CirTec – Sludge treatment

Efficient sludge thickening and dewatering are crucial for sustainable and cost-effective wastewater treatment.

At Cirtec, we offer advanced technologies to reduce sludge volume, recover water, and minimise overall processing costs. Our solutions – belt thickener and belt press – are designed for reliability, high performance, and flexibility.

Your challenges

High sludge volumes and disposal costs

Insufficient dewatering leads to high transport and landfill costs, creating a significant financial burden.

Variable sludge characteristics

Mineral sludge, fibre-rich sludge, and biological sludge each have unique properties, resulting in fluctuating dewatering performance.

Space limitations and integration

Compact and easily integrated systems are essential for facilities with limited space.

Our Solutions

Belt thickener

The continuous sludge belt thickener allows water to drain through a moving polyester filter belt, separating solids from the filtrate.

Special ploughs improve drainage by alternately compressing, reversing, and distributing the sludge across the belt. Even the most unstable sludge can be treated easily.

Benefits:

Separates over 95% of suspended solids
Minimal consumption of polyelectrolyte
Suitable for various sludge types

Belt Press

Sludge dewatering characteristics vary greatly depending on composition and abrasiveness.

That’s why we offer a wide range of belt press systems tailored to specific sludge properties and customer requirements.

Benefits:

High flexibility for different sludge types
Robust design for abrasive applications
Consistent performance and low maintenance costs
