Sludge Drying Beds
The Sludge Bed
Drying system is
the most effective and cost-efficient
de-watering system available
for the sustainable treatment of
wastewater
sludge.
Applications
The Sludge Drying Bed is utilised in conjunction with an existing wastewater treatment plant to give maximum efficiency in sludge drying and management.
Benefits
01 Flexible
- Low operational costs.
- Gravity feed.
- Minimal moving parts for low maintenance.
02 Efficient
In tropical climates de-watering of the sludge occurs in less than twelve hours.
03 Economical
No power required.
04 Safe Water
Water can be recycled with or
without further treatment.
Reduces environmental impact significantly
A Sustainable Sludge Drying Bed measures eight meters by three meters and one meter and can cater for 24 cubic meters of sludge (approx. 1,500 population). It is a modular system where additional units can be added to it, and they can be stacked or placed horizontally.
- Uses no chemicals
- Low maintenance
- Little or no energy costs
- Recycle 100% sludge with no waste
- No odours
- No carbon footprint
- Positive environmental impact
- Positive impact on health
