A sewage tank cleaning robot is a cutting-edge, unmanned cleaning solution that really ramps up the efficiency of sludge removal while also slashing operational costs. When you stack it up against manual cleaning, this robot can enhance efficiency by as much as three times and reduce overall operating expenses by around 40%. It’s truly a game-changer for modern wastewater management and industrial maintenance!
These robots combine high‑definition camera navigation, strong sludge suction, remote control, and a waterproof IP68 design for safe, reliable performance in harsh environments.

Sewage Tank Cleaning Robot Customer Success Stories (Real Value Delivered)

Chile Industrial Wastewater Plant
A wastewater treatment plant in Chile deployed YG’s sewage tank cleaning robot. They cleaned three large sedimentation tanks in just 3 days—down from 25—using camera navigation for precise sludge removal. Water quality improved and worker safety risks were eliminated.
Texas Oil Storage Facility
In Texas, a crude oil storage center introduced the robot to clear heavy sludge. Cleaning time was reduced from 25 days to 10 days, and an entirely unmanned operation eliminated personnel risk.
Sewage Tank Cleaning Robot Frequently Asked Questions

Usually not. A lot of cleaning tasks can continue without interrupting plant operations, which helps to minimize expensive downtime.
Routine checks on pumps, cameras, and crawler systems are sufficient. Low maintenance keeps the overall cost down.
Cleaning cycles can differ based on how thick the sludge is and the size of the tank, but generally, robots can get the job done 2 to 3 times faster than doing it by hand.
