Municipal Wastewater Solutions FAQs

What is biosolids dewatering, and why is it critical for municipal operations?

Biosolids dewatering removes water from sewage sludge, creating a stable, manageable material for beneficial reuse or disposal while producing clean centrate for return to the treatment process. Effective dewatering is essential to minimize disposal costs, meet regulatory requirements, and maintain plant capacity without costly shutdowns or permit violations.

Municipal facilities rely on various mechanical dewatering systems for solid-liquid separation:

  • Decanter centrifuges
  • Belt filter presses
  • Filter presses
  • Screw presses
  • Gravity belt thickeners
  • Dissolved air flotation (DAF)
  • Rotary drum thickeners

While basic dewatering methods handle standard applications, decanter centrifuges provide superior performance for challenging biosolids processing. They deliver continuous, high-throughput processing with exceptional cake dryness and clean centrate quality, even with varying sludge compositions and difficult-to-dewater waste streams.

Compared to alternatives like belt presses or filter presses, centrifuges offer faster processing, smaller footprints, and greater flexibility in handling varying feed conditions, making them the preferred choice for modern municipal treatment facilities.

Our municipal solutions center around Alfa Laval decanter centrifuges, supported by complete process systems:

  • High-capacity decanter centrifuges for biosolids dewatering
  • Solid bowl centrifuges
  • Polymer mixing and flocculant dosing systems
  • Sludge transfer and booster pumps
  • Centrate clarification systems
  • Complete electrical and automation packages

Centrifuge systems offer several advantages for municipal wastewater operations:

  • Higher cake dryness compared to belt presses or filter systems
  • Continuous processing that handles variable flow conditions
  • Superior fine particle capture
  • Compact footprint reduces space requirements and installation costs
  • Enclosed systems minimize odors and environmental exposure
  • Excellent handling of varying sludge conditions and compositions
  • Lower operating costs through reduced maintenance and higher efficiency
  • Enhanced process control and automated operation

Absolutely. Every system is configured around your specific sludge characteristics: total solids content, particle size distribution, polymer requirements, and regulatory discharge limits. We optimize centrifuge selection, bowl geometry, and auxiliary equipment to maximize performance for your exact application and treatment capacity.

We understand that municipal facilities operate under strict regulatory oversight and public accountability. Our comprehensive support includes:

  • Pre-deployment pilot testing to validate performance
  • On-site commissioning and operator training
  • 24/7 technical assistance
  • Remote monitoring and troubleshooting capabilities
  • Consulting services for process optimization
