How Dewatering Tubes Work
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.
Applications for Dewatering Tubes
- Sludge Removal
- Agricultural Compost
- Dams and Harbors
- Sludge Filtration
- Environmental Dredging
- Pond Remediation
- Coastal Protection
- Breakwater for Hotels and Beach Side Homes
- Dewatering in Wastewater Plants, Coal Plants, and More
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 or download and fill out our short dewatering questionnaire and tell us more about your project. This will help us tailor our services to your specific needs and offer you the best options.
- 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?
Our durable sludge dewatering tubes are fabricated from specially engineered geotextiles, providing superior containment of fine solids and more clean water flow rate. These prefabricated tubes are engineered with high-strength, quality-seaming techniques to give you an efficient and environmentally friendly solution for your dewatering applications. Geotextile dewatering tubes can also be mounted in mobile roll-off containers if you need to transport them around your property. Our dewatering tubes come in 22' to 200' lengths with circumferences up to 120'. If you have a job that requires a different size geotextile tube, talk with one of our specialist to customize for your dewatering needs.
