HySludge® – Modular Sludge Systems for Decentralised Treatment Plants

Across Australia, New Zealand and the Pacific there are hundreds of packaged treatment and decentralised plants that provide sewage treatment for mining operations, camps, communities, towns, villages and resorts.

Managing sludge from these treatment plants presents some challenges – the main being the limited disposal options and the high cost of transporting liquid sludge. HySludge® is a containerised sludge thickening or dewatering system that can process liquid sludge to reduce offsite disposal costs.
