3 SLUDGE DEWATERING BY IMPULSE DRYING Michael Zawadzld, Talat Mahmood, Sujit Banerjee Institute of Paper Science and Technology th Street, NW Atlanta, GA ABSTRACT An innovative and energy efficient sludge dewatering technology has been developed. The technology, impulse drying, involves briefly contacting the sludge under pressure with a heated surface. A unique feature of impulse drying is that the majority of moisture removal occurs as liquid water. A pilot- and laboratory-scale demonstration was performed on low ash primary paper mill sludge. The pilot-scale impulse dryer was able to increase the sludge solids level 23.2% greater than bek pressing alone. The pilot scale equipment was not optimized, and further gains are expected. Laboratory-scale demonstrations suggest that impulse drying is effective on a wide variety of sludge types' primary (high and low ash), secondary, and mixed sludges. Impulse drying efficiency depends upon the presence of sufficient moisture in the sludge. Preliminary results indicate that the process is effective for sludges with initial solids content in the range of 15 to 50%. Since, a sludge solids content of 30% is typical of the performance of an inexpensive bek press, these experiments demonstrate the potential of retrofitting existing bek presses with an add-on impulse dryer. A high percentage of fiquid water removal is achieved by the impulse drying process, which gives the technology an economic advantage relative to thermal dlying. The liquid water removal has major cost reduction potential for either sludge burning or landfilling. INTRODUCTION Since the 1980s, impulse drying has been under extensive development in the field of paper drying (Lavery 1987). Essentially, the impulse drying process involves pressing in a nip between heated and unheated rolls. Paper impulse drying involves pressing a moist paper sheet with a fek against a heated roll (200 to 350 C). Nip dwells of less than one second are generally used. Impulse drying induces an intense dewatering process that gives a higher dryness level than (wet) pressing, and it is more energy efficient than thermal drying. Unfo mm at ely, for paper impulse drying, the useful range of operating conditions is limited by sheet delamination and product qual/ty concerns (Crouse, Woo, and Sprague 1989; Orloff 1992). Sludge dewatering is an ideal application for the impulse drying technology because sludge delamination is not a concern. This paper describes recent work being done at the Institute of Paper Science and Technology (IPST) on the application of impulse drying to the field of sludge dewatering. The water removal mechanism of impulse drying is different from that involved in either thermal drying or pressing. A combination of related phenomena likely contributes to dewatering.
4 Initially, impulse drying involves a compression and heating period during which the unsaturated material is mechanically compressed. In wet pressing, the water removal is limited by the compressibility of the web. The higher temperatures used in impulse drying may increase material compressibility and allow more water to be pressed out. Also, at high temperature, the viscosity of water is reduced and, therefore, more easily pressed _om the small pores of the sludge matrix. The intense heat transfer may result in the generation of a vapor zone near the heated surface. One of the unique mechanisms of impulse dewatering is thought to be the creation of a vapor phase within the sheet that displaces sheet moisture as liquid water (Lavery 1988). EXPERIMENTAL Bek pressed sludge was acquired fxom Hollingsworth and Vose's (H&V) HawkesviUe, Georgia, paper mill. The H&V sludge was determined to have an initial solids content of 33 _+1% and an inorganic ash content of 4.2 _+0.1% (ashing at 525 C). The sludge is broadly characterized as a primal3, sludge composed of fiber, filler, and inorganic components. At the paper mill, sludge was sampled as it emerged _om the bek press. The sludge samples were taken as intact sheets and stored on melamine coated 1 foot by 4 foot boards. Immediately after sampling the sludge was sealed with PVC plastic to avoid moisture loss. The sludge samples were stored separately to avoid compression during transport and storage. The pilot scale experiments were performed on the IPST pilot-scale paper impulse dryer (Figure 1). The purpose of these experiments was to access scale up fxom the one-dimensional laboratory study to the two-dimensional pilot impulse dryer. The pilot equipment used an inductively heated top roll, grooved lower roll, and a metal wir e. The wire nm was 26 feet and had a width of 18 inches. The stainless steel wire was supplied by National Filtration (510 cfm airflow, 70 gal/min water flow rate). Both upper and lower rolls were 24 inches in diameter with a 24-inch width. Peak nip pressure was verified using a TekScan 5501 pinch roll sensor. The pinch roll sensor was calibrated over a range of known pressures using the laboratory-scale electrohydraulic press. Static nip measurements were made on the pilot impulse dryer to provide a measure of peak pressure, nip width, and pressure uniformity. Comparison experiments using the same batch of sludge were performed in the laboratory on an electrohydraulic Material and Testing Systems (MTS) press. The MTS press system used flat stainless steel platens. The MTS press system was configured to simulate both the thermal and mechanical pressure profiles of the pilot-scale equipment. A haversine pressure profile was used during the study. RESULTS and DISCUSSION H&V sludge was impulse dewatered in a laboratory study, and results are presented in Figure 2. This figure reveals that increasing peak nip pressure and upper platen temperature both give greater dewatering. The lower line in Figure 2 represents dewatering at room temperature. For the laboratory case, room temperature pressing gives little additional dewatering of previously bek-pressed sludge.

