Enhanced Biosolids Handling with Continuous Serpentix Conveyor Systems
Location: Pine Hill Run, Maryland
The Pine Hill Run Wastewater Treatment Plant needed an efficient system to move biosolids through its facility. Serpentix conveyors were installed to navigate steep inclines and confined areas while providing continuous and reliable transport. The installation reduced operational challenges, minimized manual handling, and improved the overall efficiency of plant operations.
Challenges
Serpentix Solutions
Conveyor hauled ~15 tons/hour of screened gypsum waste via 40° incline and 90° helical turn into elevated processing building

Convoluted belt flattened at discharge for even feed into mixing and drying stages
Self-cleaning design ensured minimal residue and maintenance
Results
~100% recovery of original waste pile + reuse of rejected products
