EVT: A Game Changer in Environmental & Water Treatment

The environmental and water treatment industries are constantly evolving, with new technologies emerging to address the challenges of pollution, resource scarcity, and sustainability. One such innovation is the EVT, which stands for Electro-Vacuum Technology. EVT is a powerful tool that enhances the performance of various water and wastewater treatment processes, particularly in dewatering applications.

How does EVT work?

EVT combines electrostatic attraction and vacuum technology to improve the efficiency of solid-liquid separation. It leverages the principle that charged particles are attracted to opposite charges. In EVT, an electric field is applied to the filter medium, making it more attractive to suspended solids in the feed slurry. This allows for higher cake solids content and reduced filtrate volume, leading to significant improvements in the dewatering process.

Benefits of EVT:

• Improved dewatering efficiency: EVT results in significantly drier filter cakes with higher solids content.
• Reduced filtrate volume: By removing more water from the sludge, EVT minimizes the volume of filtrate requiring further treatment.
• Increased filter cake capacity: The enhanced dewatering capability allows for higher filter cake loading, leading to greater productivity.
• Lower energy consumption: EVT requires less energy compared to traditional dewatering methods, making it an environmentally friendly option.
• Reduced chemical usage: EVT minimizes the need for flocculants and other chemicals, further enhancing its sustainability.
