Dewatering Municipal Wastewater Sludges
The Big Picture Holistic Approach to Dewatering Municipal Wastewater Sludges...What is Dewatering Municipal Wastewater Sludges?
Very quickly we'll answer this one though the answer is obvious and ties to all sludge dewatering. The removal of water from sewage sludge is dewatering municipal wastewater sludge.
What is Municipal Wastewater Sludge?
Municipal wastewater sludges are different from many other wastewater treatment sludges because they are extremely high in soluble organic compounds (sewage) and are therefore essentially organic. This means that they are the result of largely biological wastewater treatment processes.
How Does One Approach Dewatering Municipal Wastewater Sludge?
As with all sludge dewatering technologies you can approach dewatering in various ways depending on your requirements and eventual disposition of your sewage sludge.
All the usual methods can apply, pressure filtration dewatering, belt press dewatering filtration, air sludge drying processes, sludge dewatering centrifugation and vacuum filtration.
What's the Best Way to Dewater Municipal Wastewater Sludge?
This is not easily answered without a comprehensive evaluation of your specific needs including the final disposition of your sludge cake including whether you will be applying the sludge in land applications, landfill disposal, further processing and so on. Analyzing each situation is critical to optimize the wastewater sludge aspect of your municipal wastewater treatment processes.