Impulse drying at 200 C (Figure 2, data not shown) gave 5.8% greater fmal sludge solids than room temperature pressing (dwell = 1 sec, P_700 psi). By using mass balances, the amount of liquid water removal from the sludge was calculated. For the 200 C case 82+6 % of the moisture was removed as liquid water. This estimate of liquid water removal is expected to
6 underestimate the actual amount of liquid water removal because some liquid water is lost on the platen surfaces. At 350 C, 6.7% greater solids were achieved relative to room temperature pressing (dwell = 1 sec, P_700 psi), and % of the moismxe was removed as liquid water. The upper line in Figure 2 represents dewatering with a two-second nip dwell. In this case, the final sludge solids content achieved was 60% (P=780 psi) with % liquid water removal. The results of the pilot-scale investigation are shown in Figure 3. The general trend of water removal is similar to that of the laboratory case. The nip dwell for the pilot-scale data presented in Figure 3 was one second. For the pilot-scale equipment, a one-second dwell corresponds to a linear wire speed of 10 feet per minute. At a peak nip pressure of 707 psi room temperature pressing was able to achieve a 44.3% final solids content. By increasing the upper roll temperature to 200 C a final solids content of 51.7% can be achieved. The greatest percentage solids, 56.2%, are achieved by using a roll pressure of 820 psi. Clearly, the pilot study has demonstrated that the solids content of 33% bek pressed sludge can be increased 23.2% by the impulse drying technology O 47 - r 26 C !

Figure 4 illustrates the influence of sludge initial solids on final solids after either pressing (25 C) or impulse drying (350 C). The results were acquired in a laboratory study with a nip pressure of psi and a nip dwell of one second. Data in the white region of the figure represent dewatering conditions under which final sludge solids are greater than the initial values. Pressing alone achieves little additional dewatering over the range of initial solids studied. Impulse drying was more effective than pressing alone. Impulse drying is effective over a wide range of initial solids contents with efficiency being lost only at high dryness levels. Liquid water removal for the impulse drying case was found to be appro 'mmately80% (Figure 4).

Impulse drying offers the advantage of increasing the solids content from previously bekpressed sludge. Both the laboratory and pilot studies display similar dewatering trends, but greater dewatering is observed in the pilot configuration. With increasing roll temperatures, similar increases in sludge solids were observed for both MTS and pilot studies. The laboratory study appears to simulate the results of the pilot study if the influence of pressing alone is considered. From the pilot trial, a fi_her advantage of the impulse drying technique was noted. Attempting to dewater previously bek-pressed sludge at temperatures below 150 C resulted in sticking of the sludge to the wire and blinding the wire. It was found that under impulse dewatefing conditions (>200 C) sticking of the sludge to the roll or wire did not occur. It is hypothesized that steam generated by the impulse drying process prevents sludge from sticking to the wire. Similarly, sticking has been observed in the laboratory experiments. Therefore, there is likely a practical limit to the level of pressure alone that can be used to increase the sludge solids content. Impulse drying can be used to extend the range of practical pressures and increase sludge solids. From the laboratory impulse drying study (200 C, dwell = 1 sec), % of the sludge moisture was removed as liquid water. Increasing the roll temperature to 350 C resulted in liquid water removal of %. Therefore, high liquid water removal is observed over a range of practical roll temperatures. The high liquid water removal suggests that the impulse drying process can have an economic advantage relative to sludge thermal drying. Impulse drying is energetically favorable because liquid water removal does not involve energy introduction to overcome the enthalpy of vaporization of water. The liquid water removal has major cost reduction potential for either sludge burning or landfilling.
8 Impulse drying efficiency depends upon the presence of sufficient moisture in the sludge. Preliminary results suggest that the process is effective for sludges with an initial solids content between 15 and 50% (Figure 4). A sludge solids content of 30% is typical of the performance of an inexpensive bek press. Hence, these experiments demonstrate the potential of retrofitting existing belt presses with an add-on impulse dryer. Experimental results suggest that the technology is useful for a wide range of sludge types: primary (high and low ash), secondary, and mixed (Banerjee et al., 1997; Banerjee, Phelan, and Foulkes, 1996). Impulse drying has been successfifily applied to municipal waste activated sludge (City of Houston, TX). The bek-pressed sludge was supplied at 16% solids, and impulse drying (350 C, dwell = 0.7 sec) gave an approximately 10% increase in the solids content. Mixed primary paper mill and secondary sludge (-_50'50) benefited from impulse drying. A nip dwell of 0.5 seconds and a roll temperature of 200 C were able to give a 15% increase in the solids level. Finally, high ash primary papermill sludge was investigated. Preliminary p_ot and laboratory resuks reveal that the dewatering behavior is similar to H&V sludge, and again, the pilot-scale configuration is more effective than the laboratory.
