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.
Typical Sludge & Process Parameters
| Parameter | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Sludge type | Chemical-physical + biological |
| Feed concentration | 1–4% DS |
| Cake solids | 18–28% DS |
| Key challenge | Gelatinous hydroxide sludge |

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.
