Waste Water Filter Presses
When it comes to separating solids from fluids, a filter press is a preferred method among many. Utilizing a filter press is a very popular method for mud extraction. What is the role of the filter press in the water treatment process? What sizes are available? These questions and more are discussed here.
What Is a Filter Press?
A filter press is a piece of equipment used in liquid/solid separation. It works by pumping slurry into the press, which then uses pressure to separate the solids from the liquids. The solids form a filter cake on the cloth, and the filtrate passes through as clean water. This method is highly effective in producing clear filtrate and dry filter cake, making it an efficient solution for various industrial applications.
What is the Filter Press’s Role in Water Treatment?
Filter presses play a crucial role in the treatment of wastewater by efficiently removing the solids from the wastewater, allowing the water to be reused in the fabrication process or safely discharged. This not only helps in maintaining operational efficiency but also ensures environmental compliance.
