Sludge thickening and dewateringSUEZ Group
Two processes can be used to thicken sludge Static thickening, by gravitational settling Static thickening calls on conventional and innovative techniques, such as Drainis Turbo that eliminates the water at speeds higher than the conventional speeds, thereby optimising the downstream dewatering phase (reduction of the amount of equipment, energy and reagent consumption, etc.).

Sludge biosolids processing in a resource recovery facility is a critical operation for efficient running of any plant. For some facilities it is also the feed process into generating electricity, harvesting biogas, and producing reusable biosolids.
Sludge Thickening by Dissolved-Air Flotation
SLUDGE THICKENING BY DISSOLVED-AIR FLOTATION William J. Katz and Anthony Geinopolos Sludge thickening, as the name im plies, is a dewatering process. The use of dissolved-air flotation as a means of dewatering wastewater treat ment plant sludges is a recent occur rence. The interest in this method was intensified after World War II with

Sewage sludge treatmentWikipedia
Sewage sludge treatment describes the processes used to manage and dispose of sewage sludge produced during sewage treatment. Sludge is mostly water with lesser amounts of solid material removed from liquid sewage. Primary sludge includes settleable solids removed during primary treatment in primary clarifiers.
Anaerobic Digestion of Wastewater Sludge A Primer The
Dec 18, 2017 · Anaerobic digestion is the most commonly used method of wastewater sludge treatment, where the primary aim is to break down the sludge in order to minimize the volume that is left for disposal. During this process the organic matter is decomposed by anaerobic bacteria in an oxygen-free environment, producing carbon dioxide and methane gases and
Anaerobic Digestion Fundamentals
and gravity belt thickening. By reducing the overall volume of digester feed sludge, thickening may reduce the equipment and tankage capacity required for digestion, conveyance, or storage, as well as the energy required for digester heating, and chemical use for additional conditioning (if required).
Biosolids, Sewage Sludge, Sludge Thickener • Langley
Centrifugal thickening and dewatering of sewage sludge and biosolids is a process that uses the power of centrifugal force to separate wastewater solids from liquid. Thickening before digestion or dewatering reduces the tankage needed for digestion and storage by removing water.
ThickenerOvivo
When wastewater is treated, sludge is produced. Ovivo thickeners are designed to continuously produce as thick a sludge as possible. Powered by heavy-duty drives, designed to handle the specified torque for 20 years of continuous operation, the sludge is gently mixed by rotating rake arms.

Rising Cost of Sludge Handling and Disposal Treatment
Sludge thickening precedes sludge digestion and stabilization, and reduces the free water content in the sludge, leaving a biosolids content of between 5 and 10%. This initial reduction in water volume allows for a smaller and more cost-effective sludge digester. Common methods of sludge thickening include disc thickeners, screw thickeners and

Sludge Digestion. Sludge digestion is accomplished by the anaerobic process. This anaerobic digestion occurs in the three covered digesters located southeast of the operations building. Sewage solids (sludge and scum) are collected in the primary sedimentation tanks and pumped to the digesters.
Biosolids Technology Fact Sheet Gravity Thickening
Therefore, gravity thickening is usually accompanied by some other method of thickening for secondary solids. Gravity thickening reduces the downstream requirements for further sludge processing, and thus it is often used prior to anaerobic digestion or lime stabilization.
Anaerobic Digestion of Sewage Sludge SSWMFind tools
Two different types in anaerobic sludge digestion process are in practice (1) Low rate digestion a large storage tank, occasionally, with some heating facility, and (2) High rate digestion with pre-thickening of raw sludge, complete mixing, heating and uniform feeding of raw sludge (CPHEEO 2012).
