Innovative methods of dewatering industrial and urban sludge

Mineral sludges are very difficult to dehydrate. Therefore, chemical additives (coagulant-flocculant) are used to improve their filterability. This results in potential contamination of filtered water and filter cakes.

The high water content of the sludge considerably increases volumes and transport costs to the downstream sectors.

Current costs and treatment times remain high (between 0.4 and 1 kWh / kg) and several hours or even days in the case of thermal drying.

DESHYBOU aims to design a system to stabilize and minimize the water content of sludge for lower energy consumption without the use of chemical contaminants. The method uses a physical filter press treatment assisted by an electric field generated by a conductive textile filter membrane. The prototype DESHYBOU will be implemented during the project and tested on sites containing sludge of various origins, including aquaculture.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using ‘Content here, content here’, making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors

There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don’t look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn’t anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text.
