HTE3 Triple-Belt System | Food-Grade Explosion-Proof

The HTE3 Series Triple-Belt Gravitational Thickening And Dewatering System (Food-Grade Explosion-Proof Type) is a specialized industrial solution designed to safely process flammable food-related slurry waste (e.g., high-alcohol content food residues, volatile organic matter-laden byproducts) while meeting strict food safety standards, merging explosion-proof safety, hygiene compliance, and Efficient Dewatering.

It delivers three core benefits in one unit: food-grade hygiene, explosion-proof safety, and high-efficiency dewatering—eliminating the need for separate specialized equipment. The triple-belt configuration ensures high solids capture rates (reducing waste volume) while the explosion-proof design mitigates fire risks from flammable food residues (e.g., ethanol-rich slurries). Its food-grade construction complies with hygiene regulations (e.g., easy-to-clean surfaces, non-toxic materials), preventing contamination of food-related waste streams. Additionally, the automated, sealed operation minimizes operator exposure to hazardous or food-contaminated materials, enhancing workplace safety and hygiene—making it a practical choice for food industry waste management.

Structurally, this system integrates food-grade stainless steel components, explosion-proof-certified filtration belts, a sealed Gravitational Thickening zone, multi-roller dewatering sections (with explosion-proof motors), and an intrinsically safe control panel (shown in the image). The food-grade materials (304/316 stainless steel, non-toxic coatings) ensure compliance with food safety standards, while smooth, crevice-free surfaces enable thorough cleaning to prevent bacterial growth. The sealed thickening zone contains flammable vapors (e.g., from fermented food waste), and triple belts move slurry through gravity drainage and gradual roller pressure (adjustable for different food residue types) to extract moisture. All electrical parts meet explosion-proof standards, and the control panel regulates parameters (belt speed, pressure) without ignition risks.

It is ideal for food and beverage processing facilities (e.g., breweries, distilleries, fermented food plants), edible oil production sites, and food waste treatment centers handling flammable food-related slurries (e.g., alcohol-rich fermentation residues, volatile organic matter-laden processing waste). It excels at safely dewatering food waste—for example, reducing the volume of high-alcohol brewery sludge for compliant disposal, treating flammable oil processing residues to lower transport risks, or processing fermented food byproducts while maintaining hygiene standards. Whether integrated into a food plant’s waste system or deployed as a standalone unit, this system delivers reliable, safe, and compliant performance. It enhances food safety compliance, reduces hazardous waste disposal costs, and protects personnel, meeting the needs of food industry operators and environmental teams managing flammable food waste.
