HTE3 Series Triple-Belt Thickening & Dewatering System

The HTE3 Series Triple-Belt Gravitational Thickening And Dewatering System is an advanced industrial solution designed to separate solids from liquid slurries (e.g., sludge, wastewater residues) through a continuous, integrated process of Gravitational Thickening and mechanical dewatering, optimizing waste volume reduction and resource recovery.

It delivers two-stage processing in a single unit (thickening followed by dewatering), eliminating the need for separate equipment and streamlining workflow efficiency. The triple-belt configuration maximizes slurry-filtration media contact, achieving high solids capture rates and producing drier cake (reduced moisture content) compared to single-belt systems. Its automated, adjustable operation minimizes manual labor, ensuring consistent performance across varying slurry types. Additionally, the robust industrial build withstands harsh waste treatment environments, while low operational energy demands reduce long-term costs—making it a practical choice for large-scale slurry management.

Structurally, this system integrates three overlapping filtration belts, a dedicated gravitational thickening zone, a multi-roller dewatering section, a user-friendly control panel, and self-cleaning components (shown in the image). The first belt facilitates gravitational thickening: slurry is evenly distributed, and free water drains through the filter media via gravity. The subsequent two belts transport the thickened sludge through a sequence of pressure rollers (gradually increasing force) to extract residual moisture. Adjustable belt tension, roller pressure, and feed rates allow customization for diverse slurry compositions (e.g., municipal sewage sludge, industrial process residues). The control panel regulates operational parameters in real time, while built-in belt wash systems maintain filtration efficiency by preventing clogging.

It is ideal for municipal wastewater treatment plants, industrial facilities (e.g., food processing, mining, chemical manufacturing), and waste management operations generating high-volume slurry waste. It excels at reducing the volume of sludge or liquid residues—for example, preparing municipal sewage sludge for cost-effective disposal, recovering reusable solids from industrial wastewater, or treating agricultural runoff residues. Whether integrated into a centralized waste treatment facility or deployed as a standalone dewatering unit, the HTE3 Series System delivers reliable, high-capacity performance. It enhances waste treatment compliance, lowers disposal costs, and supports sustainable resource management, meeting the needs of facility operators and environmental teams seeking efficient slurry dewatering solutions.
