Mobile Sludge Dewatering Plant Module D

Mobile sludge dewatering plant Module D is a complete sludge treatment system based on the proven Esmil-Tsurumi MDQ screw press technology. All process equipment is installed inside a standard 20- or 40-foot container, making it an ideal solution for small and medium-sized wastewater treatment plants with limited available space.

The Module D sludge dewatering plant requires only connection to the sludge feed, power supply and auxiliary systems, allowing the system to start operation almost immediately after installation on site.

This flexibility makes Module D a practical solution for both permanent and temporary installations, including capacity increases, plant upgrades, maintenance shutdowns and emergency sludge treatment situations.

Mobile Sludge Dewatering Plant: Where Module D Is Used

Mechanical sludge dewatering plant Module D enables efficient dewatering of sludge wherever it is required. The unit can operate both as a stationary installation and as a mobile sludge dewatering solution, providing flexible treatment capacity for municipal and industrial wastewater treatment plant.

Typical applications include:

• Municipal wastewater treatment plants
• Water treatment plants
• Food processing industry
• Biogas and anaerobic digestion plants
• Oil and gas industry

Key Advantages of the Module D Mobile Sludge Dewatering Unit

The Module D mobile sludge dewatering plant combines proven MDQ multi-disc screw press technology with a compact containerized design, providing a reliable and ready-to-deploy solution for municipal and industrial sludge treatment. Designed to simplify installation and operation, the unit delivers efficient mechanical sludge dewatering while minimizing engineering effort and operating costs.

Ready-to-Use Solution

The entire mechanical sludge dewatering system is preassembled in a container at the Esmil production facility. Delivered to site fully prepared for operation, the unit requires only connection to utilities and simple configuration before start-up.

High Dewatering Efficiency

The system is based on the Esmil-Tsurumi MDQ multi-disc screw press, one of the most reliable and efficient technologies for sludge dewatering. With a wide capacity range (0.22–950 gpm or 6…11,110 lbsDS/h), the system can meet the needs of both small facilities and large wastewater treatment plants.

Reduced Engineering Effort

The Module D plant is supplied as a complete pre-engineered sludge dewatering system with all required certificates. This significantly reduces design work, simplifies documentation approval and shortens project implementation time.

Low Operating Costs

Dewatering is performed using MDQ multi-disk screw presses, characterized by low consumption of wash water and chemicals. The unique press design enables stable operation for over 50,000 working hours with minimal maintenance requirements.

Compact Design

Installed in a standard 20- or 40-foot container, the Module D sludge dewatering unit occupies only 172–344 ft², making it ideal for sites with limited space such as wastewater treatment plants, industrial facilities or marine installations.

Odor Control

The containerized mechanical sludge dewatering plant can be equipped with an integrated air purification system that minimizes odor emissions and reduces the required sanitary protection zones.

Easy Operation

Our sludge dewatering station is fully automated and can be monitored and controlled remotely, including via smartphone. Flexible process parameter settings allow easy adaptation to varying sludge characteristics.

Mobility

Built on a robust container structure, Module D mobile sludge dewatering plant can be easily transported and deployed at different locations using standard transport methods.

Scalability

System capacity can be increased quickly by installing additional dewatering drums in the press or by adding additional modules, allowing the sludge dewatering capacity to grow together with plant requirements.

Flexible Configuration

A wide range of optional equipment is available, including sludge transport systems, dosing units, different automation levels, climate control solutions and other customized features depending on specific sludge treatment and dewatering requirements.
