1982.4
Belt Filter-type Sludge Thickener
KM series
1991.4
VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press/Thickener
(1st generation)
The 1st generation of VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press/Thickener. The unique sludge processing mechanism with the self-cleaning filter mesh has done away with the concept of using flushing water for clog prevention.
1992.3
VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press/Thickener
(2nd generation)
Newly adapted, laminated ring-type core unit, VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press/Thickener has evolved into the 2nd generation and established the foundation for VOLUTE™ technology, which has been incorporated into successive versions.
1992.5
VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press ECONO TS series
Integrating a sludge conditioning tank, a novel idea, has enabled high capture rates of solid contents to be obtained, and tremendously enhanced sludge treatment efficiency. This is the preceding series of the current EC series.
1996.4
Biodryer Dell Compo DC series
A sludge dewatering and fermentation system for community wastewater treatment plant purposes.
Producing fermented fertilizer from sludge realized « zero-emission » of sludge and « local production for local consumption » of sludge.
1997.4
VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press MS series
(Japan Sewage Works Agency standard specification)
In joint research with the Japan Sewage Works Agency, AMCON demonstrated the world’s first direct dewatering of sludge from OD reactor tanks. Direct dewatering of low-concentration sludge from OD reactor (aeration) tanks eliminated thickening and storage tank investment and operation costs.
2001.4
VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press EC series
The series succeeding the VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press ECONO TS series. A long-selling product, changing the material of the sludge conditioning tank material from steel to stainless steel has improved durability and lowered costs.
2003.4
Sludge Dryer Solapy SP/SL series
A sludge dryer developed from a customer request for further sludge reduction. Reducing the amount of dewatered sludge by drying has sharply reduced treatment costs of the customer. Two versions, with electric or steam heat sources, are available.
2004.10
VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press ES series
Available as a lower cost alternative to the EC series.
An affordable price was realized by eliminating the sludge conditioning tank.
2009.2
VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press ES-350 series
Based on high demand, a larger throughput of VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press. The throughput of this series is twice as large as that of the previously largest model and has enhanced the scope of application of VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press.
2011.5
VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press VDC series
(3rd generation)
Succeeding the merit of the existing VOLUTE™ series lineup, the first model to mount the further evolved « Advanced VOLUTE™ » core unit. sharply reducing the required amount of periodic replacement parts used to retain dewatering performance.
