Hydro-Sludge Screen

In-line pressurised sludge screen

 

The Hydro-Sludge Screen is a pressurised in-line sludge screen used to screen various types of sludge. 

MANUFACTURER 

Hydro International Ltd

APPLICATION

  • Screening at septage receiving stations
  • Screening of primary sludges
  • Screening of blended waste activated sludges
  • Food waste screening

ADVANTAGES

  • can be used to screen different types of sludges: sludges from septage tanker trucks, primary sludges, waste activated sludges (WAS), food waste
  • does not break pump pressure across the screen
  • no washwater line required to clean screen or compact screenings
  • enclosed system provides odour control

Septage is fed into a screw auger inside the screen. Sludges exit the screen through the perforations. The screenings form a "plug" at the discharge end of the screw, which is held in place by retention cone using pneumatic air pressure. As screenings build up, they press the retention cone backward, releasing the dry screenings into the screenings chute.
