Sludge disposal can be cost consuming. Industrial sludge is desired to be dried to minimize its mass and to save sludge hauling and disposal costs. With that in mind, Lantec Environmental offers innovative and reliable solutions for Sludge Drying at minimum costs, which can reduce waste volume and weight significantly, offering rapid payback of capital investments.
How It Works
Our low temperature batch and continuous drying system is designed to dry sludge produced by either a plate and frame filter press, a belt filter press, a centrifuge or some similar device. The sludge cake is dried by the injection of recycled, warm, dry air. The saturated air which comes off the top of the sludge container is passed over refrigerated coils, where the moisture is removed, and then reheated prior to injection into the container. That closed loop drying process eliminates emissions to the air and the burden of EPA air permits.
