The Roberts’ Microwedge® Sludge Dewatering System is a high quality product with proven reliability and cost effectiveness. The system’s design reflects extensive operational testing and evaluation. Microwedge offers considerable space savings over sand bed and lagoon options. Units are easily installed or replaced and have no direct energy requirements

The Roberts’ Microwedge Sludge Dewatering System has applications in all types of sludge dewatering, from sanitary sewerage through industrial and water treatment sludge. The Microwedge system produces high quality effluent with low DOS, COD, and total suspended solids concentration. Captured sludge dries to a removable cake that is easily scraped from the bed. After scraping, the bed is simply washed and reloaded.

The interlocking modular system is manufactured of high-density plastic. Units are UV stable for outdoor applications, abrasion resistant, and designed for scraping by mechanical equipment. A non-clogging orifice design and unrestricted water flow into the basin collector system provides for continuous system operation.

Microwedge users benefit from a low initial cost, reduced operating costs and maintenance, and significant space savings.
