Dewatering Equipment

We supply complete sludge thickening and dewatering lines engineered to take thin sludge through to a dry, stackable cake, built on technology proven across municipal and industrial wastewater plants worldwide.

Overview

Less water. Less volume. Lower cost.

Every tonne of water left in sludge is a tonne that has to be pumped, hauled and paid to dispose of. Our equipment removes that water in stages, first concentrating the sludge to cut its volume, then pressing it into a firm cake that costs considerably less to transport and dispose of.

The line is built on two proven stages. Thickening raises the solids concentration and reduces volume before the sludge reaches the press, protecting downstream capacity. Belt filter pressing then drives the cake to maximum dryness. Both stages are engineered for high solids capture at low energy, polymer and wash water consumption.

  • Sludge thickening and belt filter pressing from a single supplier
  • High solids capture with low energy and polymer consumption
  • Engineered, supplied and supported across the complete line

Thicken first, then press.

Sending dilute sludge straight to a press is the most common and most expensive mistake in a dewatering line. Thickening is the cheapest volume reduction available, and every point of solids gained before the press raises cake dryness, cuts polymer demand and reduces the hydraulic load the press has to carry. The two stages are specified together for that reason.

Single source delivery

How this scope is delivered

Engineered in house

Specification, drafting, modelling and analysis are produced by our own engineers before anything is committed.

Produced to our drawing

Work is placed with the vendor partner in our production network equipped for that scope, to our tolerances and our schedule.

Inspected before release

Quality control checks every item against the drawing, the specification and the applicable standard prior to despatch.

Tracked every week

Status is published to your job portal for the life of the order, covering stage reached and whether the date holds.

Supported afterward

Installation guidance, routine maintenance, troubleshooting and spare parts across the working life of the equipment.

Our range

What we supply.

Every unit is engineered and supplied to the sludge, the duty and the standard your plant requires.

Sludge Thickening

The first and most cost effective step in volume reduction, concentrating dilute sludge before it reaches the dewatering stage.

Model : KL-S1

Rotary Drum Thickener

Concentrates flocculated sludge inside an enclosed, direct drive rotating drum, draining free water through the drum screen by gravity. With no support trunnions, very low energy, polymer and wash water demand and a notably small footprint, it is a clean and economical alternative to a gravity belt thickener for small and medium plants where space and operating cost are at a premium.

Belt Filter Presses

The proven route to a firm, transportable cake, pressing thickened sludge between two tensioned belts through progressively higher pressure zones.

Tower Press working principle diagram

Model : KL-T

A vertical belt filter press that stacks its pressure rollers to extend retention time and lift cake dryness well above conventional horizontal designs. Belt wrap at each roller maximises pressure contact, while a stainless steel drip pan beneath every roller prevents the cake rewetting as it climbs. The eye level gravity deck removes the need for elevated platforms and catwalks. Available in varies belt widths configurations.

Belt Filter Press working principle diagram

Model : KL-B

A horizontal belt filter press built for reliable, high throughput dewatering. A rigid frame, automated polymer dosing, belt cleaning and straightforward operator controls hold solids capture and water removal steady with minimal intervention, in a compact footprint. The KL-B Series is available in varies belt widths configurations.
