Celje is the third largest city in Slovenia and sits at the junction of the Savinja, Hudinja, Ložnica, and Voglajna rivers in the lower Savinja Valley. Serving a population of 85,000 people, the city’s waste water treatment plant (WWTP) used two progressive cavity (PC) pumps to feed a centrifuge with settled sludge. The abrasive nature of the sludge meant that the PC pumps suffered stator and rotor wear, leading to a drop in flow rates, as well as the need for regular maintenance downtime. Maintenance often took several hours to complete and required expensive spare parts.
