    DEWATERING SCREW PRESS FOR SLUDGE WATER

    Catalogue Sheet
    Sludge water is a product of mechanical, biological and chemical treatment of wastewater in
    wastewater treatment plants. Our dewatering screw press, which serves to thicken sludge water to
    20% dry-matter content, can provide efficient desludging. In terms of quality, this equipment
    surpasses traditional sedimentation sludge removal.

    This dewatering/thickening screw press has been designed to be used primarily in wastewater
    treatment plants, but can also be used for thickening both industrial water and wastewater in food-
    processing operations.

    If a dewatering press is already incorporated into the new WWTP design, costs related to the
    construction of sedimentation tanks are eliminated as this equipment can also be used for thickening
    secondary sludge directly from activation.

    Description of the equipment:


    Sludge water is carried to the dewatering screw press using a feeder pump, which pumps sludge water to
    the first inlet chamber, where the flow to the other part of the press screw is optimised by means of an
    overflow.

    When sludge water leaves the inlet chamber and enters the mixing chamber, a flocculant/polymer is
    added which makes solid particles aggregate into so-called flocks. This process occurs in the mixing
    chamber while sludge water is slowly mixed with the flocculant by a blade shaft. Thus treated sludge
    water with flocks flows via an overflow towards the screw, which is the basic mechanism of the press.

    The variable pitch helix of the screw is completed with plates fulfilling the function of a self-cleaning
    moving filter. Fixed plates form a static structure of the grid whereas the moving plates ensure
    continuous self-cleaning while the screw is in motion. In terms of structure, there are two fixed and one
    loose plate on four guiding rods; the loose plate rotates while the screw is in motion. The gap between
    the fixed and loose plates varies from 0.5 to 0.1 mm. Water from dewatering flows through this gap.
    Since the size of the gap continuously changes, the dewatering process is smooth. A pressure piece is
    mounted at the end of the screw which pushes against the already dewatered sludge, thus increasing
    the dewatering efficiency.

    Desludged water returns to the wastewater treatment plant, where it can be biologically treated. Sludge
    which is discharged from the end of the machine can be transported, for instance, by means of a belt
    conveyor. Dewatering substantially reduces sludge volume, thus reducing transportation and disposal
    costs.
    The press can run in automatic mode, and thus does not need any operator. The operator can check the
    status of the equipment and make the necessary settings using a display located on the electrical box's
    door. The main screw motor is connected to an SEW gearbox and thanks to the front transmission
    achieves 7 rpm at 50 Hz. The motor is connected via a frequency inverter, which makes it possible to
    further accelerate/slow down the screw. The press can also run in manual mode, where each component
    can be manually turned on/off by means of the control display.

    The machine is made of stainless steel X5CrNi18-10 (1.4301/SS304). The screw itself and the plates are
    made of X2CrNiMo17-12-2 (1.4404/SS316) with a chromium-plated surface. This ensures abrasion
    resistance, sufficient hardness and resistance to wear and tear. And of course this provides the necessary
    resistance to corrosion for materials which come into contact with aggressive sludge waters.

    We also offer a GSM module as an optional. In case of any failure or an emergency condition, such
    module sends a warning SMS to a pre-defined phone number.
