Stop Hauling Water: The New Economics of Biosolids Dewatering The “Stop Hauling Water” webinar focuses on a simple but expensive problem in wastewater treatment: facilities often spend significant money transporting water that should have been removed during the dewatering process. The goal is to help operators and decision-makers look beyond equipment purchase price and understand the true cost of hauling, disposal, labor, polymer use, and inefficient dewatering. The webinar explains how sludge characteristics, polymer selection, capture efficiency, throughput, and cake solids all affect dewatering performance. Even a modest improvement in cake dryness can reduce the volume and weight of material being hauled, potentially creating meaningful savings over the life of the equipment. The emphasis is on achieving stable, repeatable performance rather than chasing one impressive test result.	10/22/2026n/j/Y	2:00pm CDT2026-10-22T19:00:00Zg:ia T	1 hour	Register
