VSGM

VSGM offers a feasible, circular solution for processing (contaminated) sludge from water treatment plants, industrial processes and similar waste streams.

Using its patented MID MIX technology, these materials are processed into a useful end product called 'Neutral'.

Processing costs per ton of sludge are generally competitive with gate-fees of sludge incineration plants.

A big advantage is that the waste processing tax of € 41 does not apply to our technology.

Neutral has multiple applications; for example, it can be used in flue gas purification or as an active filler in cement and asphalt.

Through a post-processing process, it can also be used as a mineral CCU material, by permanently capturing CO2 in the form of calcium carbonate.

If the input to the MID MIX process contains ammonia (such as WWTP sludge), it is recovered as ammonium sulfate, a useful raw material for the fertilizer industry.

Phosphate recovery is also possible through post-processing of Neutral.

During the MID MIX process, heavy metals are permanently encapsulated and thus rendered harmless (they no longer leach out).

In addition, other contaminants, such as mineral oil, PAHs, PCBs, and PFAS/PFOS, are also largely degraded, with concentrations of these contaminants in the final product 5-10 times lower than in the incoming sludge.

VSGM has successfully processed a wide variety of sludges in recent years and will be building a full-scale commercial facility in 2026.

We are building this facility for a client already active in recycling and waste processing.

This client will focus on processing industrial sludge from third parties.

The MID MIX process can process virtually any type of sludge and also offers a solution for other waste streams.

Are you looking for a better solution for your sludge or are you interested in processing it (or having it processed)?
