Sludge enhancers (also known as new sludge conditioners) have significant advantages in the field of sludge treatment, especially in reducing the water content of sludge and replacing traditional lime and ferric chloride. The following is a detailed explanation of its advantages:
1. Reduce water content
Sludge enhancer can significantly reduce the moisture content of sludge. By changing the surface structure of the sludge and reducing the load on the solid surface of the sludge, this chemical agent can effectively release the free water and interstitial water in the sludge. After the use of sludge enhancer conditioning sludge, in the case of plate and frame filter press and other equipment, the moisture content of the sludge can be reduced from more than 90% to 40%-60%.
2. Alternative to traditional medicine
Substitute lime:
Lime added to the sludge will produce sludge increment, and it is easy to block the filter cloth and shorten the service life of the filter cloth. The amount of sludge synergist added is small, the reduction is obvious, will not cause corrosion to the equipment, but also reduce the replacement frequency of filter cloth, and save business operating costs.
The sludge treated with sludge booster is more conducive to subsequent incineration, brick making, composting and other disposal methods, while the sludge added with lime is not easy to burn and can only be landfill.
Replacement of ferric chloride:
Ferric chloride is corrosive and will corrode pipes or filter cloth, while sludge booster is not corrosive to filter cloth and pipe and can extend its service life.
Sludge enhancer does not contain chloride ions, which is more favorable for the subsequent transport of sludge to the power plant for incineration, because the power plant has extremely high requirements for chloride ions, and the sludge power plant after using ferric chloride treatment is usually not recycled.
3. Other advantages
Improve production efficiency: The use of sludge enhancer with plate and frame filter press can effectively improve the mud pressing efficiency and shorten the mud pressing cycle, thus improving the production efficiency of the entire sludge treatment process.
Environmentally friendly: sludge enhancer has less impact on the environment, no secondary pollution, and is more in line with environmental protection requirements.
Easy operation: The sludge synergist is convenient to use, without complex operation process, and reduces the labor intensity of the staff.
Cost reduction: In the long run, the cost of using sludge synergists is lower than that of traditional lime, ferric chloride and other methods, which can save a lot of costs for enterprises.
In summary, sludge enhancers have significant advantages in reducing sludge moisture content and replacing traditional lime and ferric chloride. The use of this new type of sludge conditioner not only improves the efficiency of sludge treatment, but also reduces the cost of treatment, and reduces the environmental pollution, which has important application value.
