Dewatering

SKAPS NexaTube dewatering and containment units, are engineered for high tensile strength and advanced filtration performance. Designed for efficient sludge management, NexaTube provides a simple, innovative, and economical solution for containment and dewatering applications.

The SKAPS NexaTube dewatering technology enables the efficient dehydration of large sludge volumes through a straightforward and effective process. During dewatering, excess water drains through the engineered geotextile fabric while solids are retained within the tube. This system offers a practical and economical solution for sludge management, combining durability, performance, and operational efficiency.

NexaTube contains and confines a wide range of sediments and is used in various applications including:

  • Municipal & Industrial Sludge Dewatering:
    • Wastewater treatment plant sludge
    • Industrial process sludge
    • Agricultural waste
  • Dredging Projects:
    • Containing sediments from rivers, lakes and harbors
    • Common in marina and navigation channel maintenance
  • Mining Operations:
    • Tailing Containment
    • Fine Sediment management
  • Environmental Remediation:
    • Contaminated sediment containment

Key Advantages:

Easy installation and rapid start-up of operations.
High level of confinement with significant percentage of water content.
Volume reduction of both:

  • Optimize space by condensing or dewatering material.
  • Reduce transportation cost.
  • Water recovery is improved.
High-efficiency filtration with excellent solids removal and superior quality recovered effluent.
Highly densified solids content with less water content, simplifying disposal or final treatment.
Solid-liquid separation performance, enhanced by chemical conditioning.
Minimal environmental impact, with effective capture of both organic and inorganic pollutants.
Zero maintenance requirements — no mechanical components or spare parts needed, resulting in low energy consumption.
Flexible manufacturing dimensions, allowing fully customized solutions.
