The portability of WM Dolphin’s system is ideally suited for event work and scenarios requiring rapid deployment. For example, in 2016 WM Dolphin was contacted by a large poultry processing facility to dewater finished biological sludge from the plant’s wastewater treatment retention ponds. Due to an upset condition, the ponds required immediate attention to prevent plant down time. The customer contacted WM Dolphin on a Friday, requesting a turnkey sludge dewatering, transportation, and disposal project as fast as the team could deliver it. The WM Dolphin team immediately began preparing and sourcing all necessary equipment.
Thanks to the team’s experience with rapid response situations, all primary process equipment was onsite by Monday morning, a mix tank arrived Tuesday morning, and by Wednesday morning, the system was fully operational. The first load of dewatered bio solids were delivered to a WM landfill on Wednesday. WM Dolphin was on site 24 hours per day, seven days per week for just over six weeks. During that time, the system averaged 95 gpm and approximately 20 hours per day of processing time, with no unplanned downtime. Over 1,800 tons of dewatered solids were sent to the landfill– requiring no additional treatment or solidification–providing roughly three years of operating space for the wastewater plant.
