	Dewatering - Belt Dewatering

Water and wastewater treatment operations frequently must dewater, or remove the liquid from the residual solids produced in the treatment process. Containing less water, the dewatered material is easier to handle and costs less to transport. Belt Presses are one of many dewatering technologies.

Belt Dewatering Products

Compact Belt Press - is a simple and compact dewatering design and combines outstanding performance with low capital costs and minimal floor space.

Radial Wedge Belt - is the new benchmark for quality and performance. Its dewatering throughput rates are higher than comparable models, while achieving high cake solids and using less power.

Wastewater Treatment Plant Doubles Capacity with Installation of Six New Belt Filter Presses

The Broward County (Fla.) North Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant, located in Pompano Beach, Fla., is doubling their dewatering capacity from 900 gpm to 1800 gpm in order to meet county growth projections.

Originally, the Plant operated plate and frame presses and vacuum filters that used lime and ferric chloride to condition the sludge prior to dewatering. In 1991, three belt filter presses were installed. These three units performed well for over 13 years and are still in operation today.

The capacity of the dewatering facility was expanded in 2000 with the installation of three more identical belt presses. A temporary outdoor belt filter press facility was constructed to operate the new belt filter presses.
