Decanting silos

Decanting silos for sludge sedimentation are systems designed for solid-liquid separation through gravitational sedimentation processes, used in wash water treatment plants, industrial water recycling systems, and sludge management from production processes or construction activities.

Operation is based on controlled reduction of flow velocity within the structure, promoting the deposition of solid particles at the bottom and separation of clarified liquid in the upper section. This process reduces suspended solids content in discharged water and optimizes subsequent treatment, reuse, or disposal phases.

SAMI decanting silos are sized according to flow rate and solids concentration, ensuring adequate storage volume, structural stability, and operational continuity. Integration with sedimented sludge extraction systems and clarified water management enables efficient control of the entire treatment cycle, contributing to cost reduction and compliance with environmental regulations.
