NPE specializes in delivering improved groundwater treatment technology and efficiently managing and disposing of effluent from the water treatment process

One of our underlying principles is to deliver sustainable practices that are environmentally sound in theory and practice.

NPE invested more than two years of research and development, resulting in an effluent processing solution that can now be completed onsite. The effluent produced, also known as liquid sludge, was previously removed from the project site for processing and disposal, which incurred additional transportation and scheduling costs. The benefits of this research and development are an environmentally effective process that maintains an economically viable operation, which benefits the client’s bottom line.

Sludge Processing
The Sludge Processing Unit (SPU) is the tool NPE uses within the effluent management system. The press maximises the amount of water recovered from the liquid sludge, significantly reducing sludge volume and converting all liquid waste into a spreadable form that is then classified as solid waste for offsite disposal.

The SPU is custom designed and built to site-specific requirements and is suitable for various applications.

SLUDGE PRESS

The sludge press is a key component of NPE’s waste water and by-product management systems. The majority of NPE’s water  treatment methods produce liquid waste as they remove contaminants from effluent and store them temporarily in a more concentrated form (sludge).
