HUBER Screw Press Q-PRESS®
Manufacturer: HUBER Technology
Country: Germany
HUBER Screw Press Q-PRESS® dewaters sludge using a slowly rotating screw and a cylindrical screen section. Q-PRESS® is a separate screw-press series and is selected independently from S-PRESS®.
Conditioned sludge enters the press, where the liquid phase separates through the screen surface. Toward the discharge end, pressure increases, the material is compacted and dewatered cake leaves the unit.
screw-press dewatering with filtrate separation through a cylindrical screen;
cake formation and controlled backpressure where included in the version;
washing mode and energy demand depend on version and sludge.
Q-PRESS® is selected separately from S-PRESS: the choice depends on required throughput, sludge composition, conditioning and automation level.
