LCI offers customized solutions and process expertise to solve your most difficult manufacturing process problems. LCI Corporation is also widely recognized as the leader in thin film evaporation technologies used in the manufacture of chemicals, specialty polymers, food products, and pharmaceuticals. LCI provides a broad range of thin film solutions including thin film, wiped film, and short path evaporators; thin film dryers; high viscosity processors; and modular systems. LCI Corporation offers specialized thin film sludge dryers that are based on the same design principle of thin film evaporators. Our thermal sludge drying equipment is designed to simply & safely dry dewatered sludge in a sustainable & configurable process. Capable of handling the toughest of drying applications, our thin film sludge dryers can produce dried solids output from 30% to 90%+, depending on your needs. Thin Film Sludge Dryers are thermal drying systems designed for sludge treatment at municipal wastewater or industrial wastewater treatment plants. Their purpose is to reduce sludge volume by decreasing the liquid content & increasing the solid content of sludge reducing the volume & weight of sludge while significantly decreasing disposal costs. Our dryers guarantee low energy use to mitigate climate change with optional heat recovery minimizing your carbon footprint. Simple & safe as the dryers require no back-mixing or extruder systems for feeding, as the sludge is directly pumped into the dryer small exhaust vapor streams lower electrical use & emissions control requirements. LCI thin film sludge dryer is designed to accept any feed sludge, including: - Sticky, pasty & liquid - Poorly screened - Poorly dewatered - Undigested primary/secondary, with high organic content - Digested - Biomass & high strength waste - Industrial - Municipal Common Processes Supported by LCI thin film sludge dryers include: - Agricultural (Beneficial Reuse) - Incineration - Gasification - Pyrolysis - Landfill Disposal - Class A Biosolids LCI thin film sludge dryers are constructed to fit a compact building footprint, fit existing buildings with small overall footprint, can be designed with secondary drying & are available with multiple condenser options. LCI Corporation is a leader in thermal processing equipment and engineered solutions, specializing in sludge drying technologies. Headquartered in Charlotte, North Carolina, LCI brings decades of process expertise to wastewater, biosolids, and industrial sludge applications, delivering systems that are efficient, safe, and tailored to the needs of municipalities and industries. As part of the Nederman Group, LCI has proven process equipment solutions and support. LCI’s Thin Film Sludge Dryer is a thermal drying system engineered to handle the most challenging sludge characteristics. The dryer uses an indirect, thin film drying principle that creates an efficient heat transfer layer, enabling high thermal efficiency while minimizing electrical consumption. This design allows LCI systems to safely and reliably process a wide range of sludge types, including digested and undigested sludges, primary and secondary sludge, industrial sludges, poorly dewatered materials, and sticky or high organic-content biosolids. LCI’s sludge drying systems are designed with flexibility and sustainability in mind. Configurable layouts allow systems to fit compact footprints, retrofit into existing buildings, or accommodate low headroom constraints. Optional heat recovery enables beneficial reuse of waste heat for applications such as digester heating or pre drying, reducing overall energy demand and supporting sustainability goals. Depending on the application, LCI dryers can produce partially or fully dried biosolids ranging from approximately 30% to 95% dry solids, with dense, low dust characteristics that support downstream handling, storage, and reuse options.
