Excelente capacidad de ampliación
This model offers an additional thickening step integrated into the flocculation tank, enabling it to handle even lower concentration sludges and raw wastewaters without compromising throughput or cake dryness. Compared to our standard FS series, the additional thickening step increases the capacity by up to 50% when dealing with low concentration sludges.

Modos de control avanzados para maximizar el rendimiento
Several advanced control modes for the sludge feed pump, polymer dosage equipment, and V-Screw speed constantly work together to optimize and stabilize the dewatering performance. This further reduces the required manpower for operation, decreases polymer consumption, and ensures that the machine is always processing the maximum amount of sludge. Having all parameters connected and controlled from a single point enhances user-friendliness and avoids complicated setup procedures.
Sin atascos, incluso con lodos aceitosos
The machine has a filter element (cylinder) that consists of alternating layers of Fixed Rings and Moving Rings, with spacers in between to maintain a gap that allows filtrate to escape. Inside the cylinder, a single screw conveys and subsequently pressurizes the sludge through the cylinder towards the end plate. As the screw rotates, it drives the moving rings up and down, which cleans the filtrate gap, creating a clog-free and self-cleaning mechanism. Only a very small amount of water at low pressure is periodically used to gently clean the rings from the outside. The design delivers stable dewatering performance even with oily sludge.

No requiere espesamiento previo
The VOLUTE™ integrates pre-thickening, thickening and dewatering into a single machine. This allows direct dewatering of both high- and low-concentration sludges without any pre-thickening system. The GS series especially, with its integrated pre-thickening TFU, is suitable for feed concentrations as low as 0.2% TS, and even below. This enables dewatering of aerobic sludge straight from the aeration tank. This eliminates the costs for construction and operation of thickening and storage systems and reduces odors. On top, it reduces phosporus and nitrogen emmissions back into the waste water treatment plant, by dewatering the sludge when it’s as fresh as possible.

- Above throughput is calculated as approximate and may vary depending on sludge conditions. For model selection, please contact AMCON.
- Throughput of each model is based on sludge cake with 20±5% solids content.
- There is no definite upper limit on inlet sludge concentration; however, the target sludge must be flowable.
- All the figures above are provided for the reference purpose only based on the standard design. The design may change without notice.

PROCESS FLOW
-
01
Thickening Flocculation Unit (TFU)
The TFU is a pre-thickener that is integrated into the flocculation tank. It increases the feed concentration to the cylinder unit(s). -
02
Cylinder Unit
En la primera parte de la unidad de cilindros -la zona de espesamiento- el lodo se espesa aún más sin aplicar mucha presión. En la segunda parte de la unidad de cilindros, la zona de deshidratación, se aumenta la presión sobre los lodos para extraer el agua. -
03
Outlet for Dewatered Cake
The end plate applies additional pressure to the sludge to get it to its final dry solids content.
