Sludge Removal Without Draining the Tank
Robotic Sludge Removal, Robotic Dredging, ROV Visual Inspection
At Sciphyn, robots offer a safe solution for sludge and sediment removal from tanks, ponds, and basins – inspections and 3D mapping while the site remains in full operation.
Floor-driving robots remove sludge from aeration basins, clarifiers and ponds with no bypass or shutdown. Sciphyn supplies robots, on-site dewatering and disposal as one turnkey service; one wastewater job removed 2,866 cubic yards of wet sludge with zero confined-space entries.
A submersible ROV takes ultrasonic thickness readings of a tank floor while it stays full and in service, paired with recorded video and a written report covering the data an inspector needs for NFPA and API standards. No shutdown and no confined-space entry.
Remotely operated vehicles evaluate and record the underwater structural condition of tanks and basins so a plant can inspect submerged structures without draining or sending in divers. Delivered as recorded video documentation the owner keeps for planning and compliance.
