The present invention relates to processes and apparatus for sludge dewatering, conditioning, drying, conditioning, handling and placement for disposal or reuse principally but not exclusively waterworks and wastewater sludge, biosolids, and aerobic granular sludge. The present invention seeks to replace the traditional methods of treatment that moves sludge normally by pumping through a series of stationary processing units to a bag or liner manufactured from woven flax/hessian/burlap jute family of natural biodegradable textile material to provide a uniform mesh that acts initially for the filtering and retention of solids and the drainage of free water for dewatering and later for the movement of air for drying, pasteurisation, hygeinisation, conditioning, and mixing of sludge as required. The processes are applied to the collected sludge within the biodegradable bags that are themselves adaptable to the final reuse option that is intended including biomass energy creation. The present invention relies principally on gravity drainage, natural ventilation, recovered waste energy, insulation of collected energy, and solar energy and efficient material movement and has a much reduced carbon footprint in comparison with traditional methods. <Figure 2> |
