Filtration for Industrial Processes
Neos Group designs filter presses for solid-liquid separation in industrial applications.
Our plate-and-frame systems separate solids from liquid to support sludge dewatering and other filtration needs.
Built with durable components, our presses serve wastewater treatment, chemical processing, mining, electroplating, and other operations that require solid-liquid separation.
Each press is configured for the customer's material, capacity, and operating requirements.
How the Press Works
Slurry is pumped into the press. Pressure drives liquid through the filter cloth while solids collect between the plates as a filter cake.
- 1
Feed
Slurry is pumped into the filter press.
- 2
Filtration
Liquid passes through the filter cloth; solids remain in the chambers.
- 3
Pressurization
Pressure is maintained to remove more liquid.
- 4
Cake Discharge
The plates separate so the filter cake can be removed.
Main Components
Filter Plates
High-strength polypropylene plates designed for effective filtration.
Support Frame
Epoxy-coated carbon steel or stainless steel options for durability and corrosion resistance.
Filter Cloths
Available in materials and pore sizes selected for the application.
Benefits
Effective Dewatering
Separates solids from liquids and can achieve up to 80% dryness in the filter cake, depending on the material and operating conditions.
Water Recovery
Filtered water may be recovered for reuse where appropriate, reducing freshwater demand and operating costs.
Lower Disposal Volume
Drier solids can be easier to handle and may reduce transportation and disposal costs.
Automated Controls
Available automated controls reduce manual intervention and support safe operation.
Operating Efficiency
Energy and chemical use depends on the application; the system is configured to support efficient dewatering.
Adaptable Design
Configured for different sludges and industrial processes.
