Belt Filter Press

A Belt Filter Press is a sludge dewatering device that applies mechanical pressure to a chemically conditioned slurry, which is sandwiched between two (2) tensioned belts, by passing those belts through a serpentine of decreasing diameter rolls.Belt filter presses are used to remove water from liquid wastewater residuals and produce a non-liquid material referred to as “cake.” Dewatering wastewater solids reduces the volume of residuals, improves operation, and reduces costs for subsequent storage, processing, transfer, end use, or disposal among otherA belt filter press (BFP) provides sludge dewatering by pressing the sludge to force the water through a permeable medium. The process produces a cake (the dewatered product) having a dry solids (DS) content of 30% or more in the case of primary sludgeA filter press is one of the oldest and most trusted pieces of dewatering equipment. It's used for wastewater treatment across a variety of industries and applications. A filter press works by separating out solids from liquids, removing impurities, and suspended solids from industrial wastewater.
