Sludge Pumping
Process sludge pumping
Specialized solutions for the industrial sector
Process sludge pumping is an essential operation in many industrial sectors where activities generate liquid, semi-liquid, or solids-laden residues. These sludges, resulting from manufacturing, processing, or treatment operations, must be managed rigorously to ensure operational continuity, environmental compliance, and facility safety.
Sanivac offers a specialized process sludge pumping service tailored to the realities of the industrial environment. Thanks to our fleet of high-capacity vacuum trucks and tanker trucks, we provide complete, safe, and compliant handling, whether for scheduled maintenance or emergency response.
Industrial sludge pumping
Adapted to a wide variety of processes
Process sludges can vary considerably depending on the industry sector, the materials processed, and the equipment used. Sanivac provides pumping services for different types of industrial sludge, including :
- sludge resulting from manufacturing or processing operations,
- sludge from industrial wastewater treatment,
- boues chargées en sédiments ou matières solides,
- liquid or semi-liquid sludge from basins, tanks, or reactors,
- industrial cleaning residues and wash water.
Our pumping methods are adjusted based on consistency, volume, and operational constraints to ensure efficient extraction without damaging the installations.

Pumping and cleaning of process installations
Maintain performance and prevent shutdowns
Over time, sludge accumulates in basins, tanks, piping, and process equipment, which can reduce capacity, impair system efficiency, and lead to production shutdowns.
Sanivac offers combined pumping and cleaning services, including :
- the cleaning of process basins,
- the cleaning of industrial tanks and reservoirs,
- the cleaning of process-related piping,
- the removal of compacted accumulations.
These interventions help restore system performance, extend equipment service life, and reduce the risk of overflows or failures.
