Filter press sludge dewatering machine is a widely used equipment in industry, which can effectively separate solids from liquids. Filter press functionality is derived from high-pressure operation, which compacts the solid filter cake and minimizes moisture content. This core technology solves the solid-liquid separation problem in many industries and is an important part of industrial production.
The operation of the sludge dewatering filter press consists of several steps. First, the slurry (a mixture of solid and liquid) is delivered to the filter press under high pressure. Then, the corresponding filter media (such as filter cloth) will trap the solids in the slurry and allow the liquid to pass through. The separated liquid, also called filtrate, is discharged through a system of pipes. In this process, the high pressure not only effectively separates the solid, but also compreses the moisture of the filter cake and improves the drying degree of the filter cake.
