Somat Dewatering Technology...
The best choice of mechanical dewatering equipment for the small wastewater treatment plant
To be cost effective, a sludge thickening or dewatering system should be simple, need only minimal operational and maintenance
attention, and be energy efficient. The Som-A-SystemŽ operates with the push of a button for almost immediate
start-up or shutdown of discharge. Routine monitoring and periodic cleaning are the only activities required, and this
can be accomplished with one worker on a part-time basis, if necessary.
Plants with no dewatering capability face severe economic problems due to the distances liquid sludge must be transported for
disposal, plus environmental standards that are becoming more stringent each year. Whether through sludge thickening or complete dewatering
of output material, Som-A-SystemŽ has proven to be successful for such plants by reducing hauling costs alone by as much as 70%. It is a state-of-the-art, cutting-edge solution that works.
