What is the problem with severe sludge loss in inclined tube sedimentation tanks?
Severe sludge loss in inclined tube sedimentation tanks may be caused by high influent turbidity or excessive flow rates, which result in incomplete settlement of solid particles within the tank; at the same time, the insufficient drying of the sediment makes it easy for slurry-like substances to form. Additionally, blockages in the equipment or pipes inside the inclined tube sedimentation tank can also lead to severe sludge leakage. Solving this problem can be achieved by increasing the area of the sedimentation tank, reducing the inflow rate of water, and increasing the degree of drying of the materials within the tank. .
