ANDRITZ SEPARATION launches RheoScan, the worldʼs first patented, optical measurement system for automatic polymer dosage in belt presses and gravity belt tables: reduction of polymer costs by up to 40%
ANDRITZ SEPARATION, part of international technology Group ANDRITZ, has developed and successfully launched RheoScan, a new, innovative optical measurement system for belt presses and gravity belt tables.
ANDRITZ RheoScan measures the actual sludge viscosity during the thickening stage in real time. The new system adjusts the polymer dose needed to match changing flow rates and sludge conditions automatically and accurately. This means cost savings of up to 40% for polymer consumption and an increase in plant reliability. The patented ANDRITZ technology operates without requiring supervision.
ANDRITZ RheoScan can be applied to belt filter presses and gravity belt tables in all types of municipal and industrial sludge processing facilities. Installations at customer plants have shown that the payback period is mostly less than one year. Installations in wastewater treatment plants with digestion processes show an additional gas yield due to the optimized polymer dosage.

DAF Treats Dairy Effluent for Municipal Disposal
Fluence’s first Slovenian project uses dissolved air flotation (DAF) to reduce the cost of municipal wastewater treatment Wastewater from food production is liable to carry 10 times the organic load of municipal wastewater. Sewer and water utilities often can’t handle the volume, and when they can, they charge accordingly. As a result, many operations treat wastewater entirely in-house. Another option for plants is to perform pretreatment in-house to reduce the expense of municipal treatment. One...

EFSA Calls for Grant Proposals on the Use of NAMs for the Hazard Assessment of Cellulose Nanofibers
On September 15, 2020, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) called for grant proposals on the use of new approach methodologies (NAM) for the hazard assessment of cellulose nanofibers. EFSA states that the use of cellulose at the nanoscale is increasing and requires an assessment. According to EFSA, the main concern is that the nanoscale characteristics (e.g., length/shape of the fibers) may influence the toxicokinetic and hazardous properties of cellulose nanofibers. The main objective of the call is to...
