TSURUMI MDQ/MDC Series is an organic sludge dehydrator in which the feature of multi-disc dehydrator is added on the principle of the screw press dehydrator. The cylinder screen, that incorporates the screw shaft, is comprised of a large number of fixed discs and movable discs that are placed alternately. Since only the movable discs move by contacting the outer periphery of the rotating screw, it has made the dehydrator immune to clogging.
Tsurumi’s dehydrators feature unitized construction that integrates all necessary accessories, and can be more easily installed and are very compact compared with belt presses and centrifugal dehydrators. The dehydrators boast lower noise, reduced energy consumption, and require less water for flushing, thus providing an economical and eco-friendly solution to dehydration applications.This dehydrator can be, in addition to the use for excess sludge generated from various types of wastewater treatment methods, used for low concentration sludge (about 0.5%) and also for oily sludge or DAF floth. It saves energy as it is operated by small-sized motors. Moreover, the dehydrator does not produce noise and vibration problems, since the screw shaft rotates in a very low speed.
