Sludge Thickeners

Diemme® Filtration sludge thickeners represent the culmination of years of experience and a strong commitment to innovation in solid-liquid separation. Designed for a wide range of industries such as mining, chemical, metallurgical, and water treatment, these units ensure superior performance and a low total cost of ownership.

Our approach is based on deep technical knowledge and rigorous research, including extensive laboratory testing to optimize coagulant and flocculant selection and dosing, as well as detailed analysis of rheological and mineralogical conditions for each project.

The structural design of the thickeners is carried out under strict static, dynamic, and seismic analyses, using FEM modeling to maximize durability and efficiency. The incorporation of IIoT technology allows advanced connectivity for real-time process monitoring and control.

Available in “bridge” or “support column” configurations for diameters over 40 meters, and manufactured in steel or concrete depending on project specifications, our thickeners deliver high productivity and consistent performance, perfectly complementing Diemme® Filtration’s filter presses.

At the heart of the process is the feedwell, designed using advanced CFD modeling techniques, which ensures optimal floc formation through controlled mixing of solids and flocculants. This results in efficient flocculant consumption, superior clarity of the overflow, and uniform thickened sludge density, optimizing the overall efficiency of your plant.

Backed by worldwide service support and premium quality components, Diemme® Filtration is your trusted partner for thickening solutions that make a difference.
