Abstract
A pump and submersible solids processing arrangement includes a pump, having a suction inlet and discharge, and a submersible solids processing arrangement positioned in fluid communication with the suction inlet of the pump and being structured to macerate larger solids and matter that is entrained in a fluid to thereby reduce the size of the solids prior to entry of the fluid and solids into the inlet of the pump, the arrangement further including macerating members the speed and arrangement of which are selectively determinable or adjustable, and the arrangement further comprising an agitator arrangement for directing solids into the submersible solids processing arrangement.
