Sludge drying with processes that set standards

A sustainable sludge drying needs processesthat use modern technologies and work efficiently. michel SLUDGE-DRYING-SYSTEMS offers advanced, integrated systems for efficient sludge drying in just one machine. Optimize the recycling of industrial sludge with our advanced solutions.

What is sludge drying and what is it good for?

What is sludge drying?

Sludge drying is the process of removing water from sludge resulting from various industrial, agricultural or municipal processes. This process is crucial to reduce volume, lower transportation and disposal costs and CO2 exchange, and to be able to safely reuse or dispose of the sludge.

Dried sludge can be used as fuel, fertilizer or in the production of materials. which conserves resources and protects the environment. However, it must first be subjected to a special sludge drying process.

The process steps of sludge drying at a glance

  • Pre-treatment of the sludge, e.g. in a sewage treatment plant
  • Conditioning for the drying process
  • Feed into the drying system
  • Application of contact and convection heat
  • Continuous movement of the sludge
  • Removal of moisture
  • Collection of the dried sludge
  • Disposal or recycling

Dewatering and drying sludge - how the process works

At the heart of the modular systems from michel SLUDGE-DRYING-SYSTEMS is the innovative drying processwhich takes place in a single integrated machine. The Application of heat and continuous movement is targeted to efficiently evaporate the water from the sludge.

Through the use of state-of-the-art technologies, such as low-temperature drying and our IntelligentDrySystem® energy consumption is minimized. Our system adapts automatically Different types of sludge which ensures a high degree of flexibility and efficiency. This process not only ensures a drastic reduction in the water content down to 10%, but also for increasing the quality of the dry substance.

How our innovative low-temperature drying works

The low temperature dryer from Michel SLUDGE-DRYING-SYSTEMS enable the effective drying of sludge at low temperatures, which preserves the chemical composition of the material while avoiding environmentally harmful emissions. This advanced technology uses controlled heat to evaporate moisture in a targeted manner, which significantly reduces energy consumption and treats the material gently.

In our modular drying systemswhich can be configured in various sizes and according to individual requirements, this technology is integrated to minimize the water content in the sludge and maximize energy efficiency. By using low-temperature dryers in these systems, operating costs can be significantly reduced, CO₂ emissions lowered and wastewater problems avoided.

Unlimited possibilities for sludge utilization after drying

After drying, the processed sludge can be used in a variety of ways. It serves as renewable energy sourcebecomes ecological fertilizers processed or used in the construction industry used as an aggregate. This further processing supports a sustainable circular economy and helps to conserve natural resources.
