Acid-proof mixers made by Landia are successfully homogenizing sludge at the Wheal Jane Mine water treatment plant near Truro in Cornwall, which is managed by United Utilities

Acid-proof mixers made by Landia are successfully homogenizing sludge at the Wheal Jane Mine water treatment plant near Truro in Cornwall, which is managed by United Utilities, on behalf of The Environment Agency At this largest controllable and instrumented plant of its type in Europe, Landia mixers are part of a passive treatment system, which specifically addresses waste management and bioremediation to prevent pollution of fresh and coastal waters

Installed in the pre-reaction chambers and sludge holding tanks, the Landia mixers help purify effluent, which as part of a three-pronged treatment scheme, ensures the removal of ferric hydroxide/oxyhydroxide, arsenic, zinc, copper, cadmium, iron and manganese.

Customised for this demanding application with a specially adapted sealing system, Landia mixers are meeting all efficiency requirements, yet are very low on energy consumption.

As well as this installation at Wheal Jane in Cornwall, long-shaft chopper pumps from Landia are also in action at the UK's first dung-fired power station at Holsworthy in nearby Devon.
