Description

1. WHY DO WE MUST TREAT WASTE SLUDGE OF WASTEWATER TREATMENT SYSTEM?
Waste sludge is the final product discharged when a supply water/wastewater treatment systems finish the operation processes, sludge is usually liquid, with concentration of suspended solid about 0.2 to 5%, because water in sludge is still much, so sludge must be pressed or concentrated before reusing or discharging into the surrounding environment.

Benefit of drying sludge:
+ Reduce the volume of sludge;
+ Reduce the sludge treatment cost;
+ Reduce pollution of the surrounding environment;
+ To press or concentrate sludge, companies often use sludge drying yard or sludge dewatering dehydrator.

Sludge drying yard is the natural method, using sunlight to evaporate the water in the sludge, workers will collect and discard dry sludge as regulated.
This is a cheap method, not use a lot of labors, but it is rarely used for many reasons:
+ Need large area of land to make the sludge drying yard;
+ Depend on the weather, especially in the rainy season, sludge cannot be exposed, then the volume of untreated sludge increases;
+ Cause bad smell, polluted surrounding environment;
+ Uncontroll humidity of dried sludge.
Therefore, current companies often choose sludge dewatering dehydrator to treat humidity in sludge.

2. BELT PRESS
Belt press is one of the machine applied in the wastewater treatment systems for  economy and society. Belt press is designed based on 2 principles: filtering, pressing through two belts and adjust pressureà có điều chỉnh lực ép.
Belt press distributed by New Resources Co., Ltd always meets customers' strict requirements and standards with the following parameters:

STRUCTURE OF BELT PRESS
Belt press consists of many parts, each part has a specific function in the wastewater treatment process, as following:
+ Frame and foot of machine: stainless steel alloy;
+ Filter cloth: Polyester;  
+ Roll and chemical tank: stainless steel or zinc-coated steel with high chemical resistance;
+ Water collecting tray: collect water separated from sludge, permeable filter cloth;
+ Pipeline, valves and fittings: specialized materials with high corrosion resistance.


OPERATION PRINCIPLE OF BELT PRESS

+ Belt press is a machine used to filter, press sludge in the sludge treatment process of supply water/wastewater treatment plants, sludge is filtered, pressed by mechanical pressure.
+ Firstly, the mixture sludge will be coagulated, flocculated to floc with create large size, improving the water separation of sludge, then pump will pump sludge to the auxiliary belt of belt press, then sludge is distributed evenly on surface of belt, because of gravity, a part of filtered water will be permeable through the belt, then concentration of solid in sludge increase. Next sludge is stuck between the two belts and the roller system rotates around the shaft will create pressure, sludge will be moved one by one through the pressing areas, pressure will increase when sludge move to the output of machine, that means the amount of separated water will increase.
+ Pressed sludge get the certain dryness (concentration of solid > 25%) will be discharged, after that the high-pressure nozzle system will wash belts before the second cycle of the belt press starts

ADVANTAGES OF BELT PRESS
+ Operate completely automatically and continuously.
+ Belt filter well and long lifetime.
+ Can adjust two upper and lower belts to get balanced status to improve life of belt.
+ Low noise and vibration, stable working performance.
+ Low polymer consumption.
+ Simple spare parts, reduce maintenance cost.
+ Apply widely for many kind of different sludge.

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
+ Capacity: 1 - 20 m3/h
+ Suitable, light-weighted style.
+ Fabric of belt is polyester.
+ Each belt is automatically adjusted when operated by pneumatic structure.
+ Equip automatic belt tension device when the belt is shortened.
+ Each belt is equipped with a separate washing system.
+ Machine works fully automatic, there is the pneumatic system to adjust the belt and automatic pressure.
+ Humidity of pressed sludge is 65% - 80%.
+ Easy operation and maintenance.
