Working Principle and Application of Plate and frame Filter

2025-10-21
The main part of the plate and frame filter press is a set of filter chambers consisting of filter plates and filter frames in alternating order. When working, the slurry will be transferred by feeding pump from the feeding hole on the thrust plate to all chambers, under the pressure of the feeding pump. Solid particles in the slurry will be trapped in the filter chambers and form into filter cakes slowly, and liquid will pass through the filter clothes and come out of the outlet holes. Solid and liquid will finally be separated after one filtration cycle.

As a mature solid-liquid separation equipment, the plate and frame filter press is widely used for mining, metallurgy, petroleum, chemical, medicine, textile, printing, paper making, food, alcohol, inorganic salt, coal washing, dyeing, and sewage treatment industries.

Compared to the later chamber type filter press, the plate and frame filter press can use filter cloth and filter paper together; these two filtration mediums can treat the slurry that contains solid particles under 1 micron. In addition, the top corner feeding hole way is more suitable for treating big specific gravity material such as Alumina slurry.

Although plate and frame filter press is a kind of intermittent filtration equipment, but its simple structure, convenience operation, higher solid content of filter cake after filtration and clear filtrate liquid, these advantages make it has higer share on market of filtration equipment.
