We offer two types of demos:
- Municipality requested demo – This is a demo requested by the Municipality for the explicit purpose of the Municipality. This is a paid demo in which the Municipality contracts our services for the test drying of their sludge.
- Sponsored demo – This is a regional demo and offered to the Municipality at no charge. This type demo is a sales function, and interested parties from the geographical area around the plant would be invited to visit the demonstration. This type demo is coordinated through our local representative.
Scope of Supply
Our scope of supply includes the mobile indirectly heated dryer and our operators for a period of three days: one day for mobilization, one day for drying up to two tons of sludge cake and one day for demobilization. The dryer and its operators are available for extended days of drying on a per day cost.
For paid demos, the freight to the city’s wastewater treatment plant is included in our scope of supply.
Sample Demonstration Proposal
Municipality Responsibilities
- A clear and level area capable of supporting the trailer mounted dryer equipment.
- Sludge cake between 14 and 25% solids.
- A person(s) to assist our operators with loading sludge cake into the dryer's feed hopper. The top of the feed hopper is approximately 10 feet off the ground and will require a front-end loader/Bobcat or forklift.
- Electrical Service: 460 volt * 3 phase * 30 amp within 100 feet of the unit.
- Water supply (hose bib connection) at 5 gpm and 30 to 60 psi.
- A location to drain the condenser water within 100 feet of the unit. This can be a manhole or floor drain that will return the condenser water back to the treatment plant. The return water will be approximately the same volume of water going into the condenser.
- A container to hold the dried product. This usually takes two to three 40-gallon plastic trash cans with lids.
Please contact your local representative to schedule a demo at your wastewater treatment facility.
