Membrane Filter Presses

Dry Filter Cakes and Short Cycle Times

 

A membrane filter press extends conventional chamber filter technology by adding an additional membrane pressing stage. After primary filtration, the filter cake is further compressed by flexible membranes. This displaces free residual liquid from the filter chambers. Depending on the suspension and process conditions, this can achieve lower residual moisture levels and shorter filtration cycles.

 

AQUACHEM offers membrane filter presses for different requirements: from the compact, manually operated LCM 320 for laboratory trials, pilot projects and small batches to the fully automatic AF series for largely autonomous filtration processes. Plate format, filter volume, materials, process control and additional equipment options are tailored to the specific application.

Which Membrane Filter Press Is Right for Your Application?

 

The selection of the right membrane filter press depends on factors such as the suspension volume, required residual moisture, available space, required throughput and desired level of automation. AQUACHEM offers two series for different applications.
