The MSP multi-disc dehydrator press is a equipment designed to reduce the volume of liquid sludge coming from wastewater treatment plants, through the dehydration process, before its final disposal in landfills or recovery processes.

The dehydration equipment processes sludge from water treatment plants, flocculating and dehydrating it. During the process, the sludge is flocculated by intermediate of appropriate dynamic agitation and subjected to compression between the screw and the rings in the cylinder, allowing the effective separation of water from sludge.

The MSP multi-disc dewatering press is capable of achieving a significant solid concentration in dewatered sludge, commonly achieving a sicity from 20 to 25% for sludge from municipal water treatment plants.

The MSP system has several comparative advantages, highlighting the low energy consumption and washing water, eliminating the need for acoustic insulation and requiring a reduced maintenance cost. Furthermore, its operation does not require specialized personnel, contributing to a significant savings in operational costs.

The manufacturer estimates an approximate useful life of two years for the movable rings and five years for the screw. It is recommended to follow a preventive maintenance schedule as specified in the equipment manual, in order to guarantee its optimized performance throughout the useful operating time.
