Cost Savings

Features & Benefits

Space Saving

- No need for gravity settling tank, sludge storage tank or flotation unit.
- Belt thickener can be mounted on the top of the belt press when footprint’ constraint.

Optimized BFP Performance

- Dry solids concentration of the sludge entering the belt press is stable (The gravity belt thickener regulates DS%)
- Sludge flowing to the belt press is reduced by 4 to 10 times.

Cost Savings

- Optimized process.
- No need for additional polymer with the BFP.
- Increase of the dry solids loading rate on the belt press by 30% = smaller BFP.
- Adds-on equipment are common to the GBT and BFP.
- Smaller footprint.

Ease of Use

- No maintenance platform.
- Easy supervision of process (flocculation, thickening…)
- Easy maintenance (greasing…)
- Easy change of wear parts.
