dewatering result
Optimum dewatering is becoming increasingly important. This is where the VTA mudinator® comes in. It uses ultrasound to ensure that digested and excess sludge can be dewatered much more effectively, resulting in less sludge requiring disposal. This innovative technology achieves optimum effect in combination with the high-performance product VTA Biocitran®.

Solution
The challenge
Deficient dewatering:
Untreated sludge retains large amounts of water, drying becomes inefficient
Our solution
VTA mudinator®
The VTA mudinator® changes the structure of sludge by using ultrasound prior to dewatering. This enables a better charge balance with the polymer
The result
Improvement in dewatering of up to five percentage points
- Saving of disposal costs
- Optimisation of conditioning agents and addition of polymer
1. VTA system products
By preconditioning the sludge with the system product VTA Biocitran® before adding the polymer, the dewatering performance can be increased and the consumption of polymer flocculants reduced.
2. Innovations in water technology
VTA mudinator® changes the sludge structure through the use of ultrasound before dewatering. This enables better charge equalisation with the polymer.
Our water technology also manufactures polymer dissolving stations and dosing systems customised for wastewater treatment plants. This enables the optimum preparation and maturation of polymers for subsequent sludge dewatering (EURODOS).
3. Polymer flocculants
VTA offers an extensive range of products in terms of polymer flocculants for sludge dewatering. Polymere with different molecular weights, degrees of cross-linking and charge densities can be customised to the respective sludge properties and dewatering units. This means that highly efficient dewatering results can be achieved based on an analysis of the on-site situation by our scientists and process engineers.
VTA in practice
Greater return with this power duo
The VTA mudinator® uses ultrasound to ensure that digested and excess sludge can be dewatered much more effectively.
Refining sewage sludge instead of disposing of it
A pilot project for the carbonation of sewage sludge in Saxony is unique in Europe. Here, a MicroTurbine from VTA plays an important role.
Impressive premiere
The first results of a VTA GSD disintegration plant operating in Romania are extremely positive.
Effective sludge reduction
In view of reforms designed to regulate the utilisation of sewage sludge, the focus is again back on optimisation of the digestion process.
Savings for Traunstein – energy generation with disintegration
VTA’s countercurrent disintegration (GSD) approach has proved extremely attractive.
Cost-effective sludge dewatering
The VTA mudinator® is a world first in the dewatering of sewage sludge.
Reducing disposal costs with the VTA mudinator®
Optimum sludge dewatering is more important than ever – not least because of steadily rising disposal costs.
VTA Biomaltan® - Biorevolution
Clean water through the strength of nature: this can now be taken literally thanks to the world innovation VTA Biomaltan®.
VTA mudinator® and VTA Biocitran®
Two world firsts from VTA set new standards in the dewatering of sewage sludge, making utilisation and disposal much more cost-effective.
First-rate values as a bonus
Sustainably treated
The treatment plant in the spa town of Bad Abbach was struggling with poor settling properties and, above all, scum.
