ELODE is a secondary dewatering system. It achieves its highest efficiency when the cake's moisture content from the primary mechanical dewatering equipment (Belt Press, Centrifuge, Filter Press, Screw Press, Vacuum Press, etc.) is below 85% WT. Unlike conventional mechanical dewatering methods, ELODE employs electro-osmosis, infiltration, and electrophoresis to achieve high-efficiency dewatering. The process involves feeding the primary dewatered cake between an anode drum and a cathode caterpillar. By applying three-phase alternating voltage between the electrodes, the system disrupts bound water, interstitial water, and intracellular water within the cells of various sewage sludges within three minutes, resulting in high-efficiency dewatering to achieve 40-60% WT.
ELODE dewaters sludge using electrochemical principles through the application of AC power converted to DC between anodes and cathodes. Depending on the sludge’s organic content, conductivity, and characteristics, the cake temperature ranges from 40°C to 80°C. While the dewatered cake may feel hot, it is not hazardous to humans.
ELODE does not utilize mechanical pressure for dewatering. If sludge is introduced without applying electrical power, no dewatering occurs, and the sludge is discharged unchanged
Since ELODE dewaters sludge by breaking cell membranes, significant vapor may be released during the process. Depending on the sludge’s characteristics, odors may occur. In such cases, a scrubber system (optional specification) can capture and remove the vapors. However, compared to conventional thermal dryers, odor generation is minimal.
ELODE employs an innovative dewatering method. For public sewage sludge with an input moisture content of 15% WT, it guarantees a moisture content of below 60% WT. In cases where the sludge has good conductivity or high organic content, a moisture content of below 50% WT is achievable.
The electrical requirements for ELODE vary by model and processing capacity. Typically, it operates at DC 50–80V with a current range of 300–2000A. Detailed power consumption specifications and sludge cake processing capacities for each ELODE model are as follows:
ELODE cannot process completely inorganic sludge, non-conductive sludge, or metal sludge. The system operates most effectively when the conductivity ranges between 3000–9000 µS. Conductivities below 2000 µS or above 12,000 µS can result in operational difficulties and may damage the equipment. Caution is advised in such cases
Yes, even if the dewatering efficiency is low, a single ELODE unit (Model EODS) can be installed at the rear end of any dewatering equipment. Before installation, it is essential to test the system with an ELODE demo unit to evaluate drying efficiency and power consumption.

ELODE is designed for 24-hour unmanned automated operation. However, regular maintenance and preventive measures are critical. Following the ELODE maintenance checklist for daily, weekly, monthly, and annual inspections ensures long-term reliability.
The typical lifespan of ELODE is 30 years. Regular cleaning and proper management, as per the guidelines, will maximize the equipment's operational longevity.
The drum, a core component of ELODE, is equipped with a cooling system, making it suitable for operation in tropical regions. However, in extremely cold regions, precautions must be taken to prevent freezing.
ELODE is designed to prevent electrical explosions. If organic fumes generated from the sludge accumulate, they are quickly expelled through the exhaust line. In case of abnormal exhaust conditions, the system automatically halts operations.
ELODE includes a triple safety mechanism, featuring complete insulation, protective covers, and operator safeguards. It is certified by both UL and CE standards.
The Caterpillar is not a consumable and does not require replacement; it is semi-permanent, provided it is kept clean. However, if the Drum sustains damage, the dewatering efficiency may decrease. In such cases, the affected Drum Plate should be replaced
