ABCO Water is proud to be the exclusive Australian Distributor for AMCON's VOLUTE™ Sludge Dewatering System Screw Press technology. Established in Japan in 1974, AMCON invented "multi-disc screw press" technology in 1991, giving birth to a whole new genre of sludge dewatering.
AMCON has installed more than 5,000 VOLUTE™ systems in 77 countries, for both industrial and municipal applications. AMCON has had a presence in Australia since 2006 and has delivered 15 sludge dewatering projects, including for municipal wastewater (sewage) treatment plants. AMCON's screw press is equipped with unique VOLUTE™ technology, which allows dewatering of sludge while automatically self-cleaning the filter mesh.
ABCO Water can assist with equipment selection and provide a complete package with additional equipment and AS3000 compliant control system. A Volute™ Dewatering Press can be either stand-alone or as part of a complete treatment system as post treatment to other technologies, including wastewater screening units where upstream solids removal is required prior to the dewatering stage.
A Geobag (GB) is a simple cost-effective method of dewatering sludge. It uses a specialised geotextile bag to remove water from sludge, sediment, or other fine-grained materials. It is a containment and dewatering solution commonly employed in environmental remediation, construction, and wastewater treatment.
ABCO Water's standard Geobag sludge dewatering systems include 2 x steel skip bins with geobags (twin-alternating configuration) and are typically used for dewatering sludge produced by wastewater (sewage) treatment plants. Supernatant or liquid wastewater is transferred back to the balance tank (recycled) via either the wastewater pump station or a dedicated return sump. GB systems can be either stand-alone or as part of a complete treatment system or as post treatment to other technologies.
A Wastewater Screen, also known as a screening device or bar screen, is a mechanical structure used in wastewater (sewage) treatment plants to remove large solids, debris, and other non-biodegradable materials from raw sewage or wastewater before it enters the treatment process.
The Wastewater Screen typically consists of parallel vertical or inclined bars or wires spaced at intervals. As sewage flows through the screen, the bars or wires trap large objects such as sticks, rags, plastics, and other debris, preventing them from entering downstream treatment processes such as pumps, pipes, and biological treatment units.
Wastewater Screens are essential for protecting pumps, piping, and other equipment from damage caused by large solids, as well as preventing clogging and blockages in the treatment system. They help maintain the efficiency and effectiveness of the treatment process while also reducing the risk of operational disruptions and costly repairs.
Water Softening (WS) is an ion exchange process which involves passing hard water through a resin bed containing sodium ions. Calcium and magnesium ions in the water are exchanged for sodium ions on the resin beads, softening the water. Periodically, the resin bed is regenerated by flushing it with a brine solution to recharge the sodium ions. This process removes hardness minerals, reduces scale buildup, and improves water quality.
ABCO Water’s Water Softening (WS) plants are used for hardness reduction to prevent scale buildup on downstream piping and equipment. WS plants can be either stand-alone or as part of a complete treatment system.
Technical Note: Softening is frequently utilized as a specialized pre-treatment stage for reverse osmosis desalination plants to prevent membrane scaling. By managing hardness at the intake, these systems also serve as a foundational step for high-purity Demineralised (Ultrapure) Water Plants in industrial and power generation sectors.
Ultrafiltration (UF) is a membrane-based separation process used to remove suspended solids, bacteria, viruses, and large molecules from water. It operates on the principle of size exclusion, where a semi-permeable membrane with precise pore sizes allows only small molecules to pass through while blocking larger particles. The typical degree of filtration is 0.01–0.1 micron depending on membrane selection.
ABCO Water’s Ultrafiltration (UF) plants are used for reducing Total Suspended Solids (TSS) and turbidity. UF plants can be either stand-alone or as part of a complete treatment system as pre or post treatment to other technologies.
