Flottweg Brings Advanced Sludge Dewatering Technology to WEFTEC 2025
At WEFTEC 2025 in Chicago, Flottweg will showcase its breakthrough sludge dewatering solutions—including the powerful Xelletor series—at Booth #1217, offering wastewater professionals a firsthand look at the next generation of centrifuge technology.
Developed specifically for high-performance sludge treatment, the Flottweg Xelletor redefines centrifuge separation with its patented open scroll design. This innovation improves performance across the board: drier cake, greater throughput, and significantly lower consumption of both energy and polymer.
“With the Xelletor, facilities can expect up to 2% higher total dry solids, translating to around 10% less sludge volume and major savings in transportation and disposal,” said Flottweg’s John Yatcilla. “It also cuts polymer usage by up to 20% and delivers up to 20% energy savings—without compromising throughput.”
Flottweg’s X Series builds on decades of engineering expertise, incorporating advanced features such as the double cone scroll and Recuvane® energy recovery system. Designed for the realities of modern wastewater operations, Xelletor offers up to 15% more throughflow capacity, enabling operators to do more with less.
