Sludge incineration solution

Efficiently utilising energy and resources from sludge: KSB solutions for thermal sludge utilisation

The transportation of sludge poses exceptional challenges for pumps, especially when it comes to ensuring safe and economical operation. Benefit from our extensive expertise and proven pumps and valves for this specific application.

Reliable processes thanks to KSB's sludge incineration solution for thermal utilisation at sludge incineration plants

Since the amended Sludge Ordinance in 2017, thermal utilisation has increasingly become the main disposal route for sludge from municipal waste water treatment plants. The advantage is that the heat generated during sludge incineration can be used for district heating and electricity generation.

However, transporting sludge through pipelines places high demands on pumps and valves. Choosing the wrong components can jeopardise process reliability and the overall efficiency of the plant. 
As one of the leading manufacturers of pumps and valves for this application, KSB offers a sludge incineration solution that ensures operators can maintain trouble-free and cost-effective operations. Our technically advanced pumps play a crucial role, capable of safely managing aggressive, abrasive, highly viscous and solids-laden liquids in sludge incineration plants.

Engineering contractors and operators can rely on KSB's comprehensive product range for all primary and secondary processes, either tailored to meet specific needs or selected from our standard range. KSB is committed to ensuring prompt delivery from our global locations, supporting the seamless operation of sludge incineration facilities.

Good can still become better: Retrofit

New framework conditions often require adjustments. For example, to increase energy efficiency, fulfil changed legal requirements, extend service life or adapt technology to changed pumping data - it does not always have to be a new pump.

Discover the wide range of retrofit solutions from KSB that will make your pumps fit again. 
We optimize existing pumps and valves with hydraulic, mechanical or material upgrades - regardless of the manufacturer. With a retrofit from KSB, you can ensure the safe and sustainable operation of your systems.
