Jefferson Parish Wastewater Treatment Plant faced challenges moving sludge through confined facility spaces. Serpentix conveyors were installed to navigate tight curves, steep inclines, and complex routing requirements. The system improved efficiency, reduced handling issues, and enhanced long-term reliability for municipal wastewater operations.
Three-dimensional modular conveyors with flex-end discharge enabled precise truck loading
88' conveyor with helical incline path and 30' Flex End conveyor on upper deck
32' conveyor inclined 42° for direct truck discharge
60' conveyor repurposed for parts
Marrero and Bridge City plants also equipped with belt press–fed Serpentix systems
Eliminated reliance on unpermitted sludge lagoons
Enabled high-capacity sludge dewatering and landfilling
Supported EPA compliance and regional wastewater modernization
Boosted effluent transfer into Mississippi River to protect Lake Pontchartrain estuary
Contributed to $1B infrastructure transformation and sustainable growth planning
Industry: Water & Wastewater / Municipal Infrastructure
Location: Jefferson Parish, Louisiana
Systems Used: Serpentix Continuous Path Conveyors at Harvey, Marrero, Bridge City, East Jefferson, and formerly West Napoleon plants
Application: Sludge handling and elevation from belt presses to truck loadout, replacing unpermitted sludge lagoons
Overloaded, uncoordinated treatment facilities from decades of piecemeal construction
EPA-ordered closure of sludge lagoons
Need for long-term infrastructure master planning to support 1.2M residents
Tight space constraints in newly constructed dewatering facilities
Three-dimensional modular conveyors with flex-end discharge enabled precise truck loading
Harvey plant: 88′ conveyor with helical incline path and 30′ Flex End conveyor on upper deck
East Jefferson: 32′ conveyor inclined 42° for direct truck discharge
West Napoleon (retired): 60′ conveyor repurposed for parts
Marrero and Bridge City plants also equipped with belt press–fed Serpentix systems
Eliminated reliance on unpermitted sludge lagoons
Enabled high-capacity sludge dewatering and landfilling
Supported EPA compliance and regional wastewater modernization
Boosted effluent transfer into Mississippi River to protect Lake Pontchartrain estuary
