Tow-Bro® Unitube Sludge Removal System

The Tow-Bro® Unitube header provides the ultimate in rapid, uniform removal of final clarifier flocculent sludges. It can be installed in a new facility or retrofit for better performance in an existing one.

The Tow-Bro® Unitube sludge removal header has a rectangular shaped arm with a tapered design for a uniform withdrawal velocity to prevent build-up in the header or orifice clogging.  This unique design, proven in hundreds of installations as well as in exhaustive testing programs, assures effective results, simple operation, less maintenance requirements, and substantial construction and energy cost savings.

Features and Benefits

  • Rapid sludge removal and efficiency over a full range of flows means a fresher sludge, less chance for septicity, reduced aeration requirements, and prevention of phosphate release.
  • Maximum solids concentration and less required pumping means that aeration basins and solids handling systems can be designed and operated for the minimums.  
  • Minimum sludge irritation is achieved through a gentle removal action and a minimum of underwater disturbance.
  • Balanced hydraulic design removes settled solids in proportion to the area covered over a wide range of flows and permits low sludge blankets to be maintained for cleaner effluents.
  • Cost savings are achieved through construction simplification and lower aeration and torque requirements.
  • Flexible operation and maintenance is achieved through the simplicity of design.
