison Metropolitan Sewerage District from September to November.
The TCR will collect high-quality data from the CalPrex™ process and allow the participating utilities to evaluate high-rate phosphorus recovery prior to anaerobic digestion and its positive effects on operations and maintenance. This will help the utilities better meet stringent biosolids regulations and simultaneously mitigate operations and maintenance issues related to phosphorus levels in sludge. A peer review of the findings will be conducted and the results will be disseminated to industry professionals through the WRF LIFT Link platform.
Phosphorus (P) removal and recovery is one of the hottest topics in the wastewater biosolids industry today. Tightening regulations for both land applications and the sale of biosolids have water reclamation professionals eager to evaluate technologies that remove nuisance phosphorus from biosolids in a cost-effective and sustainable manner.

With eight purchase orders in the last 3 months, the company’s sludge thickener has been used in several wastewater treatment facilities and wineries.
In the last few years, the U.S. has undergone a series of innovations and technology advancements. These changes have impacted several industries, leading them to save energy and resources. One such industry is wastewater treatment. Seven wastewater treatment plants in San Antonio, TX; Lincoln, NE; Belvidere, IL; Grandville, MI; Fargo, ND; University of Florida, Beijing airport and an East coast winery have benefited from the Centrisys/CNP THK sludge thickener. It offers proven performance with lower life cycle costs, less or zero polymer, higher G-volume for higher capacity and less redundancy, as well as up to 50% less power consumption compared to standard dewatering centrifuges.
“I’m surprised it’s taken this long for other treatment plants to see the value of this piece of equipment. The Kenosha WWTP (Wastewater Treatment Plant) installed our first THK200 in 2011. This one machine replaced four DAFT units, operated 24/7 using no polymer and achieved 5% TS cake and 95% capture. In 2015, we upgraded our plant process and now have an additional THK200 for primary sludge. With this THK, we doubled our solids concentration and cut in half the amount of water sent to the digesters,” said Melissa Arnot, P.E. Director of Operations at Kenosha Water Utility.
The basis of the THK design highlights what Centrisys is best known for – centrifuges. This sludge thickener is not a modified dewatering centrifuge, which is typically what happens when a conventional dewatering centrifuge is used for thickening sludge. The THK sludge thickener is designed and built specifically to thicken both primary and waste activated sludge using the fundamental principles of a centrifuge, DAFT and Rotary Drum Thickener.
According to Centrisys/ CNP’s CEO, Michael Kopper, “Equipment in this industry should last for decades. Those decision makers who understand the increasing importance of lower lifecycle costs and higher process efficiencies are clearly making the right choices for their plants and ultimately rate payers and our environment.”

Centrisys/CNP (Kenosha, WI), a leader in decanter centrifuge technology and systems for nutrient recovery and sludge optimization, has announced their exclusive distributorship for the Passavant hydrograv adapt System in North America (U.S. patent pending).
Unlike fixed inlet structures for secondary clarifiers, the Passavant hydrograv adapt System consistently and continuously adjusts to current loading in a clarifier. If the loads are low, the hydrograv adapt automatically shifts the inlet elevation and opening height to a low position, introducing the mixed liquor below the sludge blanket. As the loads increase, the hydrograv adapt system shifts itself to a higher elevation and opening height, ensuring ideal hydraulic conditions for the operation of the secondary clarifiers and avoiding sludge overflow.
Benefits of the Passavant hydrograv adapt System include improved process stability of secondary clarification, a reduction of effluent suspended solids to usually less than 3 mg/L, improved particulate phosphorus removal, improved clarification capacity from hydraulic optimization and overall low maintenance requirements.
At WEFTEC 2018, Dr. Martin Armbruster, the Managing Director and founder of hydrograv GmbH and the inventor of the hydrograv adapt system, will co-present on the topic of “Stress Testing of a Secondary Clarifier with an Adaptive Inlet Structure.” His expertise in the field of clarifier CFD simulation includes optimization and practical engineering for more than 1,000 clarifiers in 200+ treatment plants worldwide. His experience in improving hydraulic efficiency of water management systems is based on 500+ hydrograv® with CFD simulations installations. The seminar will take place on Wednesday, October 3 at 1:50 p.m. in room 239.

Centrisys/CNP (booth #4921) will showcase their “More with Less” approach to innovation in the areas of sludge and biosolids management – including thickening, dewatering, resource intensification and nutrient recovery at WEFTEC 2018, October 1-3 in New Orleans.
Centrisys will introduce their new CS6-4 dewatering centrifuge, their smallest centrifuge to date. The CS6-4 bridges the gap between benchtop studies and full-scale installations. The CS6-4 continuously treats flows from 4 to 10 gpm, making this centrifuge a better alternative to a conventional laboratory centrifuge, which processes samples in batches. The CS6-4 provides scalable solid-liquid separation data to move R&D projects forward.
“We introduced the CS-6 into our equipment portfolio because so many of our customers requested it; there was a need and we simply provided a solution” Michael Kopper, CEO Centrisys/CNP.
Additionally, Centrisys will discuss their latest exclusive distributorship for the Passavant® hydrograv® adapt System in North America (U.S. patent pending). Unlike traditional inlet structures for secondary clarifiers, with the hydrograv adapt System, mixed liquor is introduced near the bottom of the clarifier, below the sludge blanket. The inlet elevation and opening height adjusts to flow conditions so it is always operating in ideal hydraulic conditions.
Centrisys will hold an in-booth discussion with Dr. Armbruster, the Managing Director and founder of hydrograv GmbH and the inventor of the hydrograv adapt system, on Tuesday, October 2 at 2 p.m. Additionally, Centrisys/CNP equipment and processes will be highlighted in the following seminars at WEFTEC 2018:
