Hydraulic filter press for dewatering municipal and industrial sludge
In wastewater treatment facilities, effective dewatering of sludge is essential to reduce disposal and drying costs. A solution is needed that provides high dewatering efficiency, reliable continuous operation, and minimal maintenance requirements.
Efficiently dewater municipal and industrial sludge
The HPS Press by Bucher Unipektin is designed for the solid-liquid separation of biological substances, specifically communal and industrial sludge. It operates as a rotating cylinder piston system with hydraulic drive and has flexible drainage elements for filtrate flow. The entire pressing process, consisting of sludge feeding, dewatering by press-cycling, bulking stages, and filter-cake discharge, ensures continuous operation without supervision. The HPS Press achieves a high degree of dewatering, reducing disposal and drying costs. Notable features include various sizes with throughputs ranging from 100 to 800 kg DR/h, low power consumption, and minimal labor and maintenance costs.
