Description
Dewatering of Thick (20% solids) as well as Thin slurries (down to 0.1%solids) with dryness adjustable between 25% and 55% (depending on application and model). Ideal for waste products such as dairy effluent, piggery waste and composting facilities.
Operating Principles
The PSS is fed by pump or gravity from a holding tank. It takes raw wet waste in one end and dry compost material comes out the other. In the slotted screen, the fibrous solids are screened out from the liquid. The fibers build up a layer which also acts as a filter to separate finer particles from the liquid. The auger flights convey this layer to the solids outlet. The screen surface is cleaned and a new filter layer is formed. The dryness of the solid cake can be adjusted.
