Description
The manufactures of centrifuges often have no particular expertese in water and wastewater. They focus upon the mechanical aspects of the centrifuge. I take a holestic approach, to get the operators to understand how the treatment process affects the centrifuge. Further, understanding what is happening inside the centrifuge makes diagnosis of process problems easier.
