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 NexaTube system enables efficient consolidation of large sludge volumes through a straightforward and proven process, reducing reliance on traditional handling methods while improving overall project efficiency.
During operation, polymer-conditioned slurry is pumped into the tube, where enhanced flocculation improves dewatering efficiency. Effluent water drains through the engineered geotextile fabric while solids are securely retained within the tube. Designed to handle high flow rates and promote rapid water release, NexaTube systems reduce material volume, lower disposal costs, and improve overall operational performance.
NexaTube contains and confines a wide range of sediments and is used in various applications including:
- Municipal & Industrial Sludge Dewatering:
- Sludge dewatering (primary & secondary)
- Lagoon and pond cleanouts
- Biosolids management
