The HUBER Disc Thickener S-DISC is a compact, fully enclosed sludge thickening system engineered for dependable, high-efficiency performance with minimal operator supervision. Designed for municipal and industrial sewage sludge - particularly low-solids secondary sludge - it delivers high throughput capacity up to 176 GPM (40 m³/h) while maintaining low operational and life cycle costs.
Key performance benefits:
- High thickening efficiency: >85% sludge volume reduction and solids up to >6% DR with >97% separation efficiency
- Low operating costs: minimal polymer use, low energy consumption (< 0.03 kWh/m³), and wash water requirement < 5%
- Minimal operator attention: requires less than 10 minutes of daily supervision
- Reliable, durable design: slow rotation (<5 rpm), no lubrication needed, stainless steel construction
- Safe, enclosed and adjustable operation: optimized throughput control, odor containment, and easy access for inspection and maintenance
