WHY A PILOT TEST?

SCAE’s in-depth knowledge of the various types of sludge and specific project requirements allows it to offer customized consulting services and state-of-the-art equipment capable of efficiently addressing even the most complex challenges.

To evaluate the optimal sludge treatment technology for your facility, SCAE offers the option of an on-site pilot test: a dedicated unit is configured and tested directly on the customer’s actual sludge to measure real-world performance before any investment decision is made.

  • Analysis of the sludge to be treated - Our experts evaluate the specific characteristics of the material: concentration, viscosity and flocculation behavior.
  • Sizing - Technology selection and determination of the correct flow rate for your plant.
  • Custom calibration - The system is configured to the plant’s actual needs: polyelectrolyte dosing, feed flow rate and press operating parameters.
  • Field test - Direct testing of the pilot equipment at the customer’s plant, with constant support from a specialized technician.
  • Concrete Data and Results - The test yields a final report detailing the actual performance achieved, allowing you to evaluate the investment with maximum transparency, rather than relying on a theoretical estimate.

BENEFITS OF SLUDGE DEWATERING

  • Reduction in sludge volume and weight: Dewatering removes water from the sludge, significantly reducing its volume and weight. This simplifies transportation and storage, lowering associated costs.
  • Savings on disposal costs: Since dewatered sludge is less bulky and lighter, disposal costs are lower. Furthermore, in some cases, dewatered sludge can be reused as fertilizer or fuel, generating additional savings.
  • Improved management and hygiene: Dewatered sludge is easier to manage and less likely to cause health and hygiene issues. It reduces the risk of unpleasant odors and environmental contamination.
  • Operational efficiency: Sludge dewatering improves the overall efficiency of wastewater treatment processes. It allows for better flow management and optimizes resource use.
  • Environmental sustainability: By reducing sludge volume and disposal costs, dewatering contributes to the company’s environmental sustainability. Furthermore, the reuse of dewatered sludge as a resource promotes the circular economy.
