sedimenthåndtering
Sedimenthåndtering refers to the set of methods and technologies for managing sediments generated or encountered in water systems, wastewater treatment, dredging operations, mining, and industrial processes. The aim is to reduce environmental impact, enable safe disposal, or enable reuse of dredged or produced sediments.
Processes include sedimentation and clarifications in water treatment, where suspended solids settle out in tanks; filtration
Dewatering and volume reduction are common steps, using thickeners, centrifuges, belt press or filter presses; drying
Applications span municipal wastewater treatment, stormwater sediment management, river, harbor and coastal dredging, lake and reservoir
