Onsite Dewatering & Pressing

Surface impoundments and storage tanks containing built up sludge can limit the effectiveness of your wastewater treatment system. Clean Harbors Industrial Services can safely remove the sludge and reduce the volume of waste through the use of specialized dredging and dewatering equipment resulting in improved efficiency of your wastewater treatment system and significant cost savings for you.

Treatability Lab

Clean Harbors' treatability lab processes representative samples of tank and surface impoundment waste and performs bench scale treatability studies to determine the most cost- effective chemistry and dewatering technology to manage your waste. Our lab provides key waste characteristics that are integral to the preparation of a comprehensive proposal and successful job execution.

Wide Variety of Dredging and Dewatering Equipment

Selecting the correct dredging and dewatering equipment is paramount to a successful project. Floating dredges utilize cable and winch conveyance systems to systematically move across surface impoundments for precise waste removal operations. With dredging capabilities up to 15 feet, waste can be pumped far distances to the dewatering system location.

Our equipment inventory also contains high and low pressure recessed chamber presses, including membrane presses. Our belt press inventory is comprised of various belt sizes and manufacturers and includes skid mounted and mobile units.
