FILTER PRESS

Sludge separation through plate and frame Filter Presses to minimize the quantity of water held in the solid, hence reducing disposal costs.

Filter Presses consist of a series of either vertically or horizontally designed chambers arranged in parallel produced by either stacking flush plates of belts with distance frames separating them, or stacking a series of recessed plates, each plate or belt carrying a filter cloth or other suitable filter medium.

Filter presses of this design have proved very successful for dewatering applications in such diverse industries as concentrate processing, industrial minerals, metallurgical processing, chemicals processing, food and pharmaceutical industries and in waste processing and effluent treatment.
