Teknobag Draimad
A low-energy sludge dewatering system using high-strength geotextile bags for effective volume reduction and solids containment.
Overview
What is Teknobag Draimad?
Teknobag Draimad is an innovative sludge dewatering technology that uses specially engineered geotextile bags to dewater and contain sludge, slurries, and other high-moisture waste materials. The system offers a passive, gravity-driven alternative to energy-intensive mechanical dewatering equipment.
Sludge is pumped into the geotextile bags, where water drains through the permeable fabric while solids are retained. Over time, the contained solids consolidate and dry further through evaporation, achieving significant volume reductions of up to 90% or more.
The Teknobag Draimad system is particularly well-suited for applications where simplicity, low energy consumption, and minimal chemical usage are priorities. Its modular nature allows it to be deployed rapidly at virtually any site, with minimal civil works or infrastructure requirements.
Process
How Teknobag Draimad Works
Sludge Conditioning
Sludge is optionally conditioned with a small dose of polymer to improve flocculation and enhance drainage performance through the geotextile fabric.
Bag Filling
Conditioned sludge is pumped into the high-strength geotextile bags. Multiple fill cycles may be performed to maximize the volume of solids captured per bag.
Gravity Dewatering
Water drains through the permeable geotextile fabric under gravity, producing clear filtrate while retaining solids within the bag.
Consolidation & Drying
Retained solids consolidate over time and further dry through solar evaporation, achieving a high-solids cake suitable for disposal or beneficial reuse.
