The performance of dewatering equipment is enhanced by removing clogging which could considerably block the discharge of the filtered liquid.
AMCON’s dewatering press is equipped with unique VOLUTE™ technology, which allows dewatering sludge while automatically self-cleaning the filter mesh.
VOLUTE™ is structured with a filter element that consists of two types of Rings: a Fixed Ring and a Moving Ring; and a screw that thrusts the filter element and transfers and pressurizes the sludge. The gaps between the Rings and the screw pitch are designed to gradually get narrower towards the direction of sludge cake outlet and the inner pressure of the filter element increases due to the volume compression effect, which thickens and dewaters the sludge.
AMCON’s VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press was awarded with the bronze prize for its superb technology at “China International Industry Fair 2007”, which was held in Shanghai in November 2007. Only 30 companies won the prizes out of 1775 exhibitors in this fair. It was the moment the VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press was widely accepted in China.
CIIF 2007, sponsored by the Chinese government, was one of the biggest events of the industry fairs held in China, comprising 1775 exhibitors, 4522 booths and over 90,000 visitors. The primary reason for winning the bronze prize lies in its innovative clog-free construction, which is distinct from conventional sludge dewatering equipments.
In Amsterdam AQUATEC Exhibition 2004, one of the big three international events for water treatment technology held biennially in Netherlands, AMCON’s VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press was nominated for an innovative award. We are honored to be recognized by specialists in the field of water treatment technology, where utilization of foreign technologies is rapidly growing.
March 2015, VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press won the Innovation Award at WEX Global Forum 2015, a business matching event focused on energy and water, which is held by a British company WEX every year. This event, sponsored by multi-national companies in the industry, promotes innovation of technologies that will save the environment of the Earth. The judgment focused on the feasibility of bringing value in the market and VOLUTE™ was assessed as the most innovative technology.
