Sodimate Deutschland GmbH

As part of the modernisation of the Valff sewage treatment works, Sodimate supplied a complete sludge conveyance system for its client in France. This system ensures the transport of sludge from the mechanical dewatering stage through to final storage. Following dewatering using two screw presses, the sludge is collected, conveyed and then distributed across three solar drying lines. This process enables the operator to reduce energy consumption for sludge dewatering and drying by a factor of nine, thereby fully aligning with its ambitious strategy for the energy transition. Once drying is complete, the dried sludge is collected at the other end of the greenhouse and transported for final disposal. Main components supplied: - ️Collection and conveyance of the dewatered sludge At the outlet of the two screw presses, the dewatered sludge is first collected by a Sodimate screw conveyor. A second screw conveyor then transports the sludge to the distribution system in the solar drying greenhouse. These initial conveying stages ensure the continuous transport of the dewatered sludge from the mechanical dewatering stage to the drying process. - ️Distribution in the solar drying greenhouse The sludge is then fed into a…
