- Need a temporary replacement due to equipment failure
- Reduce sludge disposal costs associated with vacuum truck hauling
- Existing equipment no longer provides sufficient treatment capacity
- Additional treatment capacity is required to support increased production
Unexpected equipment failure or rising sludge disposal costs?
Our rental service allows you to use a Sludge Dewatering Press only for the period you need, eliminating capital investment while enabling rapid installation and startup. It is also an effective option when equipment replacement is required but purchasing new equipment is not immediately practical.AMCON offers rentals from as short as one month. We conduct a Sludge Sample Test and review the installation site to propose the most suitable model for your needs.

Cost Benefits of Sludge Dewatering
Reduce Sludge Disposal Volume to Approximately 1/10–1/15 of Vacuum Truck Hauling
Most sludge transported by vacuum truck consists primarily of water. Performing Sludge Dewatering before transportation significantly reduces both the weight and volume of sludge, helping lower industrial waste disposal and transportation costs.Based on the example conditions shown below, assuming vacuum truck hauling costs of ¥10,000/m³ and sludge cake disposal costs of ¥20,000/t, the estimated annual cost reduction is approximately ¥5.9 million.
Cost estimates can also be prepared based on your actual operating conditions. Please contact us for an evaluation.

Case Studies
Temporary Sludge Treatment During Equipment Replacement
Urakawa Wastewater Treatment Center, Hokkaido, Japan
During equipment replacement and seismic reinforcement work, the existing sludge treatment system had to be taken out of service while sludge treatment needed to continue throughout the construction period. A rental VOLUTE™ Dewatering Press was therefore installed as a temporary dewatering solution.Its integrated thickening and dewatering design enabled direct treatment of Waste Activated Sludge without a gravity thickener, providing stable operation for approximately nine months.

Pilot Verification of Dewatering Performance
Ajinomoto Co., Inc. Tokai Plant
The existing dewatering equipment had reached its treatment capacity. A rental unit was first used to verify dewatering performance under actual operating conditions before full-scale installation. This helped significantly reduce the volume of industrial waste requiring disposal.
