Rotary Drum Filters (RVDF)
Info
How It Works
A rotating drum is partially submerged in the slurry, where vacuum pressure draws liquid through the filter media.
A filter cake forms on the drum surface and is continuously discharged using a scraper, roll, or belt system.
Key Features
► Continuous Operation: Ensures high throughput with minimal downtime.
► Versatile Design Options: Available in drum cloth (caulked-on) or endless belt configurations.
► Custom Filtration Media: Specialty fabrics available for demanding applications.
Filter Media Options
► Polyester, Nylon, and Polypropylene: Selected based on chemical compatibility and process requirements.
► Advanced Fabric Treatments: Includes PTFE coatings for enhanced dust release and chemical resistance.
Typical Applications
► Titanium Dioxide Production
► Red Mud Filtration in Alumina Refining
► Pharmaceutical Processing
► Chemical Processing
► Food & Starch Filtration
► Pulp & Paper Slurry Separation
Vertical Disc Filters
Info
How It Works
Multiple stacked filter discs rotate through the slurry, where vacuum suction removes liquid and forms a cake on the disc surfaces.
The filter cake is discharged as the disc rotates, ensuring continuous processing.
Key Features
► Optimized for High-Solids Slurries: Handles dense suspensions with ease.
► Automated Cake Discharge: Reduces labor and maintenance costs.
► Customizable Media: Ensures longer lifespan and improved process efficiency.
Filter Media Options
► Polypropylene, Polyester, Nylon, and PTFE: Available in woven and nonwoven substrates.
► Expanded PTFE (Membrane-Laminated): For applications requiring enhanced chemical resistance and precision filtration.
Typical Applications
► Alumina Hydrate Filtration
► Iron Ore (Taconite) Processing
► Copper Concentrate Filtration
► Coal Clean & Refuse Separation
