Hapman Showcases Bulk Material Handling Equipment at WEFTEC

Hapman will exhibit its custom bulk material handling equipment at WEFTEC 2026 in New Orleans, Louisiana, from September 28-30. At Booth 8149, the company will showcase the TubePro™ Tubular Drag Conveyor, Solidquid^® Liquid/Solid System, and PosiPro^® Feeder, which are specifically engineered to enhance efficiency, safety, and regulatory compliance across wastewater treatment processes.

The TubePro™ Tubular Drag Conveyor features a fully enclosed, dust-tight design for the zero-emission transport of challenging wastewater materials, promoting a safer work environment for facility operators. The Solidquid^® system automates chemical dosing processes, such as flocculant addition, providing precise measurement, efficient mixing, and consistent water quality outcomes while reducing the need for manual intervention. Additionally, the PosiPro^® Feeder offers a heavy-duty, customizable design with configurable screws and nozzles to reliably handle harsh dry bulk materials, minimizing operational downtime.

Additional Context
This section provides technological and market background not explicitly detailed in the original release.

Wastewater treatment facilities operate in harsh, high-moisture environments where equipment is subjected to severe abrasion and chemical corrosion. Safely transporting bulk materials—such as hydrated lime, powdered activated carbon (PAC), dry polymers, or dewatered sludge cake—requires robust, tightly sealed systems to prevent hazardous dust exposure and spills. Enclosed tubular drag conveyors and automated powder-to-liquid mixing systems reduce manual interventions, mitigate the risk of airborne particulates, and ensure highly precise chemical dosing. These factors are critical for modern treatment plants aiming to optimize chemical usage, lower maintenance costs, and comply with increasingly stringent environmental and workplace safety regulations.
