A continuous belt or paddle dryer that shrinks dewatered cake and digested biosolids 3–5× by mass — cutting tipping-fee and hauling spend, freeing up digester capacity, and engineering a documented time-and-temperature profile toward EPA 40 CFR Part 503 Class A pathogen reduction.

A continuous belt or paddle dryer with independently controlled heating zones adapts to dewatered cake, digested biosolids and lagoon residuals alike — corrosion-resistant construction built for the H₂S environment.
Belt-press or centrifuge cake at 18–28% solids, dried down for lighter, cheaper hauling and disposal.
Anaerobically or aerobically digested biosolids dried toward a documented PFRP time-temperature regime.
Long-stored lagoon and pond sludge dewatered and dried for closure, dredging or capacity-recovery projects.
Lime-stabilized cake dried to a stable, lower-volume product without undoing your stabilization work.
Grease-trap, FOG and DAF-heavy co-digestion residuals dried and stabilized for consistent handling.
Alum and lime sludge from drinking-water treatment plants, dried down for lower-cost disposal.
Compact, flexible-footprint units sized for smaller communities and package treatment plants.
We've dried 20+ residue categories across 15+ countries. Send us a sample — we'll run a free trial and prove the result.
A look at the biosolids streams and the continuous line that turns wet cake into a lighter, more manageable product.
Drying isn't about removing water for its own sake — it's about what leaves your gate afterward: fewer truckloads, lower tipping fees, and a documented path toward Class A.
Wet cake is heavy, perishable and priced like a disposal cost with no ceiling. Dried to spec, the same material is lighter to haul, more stable to store, and — with a documented time-temperature regime — a candidate for Class A beneficial reuse. The dryer is the lever between the two.
Every design choice points at one outcome: less to haul, better documentation, and a plant that's easier to run and easier to permit.
3–5× mass reduction means fewer truckloads and lower per-ton disposal or landfill tipping-fee costs — often the single biggest line item in biosolids management.
Zone-controlled temperature and residence time give you the data your engineer needs to document a PFRP regime under 40 CFR Part 503 — opening land-application and beneficial-reuse options.
Draw down standing inventory and processed solids faster — without a costly new digester, tank or lagoon expansion.
±1°C zone control and full data logging give you batch-level moisture and temperature records for state DEP and EPA reporting.
24/7 conveyor operation cuts manual biosolids handling — reducing odor exposure and labor at the plant.
Post-install training, long-term AMC, spares historically under 0.5% of machine value. 88% of our clients come back for their next dryer.
Every biosolids dryer is sized to your solids content, moisture target and throughput. These are the ranges we engineer within:
| Belt width | 700 – 3,250 mm |
| Dryer length | 10 – 45 m |
| Output capacity | 200 – 2,000 kg/hr per line |
| Feed solids (cake) | 15 – 30% dry solids |
| Temperature control | ±1°C (PID, zone-logged) |
| Construction | Stainless steel, corrosion-resistant |
| Heat source | Gas · Steam · Electric · Thermic fluid · Biogas-ready |
| Trial available | Yes — on your own biosolids |
Every biosolids dryer can ship as a fully instrumented, connected system, specified to American standards and built to give your operations team the records regulators ask for.
Allen-Bradley / Siemens PLC with an intuitive HMI: recipe management, ±1°C zone control and one-touch start, stop and changeover.
Plant-wide SCADA plus a secure cloud dashboard — watch every zone, trend and alarm live from your phone, anywhere.
Real-time kWh and energy-per-ton tracking on every zone, so you can see exactly where fuel and power go — biogas-ready.
Vibration, bearing-temperature, motor-current and belt-tracking sensors flag wear early — you fix it on a schedule, not after a breakdown.
Infrared spark/ember detection with high-speed water-spray suppression, engineered to NFPA 654 combustible-dust guidance for dried biosolids.
Over-temperature cut-offs, emergency stops, door and airflow interlocks and fault alarms protect product, people and plant automatically.
Every batch's time and temperature logged for state DEP and EPA Part 503 documentation, audits and permit compliance.
Control panels built to UL 508A and machine wiring to NFPA 79 — with FM and CE options — so it's drop-in ready for U.S. municipal plants.
No guesswork. Your team sees the moisture reduction and mass-balance numbers before your utility commits capital.
Send us your cake solids %, digestion type and target throughput. We assess feasibility fast.
We dry a sample on our pilot unit and show you real moisture-reduction and mass-balance data.
You get a dryer sized to spec, indicative pricing, and pointers on SRF/WIFIA funding routes to discuss with your engineer.
We build in our 60,000 sq.ft. plant, commission on-site, train your operations team and back it with AMC.
"No buy-and-fly." A retained engineering partnership backs every dryer long after commissioning — which is a big reason 88% of our clients come back for their next machine.
Because the dryer is IoT-connected, our engineers can read its live data and often diagnose — even resolve — an issue before a service truck ever rolls.
Critical spares stocked and dispatched fast worldwide. Historically under 0.5% of machine value per year — a total cost of ownership finance teams love.
Scheduled preventive maintenance and priority response keep uptime high and surprises low. We plan the service so your operators don't fight fires.
On-site installation, commissioning and hands-on operator training so your team runs the line confidently and safely from day one.
Process tweaks, capacity upgrades, new-stream trials — a long-term partnership, not a one-time transaction. We stay on the line with you.
Simple, rugged, low-part-count engineering means fewer things to fail — and clients running 4+ years of continuous operation with minimal maintenance.
Our belt and paddle dryers have run in food, agro-waste and industrial sludge applications across 15+ countries. Ask us for current municipal & biosolids project references as our water-sector installed base grows.
Send us your biosolids profile and throughput. We'll size the right dryer, run a free trial, and show you the hauling and disposal-cost upside — usually within 24 hours.
