A New ERA in Waste Management

 


 


VORTEX DEHYDRATION utilizes forced air and a pre-heater injection system to deliver sludges into an agitated cyclone which develops a tornado atmosphere that atomizes liquids and pulverizes solids. The heavier solids will fall to the bottom of the cyclone and are discharged to a collection system. The finer atomized materials and air are filtered through a bag house. The hot air exiting the bag house is routed to the pre-heater to capture the heat generated in the cyclone by the friction and pressure in the process. This results in a 90+% reduction or elimination of moisture. Production capacity is directly related to solids content of the sludge. Capacity is generally 5-10 tons per hour. The ideal application of this service is for a sludge that is 30+% solids up to 200 tons per day for a single unit. Some dehydrated solids may be reused as fuel, feeds, fertilizer, raw material substitutes and more.
