Applications
Food Industry DAF Sludge
Dewatering DAF float sludge from food and beverage plants
Food-Sector DAF Float
Food and beverage plants rely on DAF to remove fats, oils and grease from effluent, producing a rich, fatty float sludge. This FOG-laden float is one of the hardest sludges to dewater — and one the screw press handles best, thanks to its self-cleaning gaps and enclosed, odour-sealed body.
Stainless-steel construction and washdown compatibility meet food-industry hygiene standards, while continuous operation matches the steady DAF float production of a processing plant.
Typical Sludge & Process Parameters
| Parameter | Typical range |

| Feed concentration | 2–6% DS |
| Cake solids | 14–22% DS |
| Key requirement | Hygiene + odour containment |
