Water Quality Testing and Monitoring

Roperhurst: a UK in-house designer, manufacturer and installer of fume and odour control treatment plant and equipment, chemical storage vessels, dosing and delivery systems. Since 1976 Roperhurst has worked with a range of customers, big and small, global and local, on specialist plastic and environmental engineering projects. Roperhurst is quality certified to ISO9001:2015, SSIP approved and a long-standing member of BESA. Fume/odour: Roperhurst delivers a comprehensive proven range of solutions including catalytic iron filters, carbon absorbers, bio-filters, bio-scrubbers, biogas and chemical scrubbers. Utilising either organic or synthetic media filled units, all designed and built at our UK manufacturing facility, and each offering a green, smart and simple-to-operate solution to your fume, odour and VOC problems. Chemical storage/dosing/delivery: Roperhurst offers bespoke tanks and vessels for the safe long-term storage of chemicals, each specifically matched to meet your individual needs. Additionally, we fabricate and install dosing cabinets and day tanks with dual containment delivery pipework, all designed to dispense chemicals safely to the point of consumption. Delivery ductwork: Plastic ductwork for dealing with fume/odours created by chemical, biological or radiological processes have a high level of inherent risk.  This means that you need assurance that the ductwork will be fabricated correctly and installed competently. The UK standard for fabrication and installation of plastic ductwork is DW154, published by BESA, the Building Engineering Services Association (formerly HVCA).  Roperhurst is a UK market leader in this field: Roperhurst’s founder, Graham Handley, chaired the HVCA committee that wrote the 1st edition of DW154 in 2000. Roperhurst continues to work closely with BESA to improve standards. Roperhurst, as a BESA plastic ductwork specialist, ensures that our manufacturing and site work is regularly audited by external specialists to ensure that our work meets all current standards. Roperhurst is one of the few plastic ductwork specialists with its own in-house fibreglass division and specialist installation and testing teams. At Roperhurst we don’t need to rely on sub-contractors to produce elements of the project, which can be a cause of quality and compliance issues. Our plastics fabricator welders are time served and certified to BS EN 13067, and our laminators have been assessed under BS 4994.

SEEPEX is a leading worldwide specialist in the design, manufacture and application of progressive cavity pumps, macerators and digital solutions which optimise uptime and reduce downtime to give an optimal TOTEX solution. Our products and expertise are applied in most applications in the wastewater industry wherever thin to highly viscous and high % DS media is conveyed. Each solution is custom-configured to suit our customers’ requirements. Pump Technology 4.0 SEEPEX Digital Solutions incorporating the Pump Monitor turn the progressive cavity pump into an intelligent field device, operating in a networked system of smart products, services and processes. SEEPEX cloud-based service provides online remote monitoring and management of the pumps and process. Data collection and advanced analytics enable process and pump optimisation and reduce inspection, downtime and operating costs, facilitating predictive maintenance and timely delivery of spare parts to improve overall equipment and plant efficiency. Unlocking the Power of Digital Our latest innovation, the most intelligent progressive cavity pump in the world, allows remote adjustment to maintain pump performance without onsite manual intervention. With SEEPEX unique SCT AutoAdjust technology, combined with our digital solutions, site visits for maintenance are eliminated and access to otherwise hard to reach pump installations can be carried out remotely. Energy Efficient Long Distance Pumping of Dewatered Sludge Our dewatered sludge handling solutions include Smart Air Injection (SAI) technology, an energy efficient system delivering energy savings of approximately 40% by combining a progressive cavity pump with pneumatic dense phase conveying to transport 14-40% DS sludge over long distances up to 1,000 meters. This alternative to conventional technologies has proven to significantly reduce operational (energy, spare parts and downtime) and total investment costs. Patented Solutions for Smart Maintenance. Fast and Simple. SEEPEX continues to extend its world class portfolio of maintain-in-place technologies for pumps with capacities up to 300m3/hr and 48 bar, able to handle flowable to highly viscous products with a high % DS content. The new patented BNM range has been designed to simplify customers’ maintenance and can reduce maintenance time by up to 80% with a significant reduction in related costs. SEEPEX latest ease of maintenance solution for big pumps complements our Smart Conveying Technology (SCT), launched in 2008 and still setting standards in the maintenance of smaller standard progressive cavity pumps, and Drive Joint Access (DJA) technology for open hopper pumps. All of these patented solutions increase uptime and plant availability.
