Sludge Dewatering

Aquaflow has gained expertise in handling of difficult sludges through more than 200 references and in tests made at our customers' sites. Therefore, we can offer optimized process solutions for your specific needs.

AF-Table Gravity Table

Pre-dewatering stage before final pressing

Sludge dewatering systems often include a pre-dewatering stage for very dilute sludge streams.

AF-Table gravity table is well-suited for all types of sludges, but it is designed especially for thickening "difficult" sludges or when operating with high hydraulic capacities.

AF-Table separates easily removable free water from the inlet sludge flow prior to the final pressing. It offers you a modulated construction with low investment and operational costs and reduces sludge volume to the sludge presses. Sludge thickening to 8 - 17 % consistency is typical of the AF-Table.

A wide range of modulated AF-Table sizes assures optimum operating performance and reliability over a wide range of sludge conditions.

AF-Press Screw Press

Final sludge pressing

Aquaflow has gained expertise in handling of difficult sludges through more than 200 references and in tests made at our customers' sites. Therefore, we can offer optimized process solutions for your specific needs.

AF-Press is especially designed for P&P sludges. The size and geometry are chosen on the basis of sludge properties. Thanks to a wide size range and tailor-made process design, it is possible to handle sludges from 5 BDt/d up to 140 BDt/d with one line. When high compressing forces can be used, the extremely strong construction allows a very high torque and minimizes the need of maintenance.

High dry solids content and good filtrate water quality can be achieved by means of AF-Press.

AF-Belt Twin Wire Press

Final sludge pressing

Aquaflow's AF-Belt twin wire press is specifically designed for pulp & paper mill sludge dewatering applications. AF-Belt is ideally suited for applications, where sludge inlet consistency and quality vary and for sludge mixtures with significant biosludge content.

AF-Belt is designed to operate at low wire speeds in order to reach the highest possible dewatered sludge cake dryness (30 - 50 %) depending on ash and biosludge content.
