We take immense pride in sharing a remarkable success story of AMCON INC. and our local distributor in the Philippines. Together, we achieved a significant milestone by selling and replacing the existing decanter system with the AMCON’s VOLUTE™ in the wastewater treatment facilities of a prominent global beverage company. This transition occurred across seven factories in the Philippines.

VOLUTE™ Installed

Their Problems

• Their decanter units have high power consumption due to high-speed operation. Power costs within the Philippines can be significant, therefore, lowering this cost would mean great savings for their factories.
• Maintenance and Servicing – local servicing was difficult to conduct to begin with, and on top of such difficulties, the replacement of certain components was taking an unnecessarily long time. Therefore, the down time of the machines would at times be as long as 4 months.

AMCON’s Solution

VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press was highly evaluated for the following advantages over conventional centrifugal dewatering machines, leading to its adoption as a replacement at seven plants across the Philippines.

Filtrate & Sludge cake

1. Power Cost Reduction
   –   The newly installed Volute dewatering machine  can significantly reduce the power consumption – roughly down to a 1/10 of the previous decanter machines. This means there will be about 3USD / day in power cost savings.
2. Ease of Operation
   –  Our end-users at different factories are satisfied with our machines’ performance in terms of easy operation and minimal maintenance requirements.
   Due to the ease of operation and maintenance, the operators have more time to conduct other tasks instead of having to monitor our machines for operation on an hourly basis. They only need to check the level of polymer solution in the tank and refill it if necessary as well as to check the sludge cake bin and replace it if already full.
3. After-Sales Support
   –  Our team has paid a visit to the various installation sites at least once after commissioning to date. We conduct such visitations to assure our customers of the top-notch customer service we provide, and to reassure them of our unwavering commitment to after-sales customer satisfaction.
