The BioEarth Gen Rapid Dewatering System The unique, patented Rapid Dewatering System (RDS) is the only sediment dewatering method in the world today that can process hydraulically dredged sediment at a rate that matches the dredge output. While many processes can quickly dewater sand and gravel from a dredged slurry, only the BioEarth Gen system is designed to rapidly dewater fine grained sediments instantly and on-site. The three step process begins when the hydraulically dredged material is pumped directly into the BioEarth Gen system:
• First, the system removes and sorts large material, such as shells and debris, and sand. • Specially matched polymers are then mixed with the fine-grained sediment slurry to flocculate the sediments. • The water is removed from the flocculated sediments on the BioEarth Gen Rapid Dewatering System (RDS).
Depending on the desired water content, the sediment can be further dewatered on site in small, uniquely designed cells by capillary action and suction Paradigm Shift to High Speed Dewatering Saves Time and Money
Unique to BioEarth Gen, the RDS can keep pace with the dredge flow on a one-to-one basis. The process can result in a significant cost savings when compared to other material or land intensive dewatering methods. The advanced technology of the BioEarth Gen system produces dewatered sediment in easily reusable forms. Sand and dirt, which are sorted in separate piles, can be used on-site or trucked away for reuse elsewhere. With its Small Footprint, BioEarth Gen is Mobile and Easy to Transport Ideal for urban settings, the entire BioEarth Gen system fits on a site of 150 ft x 150 ft or less and is truckable. With BioEarth Gen, areas that could not be effectively dredged in the past, due to lack of land for a dewatering facility, can now be effectively and affordably dredged. Looking After the Environment  BioEarth Gen saves ecosystems from deforestation and destruction by eliminating the need for large tracts of land for dewatering. The environment has the added benefit of clear water returning instantly to the waterway at the end of the process. Return water has turbidity levels of less than 30 ppm of total suspended solids. About BioEarth Gen Founded by an elite team of chemists and engineers, BioEarth Gen grew from a U.S. based operation to the international leader in rapid dewatering technology. The company has become integral to waterway restoration projects in a wide range of public and private sectors worldwide, including regional watersheds, recreational waterways, and industrial applications. |
