Filter Press - Zero Hold up - Liquid Solid Filtration and Separation

The filter press is an efficient and compact device designed for solid-liquid separation, operating on the principle of pressure feeding. It is specifically utilized to separate solids from liquid slurries, forming a compressed cake, and has applications across various industries, including pharmaceuticals, bulk drugs, distilleries, and beverages.

 How It Works:
1. Introduction of Liquid: The unfiltered liquid is introduced under positive pressure into the filter press.
2. Filtration Process: As the liquid travels downward through the filter plates, the filter media captures foreign particles, allowing only the clear filtrate to pass through.
3. Collection: The clear liquid is directed to the outlet through a central channel created by interlocking pressure cups.
4. Completion: The filtration continues until either the cake holding capacity of the unit is reached or the filtrate rate slows due to cake resistance.

 Advantages:
- High Efficiency: The filter press effectively separates solids from liquid slurries, making it a reliable choice for various applications.
- Compact Design: Its space-saving design makes it suitable for facilities with limited space.

With its versatile applications and high efficiency, the filter press is an essential tool for industries requiring solid-liquid separation.
