In most cases, biosolids must be dewatered before they can be beneficially reused. Biosolids are often just 3-5 percent solids, so removal of the water from the material is essential to reducing weight and the cost of further treatment or disposal or reuse.
A variety of technologies are employed to dewater biosolids—including presses, centrifuges, and other devices
Siemens offers a complete range of biosolids dewatering systems, for small as well as large treatment plants, and suitable for all forms of reuse applications—including land spreading, composting, and incineration. These technologies include:
Siemens provides pilot treatment systems and analytical testing to document the effectiveness of treatment prior to installation. We also provide parts and service on all of our equipment, as well as equipment which may have been provided by other manufacturers.
