THE INTENSIFICATION OF THE PROCESS OF SLUDGE DEWATERING OF URBAN SEWAGE
Urban wastewater sludge is highly humid, large and poorly dehydrated. Dehydration of sludge in natural conditions has a number of shortcomings: low effi ciency, sludge areas require huge land areas, worsen the ecological situation, pollute groundwater, soil, etc. One way to eliminate the problem and improve the effi ciency of sludge dewatering in urban wastewater is to switch to mechanical dehydration using fl occulants. The work is devoted to the selection of the most eff ective fl occulant and was carried out on the natural sediments of the right-bank treatment facilities in Krasnoyarsk and the sewage treatment plants in the sett lement of Emelyanovo. The experiment showed that fl occulants Praestol 851BC and Zetag 7485 at a dose of 3 kg / t dry matt er of the precipitate have the greatest eff ectiveness.
