Overview

The Komline-FluidQuip Biosolids/Sludge Dryer is engineered for the efficient, safe, and continuous drying of municipal and industrial sludges.It reduces disposal costs, minimizes volume, and converts waste into reusable by-products while achieving Class A biosolids standards in compliance with EPA 503 regulations.Its dual-shaft paddle design ensures high thermal efficiency and consistent drying performance.

Benefits

  • Achieves 90%–99% dry solids for significant volume reduction.
  • Produces Class A biosolids suitable for fertilizer or soil amendment.
  • Reduces hauling and disposal costs.
  • Converts sludge into stable, marketable by-products or fuel.
  • Operates safely with low oxygen levels and minimal odor emissions.
  • High thermal efficiency (~98%) ensures energy savings.
  • Compact installation suitable for municipal plants.

Key Features

The Komline Paddle Sludge Dryer is an indirect heat transfer device that utilizes mechanical agitation to enhance contact with the product being dried. Dual counter-rotating shafts with unique intermeshing wedge-shaped paddles produce intimate mixing, optimize heat transfer, and provide a self-cleaning effect.
