treating communal sewage sludge that is economical in small case of small scale production too. Five years of research and development led to the successful completion of a for prototype machine that received regulatory approval and third-party testing/validation. The InnoPellet system offers an economical solution of sewage sludge and a treatment for wastewater companies. The technology is a self-supporting machinery for drying and pelleting sewage sludge without external need of fossil fuel or any supply other additional material. The technology will enable of raw wastewater plants to meet the strict EU environmental regulations and at the same time, reduce their sewage sludge treatment costs with 50-75%.
