Sludge treatment is an important link in municipal engineering. However, sometimes we encounter a problem - the sludge does not form. So, how to solve this problem? The answer is to use a sludge conditioner. In this article, technical engineers at Works Chemical will describe in detail the solution of sludge conditioner to the problem of unformed municipal sludge pressing.

First, understand the root of the problem:

The moisture content of municipal sludge is high, the viscosity is large, if not properly treated, directly pressed into blocks, it is easy to appear the pressing mud is not formed. This is mainly caused by excessive moisture and viscosity.

2. Add sludge conditioner:

Sludge conditioner is a chemical agent specially used to reduce sludge viscosity and improve its moisture properties. By adding an appropriate amount of sludge conditioner, the viscosity of the sludge can be effectively reduced, and its moisture properties can be improved, so that it is easier to be pressed into blocks.

Third, the mechanism of sludge conditioner:

The sludge conditioner usually contains some substances that can break the hydrogen bonds between the molecules of the sludge, such as polycations, polyanions, etc. These substances can absorb and neutralize the negative charge in the sludge, thereby reducing the viscosity of the sludge. At the same time, they can also make it easier for the water molecules in the sludge to diffuse outwards, improving the water properties of the sludge.

Fourth, the effect of the use of sludge conditioner:

Sludge compaction performance of municipal sludge can be obviously improved by using sludge conditioner. Not only is the pressed mud easier to form, but also the shaped block is harder and not easy to break. In addition, due to the improved moisture properties of the sludge, the volume of the treated sludge will also be reduced, helping to reduce environmental stress during subsequent treatment.
