Automatic SS Sludge Dewatering, Brand Name : Snp Pvt Ltd

A sludge dewatering system is designed to remove water from sludge produced during wastewater treatment. It significantly reduces the volume of sludge by extracting water, which facilitates easier handling, transportation, and disposal. The process is typically mechanical, using methods such as centrifugation, belt filter presses, screw presses, or filter presses to achieve this separation.

Sludge dewatering involves applying mechanical forces like pressing or centrifugal action to separate solids from liquids. For example, centrifuges spin the sludge to force solids to the vessel walls while water collects in the center, and belt filter presses squeeze sludge between filter cloths to extract water. The dewatered sludge, called cake, has a higher concentration of solids, which reduces overall sludge disposal costs and improves treatment efficiency.
