Simulation of sludge dewatering on belt filters
A mathematical model for belt filters was developed to determine optimum load rate and belt speed during drainage of flocculated biological sludge. Numerical simulations were performed for belt filters with and without plows, and the model fit experimental data well. Experiments showed that highly compressible cakes were formed during drainage, which was important. Due to cake compression, the ...

Wyeth - Case Study
Paddle Dryer turns waste into income for food processing plant. A northeast food processor turns its activated biological sludge waste from its manufacturing process into income by recycling the waste as an ingredient for organic fertilizer.

Which Sludge Dewatering Method Is Right for Me?
Sludge is a byproduct of a wide range of industrial applications, from power generation to oil refining to drinking water and wastewater treatment. Due to its high liquid content, it is difficult and, consequently, expensive to store and transport for disposal in an unprocessed form. That’s why many industrial facilities invest in dewatering equipment, which is used to separate the ...

Dewatering optimization with in-line and real-time measurement of polymer: results from full-scale treatment plants
Full-scale testing was carried out at two wastewater treatment plants to determine whether residual polymer concentration, measured by filtrate and centrate absorbance at 191 nm, can be used to identify the optimum polymer dose and achieve in-line and real-time dewatering optimization. The first plant uses high speed centrifuges and the second plant uses belt filter presses for dewatering. ...

Belt filter press vs. centrifuge in sludge dewatering
Sludge dewatering basically minimizes waste in the wastewater treatment process. When done correctly this can have many advantages as we wrote before in our blog post. In this table, we focus on comparing two sludge dewatering technologies. Dewaco solutions are based on belt filter presses and gravity belt thickeners. The findings here are based on OWEA Biosolids Specialty Workshop. ...

What is Sludge Dewatering?
What Is Sludge vs. Sludge Cake? Sludge dewatering is a process in which a sludge slurry (sludge) is made more solid by removing water from its contents to form a sludge cake. A wide variety of municipal and industrial processes will create sludge cake after it is dewatered using various presses to form higher solids content versus a watery sludge slurry. While dewatering does not in itself treat ...

Environmental sludge treatment
During the process of wastewater treatment, sludge generation is an important and at times crucial issue to be addressed as inadequate sludge handling system can pose serious environmental implications. Liquid sludge can be easily thickened and reduced to a solid cake via sludge thickening / dewatering. This reduces the volume of liquid sludge significantly, usually resulting in a quite ...
