FILTER PRESS | Chemical Engineering World

Filter Press A filter press is a crucial piece of equipment used in various industries for separating solids from liquids. This mechanical device operates through the application of high pressure to achieve filtration, making it a preferred choice for efficient and cost-effective liquid-solid separation. The filter press consists of a series of plates covered with filter cloths, forming chambers where the slurry (a mixture of solids and liquids) is pumped. The process begins by pumping the slurr
