The Multi-Disc Screw Press can directly process sludge from oxidation ponds, eliminating thickening tanks and storage tanks. It incorporates flocculation, thickening, dewatering, and filtration into a single continuous process. The screw press dewaters sludge efficiently by compressing it against rings to filter water into the bottom tank while transporting the dewatered sludge out the top. Operators can adjust the end plate to control the dryness of the discharged sludge cake.

The Multi-Disc Screw Press is a robust machine


designed for reliability, consistency and continuous
operation. The machine can be fed with sludge
directly from the dewatering and oxidation pit
eliminating the thickening tank and the sludge
storage tank. The machine incorporates multiple
processes all in one single continuous operation. OXIDATION POND CLARIFIER THICKENING TANK SLUDGE

2. FLOCCULATION
Polymer flocculant is added in the flocculation tank
filled with sludge. Efficient agitation ensures fast
agglomeration and flocculation of the suspended
particles into large flocks that can be separated.

3. SLUDGE THICKENING
The flocks are transported through the thickening
zone onto the dewatering zone. A series of fixed and
moving rings filters the water as the sludge moves to
the dewatering zone. The filtered water flows down
through the rings to the filtered water tank below. is specially designed to move the sludge forward efficiently while gradually compressing 5. DRYNESS & DISCHARGE CONTROL
