SOLID / LIQUID SEPERATION

Economic and efficient solutions for all filtration problems from 5 liters to 18 m3 cake capacities



Description

Filterpresses met the industry in early 1900's and started to be used extensively in sludge dewatering (decomposition of solid and liquid). Previously used only labor intensive, this equipment, changed its image as of 1960's and took its place in industry by various automotions. They have become the indispensable equipments of the plants having been donated by washing, drying, automatic discharge mechanisms in order to make out a cake as dry as possible.

Filterpresses are made up of two fixed heads an done moving head compressing the plates. One of the fixed heads carries the hydraulic group compressing the plates, the other one carries the sludge etrance system. The plates are carried by the help of side beams between the twp fixed heads or the overhead beams. Each filtration plate is dressed by filter cloth on both sides. Filtration chambers with different plate numbers have been formed when the pres worked and plates are collocated.

The most widespread type of plate use is the one that is centrally supplied. This supply goes on all along the plates and thus homogeneous fill of all the chambers is provided. Discharge bips located at the very bottom of the plates, is one of the most widespread "Open Discharge" application making the filtrate bip pot to the required location. Besides, close discharge system is widely used in toxic, flammable and evaporating filtrates.

Working Principle

Two types pf plates are used in filterpresses; one with a membrane an done without a membrane. In both plate types, the filtration principle is as seen in the below scheme.




Filterpresses Without Membrane Plates

· Sludge is pumped to the chambers from sludge etrance by the help of a pump. Formation of a cake which gradually gets thicker starts in the chambers. The cake, getting drier as the pressure increases, gets the intended formation.

· In order to increase cake's dryness, air is blown from the center. Sludge at the supply is discharged with this air to obtain a completely dry cake.

· Press is opened.

· Plates are opened particularly and the cakes are emptied.

· The filterpresses are ready to a new cycle.



Membrane Plated Filterpresses

· Sludge is pumped to the chambers from the sludge entrance by the help of a pump. Formation of a cake which gradually gets thicker starts in the cells.

· In the meantime, special membranes in the form of an empty chamber stick to the plate completely.

· Pre pressing is realised by applyling presure to the membranes when the chamber pressure reaches up to 6-7 var.

· In order to obstruct cake hold, cake is washed with water in this position.

· Air blowing is applied to reduce cake moisture.

· More water or air is pumped to the backside of the membrans for final squeezing up tp 15 bars to further reduce moisture.

· In order to get rid of the wet liquid in the sludge, central blowing processing is done. Thus the cake to be emptied is completely dried.

· Press is opened.

· Paltes are opened particularly and tha cakes are emptied.

· The filterpresses are ready to a new cycle.



OUR MODELS

HH - Hand Hydraulic
This type of press operates by a manuel hand pump. Following the closure of the cylinder the nut is engaged to maintain a constant pressure.



SEH - Semi Electrically Hydraulic

In this model a semi hydraulic lever is used to close the press. Following the closure of the cylinder the nut is engaged to maintain a constant pressure.



EH - Electrically Hydraulic
The closure and opening process is carried out by the hydraulic power unit. This process can also be carried out automatically by use of the on off switch on the control panel or by use of PLC function.







PRESSURE
Standart design as 8 and 16 bar and complete turn key process solutions.

SIZES
From 250x250 mm to 2000x2000 mm different and PVDF.

PLATE MATERIALS
Pressure proof plastic materials such as PP, PU and PVDF.

FİLTRE BEZLERİ
Made of all synthetic and natural fibers which is suitable for process.

TYPES

PLATE + FRAME PRESSES
It is an old model which is used for the fine filtration of suspended solids at low solid content.

CHAMBER FILTER PRESSES
They are used fort he filtration of suspended solids at high solids content.

TYPES

FILTER PRESS ADVANTAGES

Several process steps such as Filtration, Cake Washing and Drying by gas or air



OUR ACCESSORIES


OPT - Automatic Plate Transport
following the openning of the press, plate transportation process is carried out by the plate shifting device. This design is properatory to AES and facilitates an efficent reliable operation.






OPS - Automatic Plate Shaking

Plate opening is carried out by a chain system just like a accordion. After opening; all plates have an equal distance from each others. Than punematic cylinders rise upall plates which is height is adjustable and leave them on to the rectangular arm. During this shaking process, all the cakes among the plates drop down. Quantity an period of shaking can be set easily from small logic control system.



DT - Drip Tray
Some processes have very low solid concentration therefore can come some drips from the closed plates. In order to protect and collect these drips, drip tray can be put onto to press. This tray also helps to cake to drop down exactly lower of the press.

SLC - Safety Light Curtain
During the clousure or opening the press, if somebody approches to moving parts of pres, it stopped by the safety light curtain. It is easily can be installed to our machine.

SP - Space Part
If you want to increase your capacity future, we can design a space part for you. When you want to put new plates you will dismantle this space part and put your plates onto the press.


PLC - Control Press by PLC
We can provide you all kind of automation by PLC.


WD - Cloth Washing Device
Dirty clothes can be washed up to 100 bars by a special washing device which can be installed easily to our press. In order to avoid environment and people from pulverized water jet or some cake splash we can install transparent PVC splash curtains to our press.



C - Cake Conveyor
There are too many alternatives to carry cakes from the press. The most popular of these equipment are;


· Cake Trolley

· Belt conveyor

· Swan neck conveyor

· Scraper conveyor

· Devirmeli Konteyner

· Crew conveyor
