Textile Industry

Screw press dewatering of textile dyeing and finishing wastewater sludge

Dewatering Textile Sludge

Textile dyeing and finishing produces coloured effluent treated by coagulation-flocculation and biological processes, yielding a chemical-physical sludge with hydroxide and dye residues. The screw press dewaters this often gelatinous sludge steadily, with polymer conditioning tuned to the specific chemistry. Low rotational speed and self-cleaning gaps prevent the screen blinding that fine hydroxide sludges cause in other presses, keeping capture rates high.

RF Series Screw Press

Self-Cleaning Ring Disc Filter Elements

Fixed and moving stainless steel rings form the filtration gaps and keep them clear continuously — no filter cloth, no clogging.
