Dewatering Biosolids

 

 

 

Dewatering is necessary to ensure that the Biosolids are utilized or disposed of in line with today's requirements. Highly efficient dewatering is essential for drying incineration, composting or dumping.  Decanters from Westfalia Separator meet these requirements.  A high dewatering efficiency guarantees a substantial reduction in sludge volume and consequently significant savings for: 

  • hauling

  • tipping fees

  • energy consumption during drying/incineration

 

The Biosolids from the pre-clarifying basin and further cleaning stages first passes through a pre-thickener and digester. The digested sludge with a solids content of 3-8% is homogenized in the storage tank. The pump conveys the sludge to the decanter. A second pump feeds polymer flocculent to the decanter. The optimally dewatered solids discharging from the decanter are sent for further disposal by means of mechanical conveyor. High-performance decanters from Westfalia Separator meet the requirements for maximum dewatering efficiency.
