Aerobic sludge digestion can reduce solids by 30-60% using pure oxygen, to produce a safe, stable, low odour sludge which has a high nutrient value.

Halia® Oxygen sludge digestion offers a compact, effective alternative to conventional aeration.
• Increased oxygen delivery rates, leading to faster digestion and higher pathogen kill
• Only 3 to 5 days treatment; less than half the retention time of most air digestors.
• Operates at thermophilic temperatures (typically 45 to 65°C)
• Lower power consumption than aerators can offer
• Produces highly stable digested sludge which can typically be dewatered to 25-30% dry solids using conventional apparatus

The Halia® Oxygen sludge digestion can be either retro-fitted in open tanks and operated in a similar fashion to a conventional activated sludge basin, or included in the design of a new sludge treatment plant.
