For dewatering purposes, polymeric flocculants are dosed into the sludge for conditioning. These will agglomerate and flocculate existing sludge particles to enable industrial-scale dewatering in screen presses or centrifuges. Since the disposal of dewatered sludge dry solids and the required polymer additions are the most important cost drivers, industrialists are trying to generate a maximum of sludge solids whilst keeping polymer dosages at a minimum. To create ideal dewatering conditions, polymer overdosage and underdosage must be avoided. In order to achieve this goal a new method with the help of the MütekTM DFR-05 (Drainage Freeness Retention) is introduced which allows: Trageted selection of polymeric flocculants Polymer savings of at least 10% Check sludge dewatering during effluent treatment Automated lab measurements giving user-independent results Download BTG Sludge dewatering This solution uses: BTG Product Resilient product solutions maximise application performance BTG Analyze Data analytics and applications audits unlock new levels of productivity BTG Expert Specialist BTG experts transform results of process, application and plant Talk to our team Contact BTG Related products Mütek DFR-05 Lab simulation of drainage, freeness and retention processes onsite Go to product page Disclaimer LinkedIn YouTube Media Gallery Sitemap Privacy policy Compliance / Whistleblowing Scheme © 2021 - BTG is a Voith company Read more OK World-leading process solutions for the global pulp and paper industry Select your market: (You can change this later) Tissue Pulp Packaging Other
