The manufacturer, Huber Technology, provides modern equipment for municipal and industrial water, wastewater and sludge treatment. They note that this model was designed to be more efficient than previous versions, featuring a faster start-up and shut-down process, and easily accessible areas for the filter elements.

The new model design also allows for maintenance and inspections to be completed without the removal of unnecessary larger components of the machine. Additionally, the design features a new rotating washing system that allows the dewatering process to still take place while the filter elements are being cleaned.

These screw presses would be a great addition to a city or county looking to update or alter the way they remove water from sludge.

The starting bid for the Huber screw presses is $500k and they are at auction until January 22, 2020.
