Pyrofluid™ is a thermal treatment solution allowing for sewage sludge removal.
Overview
It implements a fluidized-bed incinerator. The flue gas operates at 850°C within a matter of seconds ensuring full combustion of the sludge.
Pyrofluid™ allows:
- Urban and industrial sludge removal within plants of variable capacities;
- Heat production;
- Recoverable ashes production;
- Compliance with the strictest standards
FEATURES & BENEFITS
- Sludge removal (pathogen risk);
- Energy recovery:
- Fuel input reduction
- Heat production
- Mineral matter recovery;
- Odors removal;
- Maintenance cost controlled and schedulable;
- Long-term reliability: excellent resistance to high temperature, erosion and corrosion (no moving parts in the hot zones);
- Easy operation (automated);
- 24/7 operation for maximum efficiency.

Applications
The sludge incineration flue gas is used for air heating combustion and to produce heat as warm water or steam.
Depending on physical-chemical characteristics, produced ashes by the Pyrofluid™ incinerator can be:
- Recycled for use within road construction (such as substratum road);
- Incorporated in special concrete (for example, auto performance concrete);
- Discharged to a landfill.
The treatment applied to the flue gas of the Pyrofluid™ incinerator integrates dust extraction and acid gas removal using a dry or wet method. It complies with the most rigorous European regulations on sludge incineration. The flue gas sewage residuals (REFIB) are disposed of in landfill centers (approximately 1% of the incinerated sludge tonnage).
