Evaporators / SludgeDry

The SludgeDry Systems can help by easily and affordably turning sludge liabilities into assets for major midsize wastewater treatment plants. The SludgeDry dehydrates and sanitizes wastewater solids in an enclosed chamber using indirect thermal technology. The result is clean, light, granular Class A biosolids that are safe and beneficial for agricultural, horticultural, municipal and domestic use....SludgeDry truly puts waste to work!

The SludgeDry Process
The SludgeDry system automatically controls the amount of wet biosolids fed from the propietary custom sludge hopper into the dehydration chamber. The wet sludge is then dehydrated in a controlled time/temperature regime to obtain the desired dryness. Initially, maximum heat is applied to raise the mass to the vaporization point of water. The temperature is then monitored and automatically adjusted to achieve the optimum final product.

The SludgeDry system economically produces Class "A" biosolids on a continuous basis with minimal EPA approved contact air emissions.
