The advantages of low-energy, high-performance Geotube dewatering for biosolids management
Spinning, squeezing, solar drying, there are many ways to dewater sludge from treatment plants and produce stabilized biosolids that are ready for land application or disposal. Selecting the best approach often considers several factors, including the speed at which dewatering must be completed, the space that’s available at the treatment plant to accommodate the process, and capital and operating costs.
Operators traded wheelbarrows for Bishop Solids Management solution to reduce time and labour in sludge handling
It used to take almost a month to dewater the same volume of sludge that is now done in less than a day at the Meteghan Sewer Treatment Plant (STP) in the Municipality of Clare, Nova Scotia.
How a polymer dosing system can make or break your sludge dewatering process.
Polymer is the secret ingredient for maximizing dewatering and achieving high quality filtrate from the Geotube® containers in our Bishop Solids Management Solution. But selecting the right polymer is not enough to get the best results.
Bishop Solids Management Solution for dewatering and reuse of excess soil
Eliminate the need to truck muddy construction slurry from hydrovac trucks to distant sites for dewatering or disposal. The Bishop Solids Management Solution provides an easy-to-use, affordable process for onsite collection and dewatering of excess soil excavated during urban construction activities.
City of London relies on strength and durability of Geotube® containers for award-winning ash dewatering solution
After dewatering thousands of tonnes of ash, using dozens of Geotube® containers, the Greenway Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP) in London, Ontario reports that the five-year-old system continues to “exceed expectations” for reliability and performance.
Bishop Solids Management Solution — Dewatering for all occasions
We’ve dewatered a lot of stuff over the years.
Everything from ordinary wastewater sludge and excess soil from construction sites, to noxious slurries containing really smelly organics, industrial process wastewater, and even low-level radioactive materials.
How to eliminate sewer surcharges with a simple, low-energy system
Pre-treatment of high-strength wastewater before discharging it to a municipal sewer can be challenging, especially if high levels of BOD, TSS and ammonia are present.
Partial lagoon cleanouts help balance performance and budgets
If you’re going to clean out a cell or two at your wastewater lagoon, there are circumstances when a partial cleanout might be the best, fastest way to quickly fix an urgent capacity or performance issue until the lagoon is ready for a full desludging.
North Rustico WWTF saves on sludge handling with Bishop Solids Management Solution
A compact, non-mechanical polymer mixing system is making sludge dewatering easier and more efficient for the North Rustico Wastewater Treatment Facility (WWRF) in Prince Edward Island.
Why does freezing improve Geotube® dewatering performance?
Geotube containers that are filled late in the year are often left onsite over the winter to experience the dewatering advantages that the freeze-thaw cycle brings. Once the thawing begins, those previously frozen Geotube® containers can give up a lot of water—in some cases up to 50% of their volume.
