  • Paddle drying is a high efficient sludge drying process. In order to reduce sludge capacity by decreasing the sludge moisture content and provide the basis and reference for later engineering application and further upgrading reconstruction projects, some experiments were done using paddle dryer. Taking the Beijing sewage sludge as sample through paddle drying process, the effects of retention time, height of outlet damper, sludge allowance, and heat exchange area of the dryer on evaporation rate, the moisture content of sludge, and the processing efficiency were researched. Besides those, different factors including treatment efficiency, the data analysis of engineering application were investigated. The optimal operating conditions and parameters were steam pressure of 0.5~0.8 MPa, evaporation rate of 14~21.8 kg/(m2·h). The moisture content of sewage sludge after drying was below 40%.

Abstract: Paddle drying is a high efficient sludge drying process. In order to reduce sludge capacity by decreasing the sludge moisture content and provide the basis and reference for later engineering application and further upgrading reconstruction projects, some experiments were done using paddle dryer. Taking the Beijing sewage sludge as sample through paddle drying process, the effects of retention time, height of outlet damper, sludge allowance, and heat exchange area of the dryer on evaporation rate, the moisture content of sludge, and the processing efficiency were researched. Besides those, different factors including treatment efficiency, the data analysis of engineering application were investigated. The optimal operating conditions and parameters were steam pressure of 0.5~0.8 MPa, evaporation rate of 14~21.8 kg/(m2·h). The moisture content of sewage sludge after drying was below 40%.
