With the continuous development of urbanization, the amount of sewage generated in industrial production and life to be treated is gradually increased, and the output of sludge, which is a byproduct after sewage treatment, is also increased. Sludge treatment is more difficult than sewage treatment. In order to treat the sludge, a sewage treatment plant generally reduces the water content of the sludge from more than 90% to 60-80% by a concentration or dehydration method, and then landfills, solidifies or dries the treated sludge. The landfill easily causes the sludge fermentation and the secondary pollution to the environment, and the existing solidification or drying equipment has low efficiency, large energy consumption, poor reduction effect and difficult implementation of subsequent treatment.

Most of the existing commonly-used sludge drying devices adopt a horizontal arrangement mode, namely, a shaft of the sludge drying device is arranged along the horizontal direction, so that the occupied area of the sludge drying device is large, and the equipment cost is high. Furthermore, horizontally arranged sludge drying plants generally require the provision of additional sludge transport devices, which also increases the complexity and cost of the plant.

But the material bonds on the tray easily in drying process, and the unable even cloth, the area of contact of hot-blast and material is little moreover, reduces material drying efficiency, and mud still has higher moisture content, is difficult to carry out further sludge handling.
