Applications

Brewery

Screw press dewatering of brewery and malting wastewater sludge

Dewatering Brewery Sludge

Breweries generate strong organic effluent that is typically treated in anaerobic reactors followed by aerobic polishing, producing surplus biomass that must be dewatered. The screw press turns this thin biological sludge into a transportable cake with minimal supervision. Its low energy demand fits the sustainability goals of modern breweries, and continuous, low-noise operation allows installation close to the process area.
