container higher than the design height?
container design height is controlled by the tensile strength of the textile with a 4:1 factor of safety. Exceeding the design height could result in the textile rupturing. 4. Can I dewater municipal wastewater treatment biosolids without using polymer? Yes, but the capture of solids wont be as efficient and it will take much longer to get sufficiently dry cake solids. There is also a risk of masking off the pores of the textile. 5. Can Geotube containers dewater and contain secondary sludge? Yes, It will probably require a polymer to assist in flocculation. This will result in very clean filtrate and solids comparable to older mechanical dewatering technology. 6. Can Geotube containers dewater and contain primary sludge? Yes, most installations use a polymer to assist in dewatering allowing faster refilling and obtaining finished solids sooner. Solids levels are usually equal or higher than the traditional older mechanical methods. 7.
