DRYPRESS TECHNOLOGY

The Drypress Screw Press  provides a unique, cost effective solution for dewatering of municipal and industrial sludge. The equipment is designed to dewater the Primary Sludge and/or Secondary Sludge dewater sludge from a dry content of 0.8-6% to 15-25%. 

​

The sludge is fed to the machine via pump or inlet hopper into a cylindrical progressive three stage wedgewire or perforated drum.

STAGE 1
DRAINING

The flocculated sludge enters the the Drypress, the liquid fraction drains immediately

STAGE 2
THICKENING

A progressive and gentle compression of the sludge against the drum thickens the sludge.

STAGE 3
DEWATERING

Sludge is pressed against counter pressure cone, reaching high results in dryness.

DRUM SEAL

On the tip of the screw flight there is an elastometer to create a seal between drum and screw and to generate pressure.

DRUM WASHING

The Drum is washed by a Motorized washing ring moving up and down the drum.

PNEUMATIC
CONE

The cone pressure is pneumatically regulated to generate more or less pressure on the sludge
