Dewatering Filter Tubes

1. Filling: Sludge or silt is pumped into the dewatering tube. Solids bind together, allowing the water or liquid to separate out.

2. Dewatering: Clear effluent water drains from tube, leaving 99% of solids in the tube. Clear filtered water can then be recirculated in the system.

3. Consolidation: Solids remain in the bag. When tube is full, contents are deposited in landfill or removed and applied to land when appropriate.

Choosing the Right Dewatering Product

Not sure which dewatering product is right for you? Choosing the best dewatering solution helps ensures success for your project. Geotextile dewatering tubes are heavy duty dewatering products designed to handle big projects, filtering sludge and sediment. If you have a smaller dewatering job, dewatering bags may be a better choice to filter sediment and silt. Dewatering bags are smaller, usually between 6' x 6' and 15' x 20'.

To determine the right dewatering solution for you, consider the following questions to choose between geotextile tubes and dewatering bags.

• What types of solids are you filtering?
• How many dewatering products will you need for the volume of solids you are filtering?
• Where will you place the dewatering tubes or bags? How much space is required?
• Where will the filtered water flow?
