ASH Belt Thickener

Using gravity to thicken dilute sludge and slurries, the Alfa Laval AS-H belt thickener is suitable for all municipal or industrial flocculated sludges – particularly those from biological and activated sludge processes. Low energy and polymer consumption and trouble-free operation give important reductions in both cost and hassle for wastewater management.

Description

Using gravity to thicken dilute sludge and slurries, the Alfa Laval AS-H belt thickener is suitable for all municipal or industrial flocculated sludges – particularly those from biological and activated sludge processes. Low energy and polymer consumption and trouble-free operation give important reductions in both cost and hassle for wastewater management.

Numerous advantages for flocculation sludge thickening and dewatering

  • Reduce the volume of sludge, thereby reducing waste disposal cost
  • Low energy use and polymer consumption
  • Lower labour cost and cost of change, thanks to minimal need for operator attention and maintenance
  • Totally-enclosed, low-odour unit with easy access for better safety and work environment
  • Robust design avoids fatigue and wearing

Designed for high throughput rates and high product solids content, the Alfa Laval AS-H belt thickener is considered the industry standard for removal of liquid from a solid-liquid suspension/sludge. With a simple design the sludge thickener has a small footprint and is suitable for both indoor and outdoor installation in your effluent treatment plant.
