Automated Sludge Press (ASP) for Filter Press Replacement - Water and Wastewater - Water Filtration and Separation
Filter Press is a traditional technology for handling sludge dewatering, suffering from intensive labor requirement, Filter Press users are looking for better alternatives. There are applications where this technology can`t easily be replaced, like fine minerals production, that still tolerates Filter Press drawbacks, but for most of the small to medium applications Cequesta Water can offer a viable alternative. Each Filter Press installation requires careful pre-engineering including process, mechanical, electrical and civil, on the other hand the ASP is completely a pre-engineered system; this alone saves about $15,000 per project, making the ASP project less expensive than manual Filter Press.
The main advantages of ASP over the Filter Press:
- Fully automatic (7/24)
- Very low consumables
- Efficient to dewater oily and fatty sludge
- Suitable for wastewater treatment
- Clean surrounding
- Lighter construction, easy to relocate
- Smaller foot print
