28 Importance of non-chemical dose in sludge disposal Closed System - Refrain from using chemicals because generated water from sludge disposal goes back to receiving wells. Natural thickening Dewatering by using filter press dehydrator (debut of full-automatic, high-efficient dehydrator with non-chemical dosing) For Recycling - To reuse treated sludge, chemical residual is not desirable. Non-chemical dosing system Non Chemical Treatment 28
