A common variant on the gravity thickener design is the picket fence thickener. This technology is fitted with a stirrer comprising a series of relatively closely-spaced vertical arms, and is therefore similar in appearance to a picket fence. For both designs, the sludge enters the centre of a cylindrical tank and flows out to the periphery.

Thickener dewatering performance prediction. A pseudo two-dimensional thickener modelling capability has been developed to quantify the role of flocculants in dewatering. This involves a steady state thickening calculation algorithm [2] which combines free settling rate theory [16] with suspension bed consolidation theory [3].

The area that it is discharged into is called the WELL of the thickener. This is circular piece of metal open at both ends. It is deep enough to extend below the surface of the INTERPACE. The interface is that point where the solids of the thickener and the water that is relatively clean meet. The SOLIDS may also he called the UNDERFLOW.

The High-Rate thickeners became popular in the mid 1980's and are relatively newcomers to the sedimentation line of equipment. As already discussed previously Thickeners are a major component in a plant layout and occupy large spaces which may be saved by introducing high-rate machines. Furthermore, they are normally positioned far away from ...

As the load in the thickener settles to the bed, the Torque on the rake arms will be climbing. Torque is nothing more than a rotary force being applied from the rake arms to the drive shaft. It is the degree of torque that indicates to the operator the load that is in the thickener and when the rake arms have to be lifted.

Let's watch a short video showing how a gravity belt thickener operates. The incoming secondary sludge ranges from 0.3 - 0.6% total solids while the thickened sludge leaving the belt ranges from 4 - 6% total solids. This indicates that the sludge leaves the gravity belt thickener about 10 times thicker than when it entered.
