Removing the water content (dewatering) of the sludge will dry the sludge, making it lighter and easier to move and reuse. (Reuse depends on whether the sludge is toxic and has to be stored safely or, as in human sludge from a sewerage farm, used as fertilizer by farmers, etc ).

What is the impact of sludge density?

Sludge density affects the settling characteristics, dewatering efficiency, and treatment processes in wastewater treatment plants. Higher sludge density can improve settling and dewatering, leading to more efficient treatment and reduced processing costs. Conversely, lower sludge density may require additional treatment steps or longer processing times.
