Scraper discharge rotating drum filter

Scraper discharge rotating drum filter is a common open-type device featuring an external filtration surface. It is fed from the rear (or bottom) and uses a scraper for discharge.

The working principle of this filter is as follows: the filter cloth operates in sync with the rotary drum, and under the action of vacuum (negative pressure), it separates solids from liquids in the suspension.

Characterized by high automation and continuous operation, it is widely used in industries such as chemical engineering, pharmaceuticals, tailings processing, and environmental protection.

Application

This filter is suitable for filtering suspensions with moderate solid-phase concentration and specific gravity, and relatively uniform particle size. It is applicable in the following scenarios:

  • Suspensions where the cake thickness obtained within a 2-minute filtration time exceeds 5mm.
  • Suspensions where the solid phase has moderate specific gravity and particle size, resulting in a solid-phase settling velocity of less than 12mm/min.
  • Suspensions with low viscosity, no colloids, minimal filter cloth clogging, and easy filter cloth regeneration.
  • Situations where the filtration temperature is lower than the vaporization temperature of the suspension under the corresponding vacuum degree in the drum.
  • Suspensions where a small amount of solid particles remaining in the filtrate is acceptable.
  • Occasions requiring large processing capacity and continuous operation.
