The better we treat wastewater, the more sludge we produce.
Primary sludge consists of solids that have been contained in raw wastewater; secondary sludge contains biomass that has been generated during biological wastewater treatment. Eventually there is also tertiary sludge from advanced, chemo-physical wastewater treatment.
Important sludge treatment processes include:
- Thickening by concentrating solids
- Screening for removal of disturbing solids
- Dewatering by mechanical water removal
- Drying by water evaporation
- Incineration by thermal oxidation of organic solids
We offer highly efficient and comprehensive HUBER Solutions for sludge treatment, from thickening to reuse.
