Matec Big Bag Plant

Big Bag Plant: Efficient Wastewater Treatment for Small and Medium Operations

A Big Bag Plant is an ideal solution for smaller stone processing shops and operations requiring cost-effective, compact wastewater and sludge treatment. Designed by Matec, these plants handle sludge flows of up to 400-500 l/min while maintaining the same quality standards and achieving the same clarification levels as larger industrial plants.

The modular design of Big Bag Plants allows for seamless integration of additional Matec equipment, such as filter presses, ensuring scalability to meet evolving operational needs.

How Big Bag Plants Work

Big Bag Plants are equipped with advanced systems designed for wastewater purification and sludge dewatering:

  • Filtering Bags: These specialized “Big Bags” (90 cm x 90 cm x 120 cm) are paired with embossed stainless steel silos to filter and manage sludge effectively.
  • Sludge Management: Sludge is collected in the bags without requiring a press, further dewatered for disposal, while cleaned water is ready for reuse.
  • Flexible Capacity: Systems with 1 to 5 Big Bags can process between 1,500 kg and 7,500 kg of sludge, with or without the addition of a flocculant plant.

Big Bag Plants are versatile and capable of adapting to lower-volume materials, offering a simpler and more compact wastewater treatment solution.
