HUBER Disc Thickener S-DISC
Manufacturer: HUBER Technology
Country: Germany
HUBER Disc Thickener S-DISC is designed for mechanical sludge thickening. It increases dry-solids concentration before downstream dewatering, stabilisation or other treatment stages.
Sludge is fed to rotating disc elements, where filtrate drains through the filter surface. Disc movement supports even sludge distribution and separation of free water without producing final dewatered cake.
sludge thickening on a disc filter surface;
increase of dry solids before downstream treatment;
washing and water demand apply according to the selected configuration.
Throughput, final dry-solids concentration, polymer demand and wash-water demand depend on sludge properties and S-DISC size.
