AS-H Belt Thickener

The Alfa Laval AS-H Belt Press is an efficient and cost-effective solution for reducing the volume of municipal sludge and other flocculated sludges to produce a dry, dense sludge. Key benefits include reduced energy and polymer consumption, combined with minimal maintenance and operator attention requirements. Therefore, trouble-free operation significantly reduces both costs and plant management hassles.

The simple design of the Belt Press offers numerous advantages for dewatering all types of flocculated sludges. The patented sludge/polymer mixing valve utilizes a unique method for pumping and mixing polymers to ensure optimal turbulent mixing. Subsequently, the patented ramp feed section provides consistent loading across the entire filter area to maximize filtration characteristics. The result is excellent consistency in a completely sealed, low-odor unit.

Many maintenance challenges are eliminated through a robust design that includes a simplified belt tensioning and alignment system without complex hydraulics. Fatigue and wear issues associated with the rotation of large components are also eliminated. The design allows for easy operator access to monitor the process. The reliable Belt Press Sludge Dewatering Machine is compact in size and suitable for both indoor and outdoor installation.
