Wedge Wire Screen Cylinder for Disposal of Degraded Food Waste

Wedge wire screen cylinders installed in screw presses for food waste treatment are one of the most common application of wedge wire screens in the wastewater treatment industry.

Food waste typically refers to non-consumable and inedible substances generated from kitchens or restaurants. These wastes need to be disposed of properly to minimize their negative impact on the environment and can be recycled for resource recovery or energy production.

As a result, food waste is usually processed into compost, biogas production, or entered into other recycling processes. This helps to reduce the amount of waste going into landfills or incineration, thus minimizing the adverse environmental impact.

Wedge wire screen cylinder plays a role in the solid-liquid separation stage of food waste disposal The mechanical device equipped with a wedge wire screen cylinder is a screw press, where a conical screw rotates inside the filter made of wedge wires. As the machine operates, the food waste is pressed with increasing force against the metal filter, allowing the liquid portion to pass through the screen holes while retaining the solid waste on the surface of the screen cylinder. This efficient solid-liquid separation process helps convert organic waste into liquid organic fertilizer that can be used for farm irrigation or other recycling processes. Meanwhile, the separated solid waste can be used for composting, biogas production, or other resource recovery purposes.
