sludge thickening tank

After all, water is a resource necessary for the survival of every human and life on this planet so that efficiency becomes heavily weighted where its treatment goes. One of the major issues faced at a wastewater treatment plant is sludge, which it contains residue from waste water that settles down and processes. These solids are called sludge, which means in addition to being pumped up due to its high concentration, proper actions must be taken so that no environmental damage would occur.

Sludge thickening is an important process in the waste water treatment processes as it saves weight and space. This is a key process and involves the use of sludge thickening tanks that are specially built with various methods to separate liquid from solid. These tanks allow the solids to settle at their bottom and liquid component is poured out & discharged by an outlet placed on top.

During recent years, a number of innovative designs for sludge thickening tank have been proposed in line with the specific requisites within wastewater management. The range of options includes the Calorplast round thickener, sludge blanket clarifier and corrugated plate settler. Not only these provide more efficient ways to deal with sludge, but also poised for cost saving and energy sustainability.

Sludge Thickening Tank Clean Water Technology

The proper sanitation of water sources is also crucial. As governmental regulations such as the Clean Water Act have placed stricter wastewater treatment requirements, new sludge thickening technologies are changing how plants can effectively communicate compliance while reducing costs of operation. This includes the Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF) Tank, where this technology works by introducing air bubbles to assist separating solids from liquid that yields sludge with higher solid percentage. This technology provides an eco-friendly process as it minimizes the need for chemical & energy in treatment.

There is also the gravity belt thickener, which works on difference in specific gravities of solids and liquids within a sludge. Solids are pushed up to the top meanwhile liquid is drained at bottom with the help of a belt. The sludge is thereafter dewatered into a thick cake that can be easily and properly disposed of. This is the cheapest method and also has a lesser environmental impact as it operates continuously, low operating costs & generates no odor during processing.
