Sludge Dewatering

Not only water

Sludge dewatering packages, which are installed after a sludge thickening unit in a water or wastewater treatment plant, are used to recover water from sludge and reduce its volume.

Idroconsulting is provided with a wide range of equipment in order to obtain sludge with solid concentration up to 20%.

THICKNER

Sludge gravity thickener is a circular tank or basin equipped with a special slow mixer and with bottom slope to increase the sludge concentration by removing part of the free surface water.
Idroconsulting can design and supply the correct equipment to meet customer’s needs.

FILTER PRESS

Industrial filter press is used in solid-liquid separation processes with high performance in terms of low water content at discharge.
The sludge is squeezed between the filtering elements that can be easily opened to remove the solid.
Idroconsulting can support customers to find the best solution according to their needs and requirements.
