SAMCO Filter Presses (FPS) utilizing recessed chamber plates
are one of the most efficient ways to dewater and compact liquid
slurry (sludge) into disposable cakes. Depending on the nature
of the slurry, filter presses are typically capable of
dewatering sludge up to 30%-60% solids. The Filter Press
produces clear filtrates while the separated solids are removed
from the press as a solid cake.
Recessed chamber plates, concave on both sides, are covered
with a cloth filtration media and are held together under
pressure by a press frame and hydraulic system to create
discreet filtration and solid holding chambers within the Press.
Liquid slurry is pumped into the press and fills these
chambers. The liquid and solids separate (dewater) via the
pressure from the feed pump. Filtered liquid passes through the
filter cloth media and continues out of the press while the
solids are collected and concentrated in the recessed chambers.
In many applications, the Filter Press is the best and most
efficient technology available for liquid / solid separation. |
