Ford Hall Company's
Algae Sweep Automation
Algae Sweep Automation™ is a unique system of spring-loaded brushes that attach to the skimmer arm of water and waster water clarifiers or thickeners in order to clean algae and debris from effluent surfaces. The Algae Sweep system has over 50 points of flexibility and adjustment to ensure the thorough cleaning of all weir, baffle, channel and spillway surfaces; no matter how irregular those surfaces may be.
Algae Sweep Automation has been on every major clarifier manufacturer in the United States. Engineers regularly design the ASA system into new municipal or industrial wastewater treatment plant projects and the Algae Sweep can also be retrofitted to existing clarifiers or thickeners.
 
Presently, the Ford Hall Company has nearly
1500 Algae Sweep units installed in the
United States and Canada.
15 years of successful business
in the wastewater industry.
