Flottweg Wins German Innovation Award in Gold

Flottweg made waves with its Xelletor Industrial Centrifuge and was awarded the German Innovation Award in "Gold".

"The dewatering of sewage sludge is standard in the operation of sewage treatment plants. Since the sludge usually has to be transported away, the operators want to separate as much water as possible from the sludge in order to save weight and thus reduce costs. Sewage sludge disposal alone accounts for up to 80 percent of operating costs. With the innovative Flottweg Xelletor System, a specially designed high-performance centrifuge, additional sludge savings of up to 10 percent can be achieved and energy consumption reduced by up to 34 percent. This kind of increased performance in the mechanical separation process with significantly lower consumption has redefined the standards in the field of industrial centrifuges," stated the German Innovation Award jury.
