Independent Technical Advisory
Feasibility, bag specification, flocculant guidance, dewatering bed layout, site setup support, installation supervision, QA and performance review.
The process
From slurry to stackable cake
Geotextile dewatering tubes separate solids from water at scale — with no mechanical complexity. Slurry in, clarified water out, handleable cake ready for disposal or reuse.
01 · FILL
Slurry is pumped in
Feedstock is pumped through inlet ports, commonly with a flocculant dosed inline to bind fine particles and accelerate separation.
02 · DEWATER
Water drains out
Water permeates through the permeable geotextile fabric. Fill-and-drain cycles are repeated to build volume and maximise dryness.
03 · CONSOLIDATE
Cake forms and dries
Retained solids consolidate into a handleable cake for disposal or reuse. Clarified filtrate can often be recovered and recycled on site.

"We've never seen geobag dewatering so successful. The Kontain geobags outperformed anything we'd used previously on organic sludge."

"Ben came on-site during scoping, worked through flocculant adjustments for the dredge spoil, and the bag specification handled the effluent quality we needed. Site prep guidance was practical and we were never left to figure it out alone."
