What would/should be the sludge consistency present in a thickened sludge from a fertilizer industry effluent?

The plant capacity is 75 KLD and the sludge flow rate is 1.5KLD with a COD of 10000 in the inlet effluent

Much appreciated.

The process thought is activated sludge process. Therefore for 6day sludge age the value of F/M will be around 0.2. Secondary sludge generation will be between 0.7 to 0.75 kg/kg of BOD applied. Please contact me on rvsveipl@gmail.com for further discussion.

Is your system an activated sludge system?  If so it will depend entirely on the type of press or centrifuge you are using.  You should be able to achieve a 20-25% solids from the pressed solids.
