Vacuum Drying System for Filter Presses
Micronics has recently introduced an accelarated drying system for filter press applications. The feed slurry is fed into multiple filter chambers by conventional pumping methods. The resulting filter cake is then heated via heated water introduced behind a plate membrane and moisture extracted under vacuum. The evaporation energy is supplied to the material to be dried from the internally ...

Framework for Selecting Thin-Cake Candle Filter Technology for Removing Solid Contaminant Fines from Recirculating Acid Gas Scrubbing Fluid Streams
ABSTRACT The need for filtration systems in scrubbing units has been well documented. Filtration provides the benefits of reduced hot spots in the regenerator reboiler. reduced heal exchanger fouling and reduction of foaming in the absorbers. This paper discusses thin-cake candle filter technology that is used to remove trace amounts of solid contaminant fines from the recirculating fluid stream. ...

Improving Process Operations with a Rotary Pressure Filter
A plant was experiencing high solvent usage and excessive volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions in the manufacture of a specialty chemical. In addition, off-specification product quality resulted from poor cake washing because the original solvent could not be displaced efficiently Long drying times and production bottlenecks were typical because of the extremely high final solvent content of ...
