Centrifuge for thickening sewage sludge
Efficiently thicken sewage sludge with advanced centrifuge technology, optimizing digestion tower use and reducing energy consumption with innovative design.
Thickens and Separates Sewage Sludge Efficiently
The OSE Decanter from Flottweg is a specialized centrifuge designed to efficiently thicken sewage sludge, catering to municipal wastewater treatment plants and industrial operations. By utilizing centrifugal acceleration, it thickens excess sludge to optimize digestion tower performance. This unit can process up to 20% higher output density with minimal energy use, thanks to its Recuvane® system, which reduces energy demands by 20%. It supports continuous and automatic 24-hour operations with simple control via Flottweg Touch Control and InGo interfaces. Constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, it minimizes maintenance costs with its user-friendly design and durable wear protection. Ideal for applications across environmental services and industrial waste management, the OSE Decanter offers tailored engineering support for seamless integration into existing systems.
