Eff ic iency of f i l t rat ion

Rate of f i l t rat ion depends on:  properties of filtrate (viscosity)

particle characteristics (size, distribution …)

Improvement – agglomeration by coagulation (change of electrical

separation forces), flocculation (aggregation of particles), filter aids

(improve permeability of cakes)

pressure drop (can make worse filterability of suspensions with

compressible cakes)

physico-chemical phenomena (electrical double-layer at filtration of 

fine suspensions decrease diameter of pores)

Time cyc le of cake fi l t rat ion 

Filtration 

Cake wash ing (3 stages): 

hydraulic displacement stage – 90% mother liquid removal

intermediate stage – mother liquid content in discharge decreases

mass transfer stage – residual solutes are removed by diffusion

Cake dewater ing: 

 Air displacement dewatering (3 stages):

- liquid displacement by air 

- liquid draining by air 

- liquid evaporation Compression dewatering by belt or membrane

Cleaning and set together of f i l ter

Plate-and-frame press has 25 frame with inside dimensions 600 600

40 mm. Volumetric concentration of particles in slurry is 6 % and volumetric

content of filtrate in cake is 20 %. Determinate volumetric capacity of this filter.Volume of washing water is 10 % from total volume of filtrate and total

operating time is 30 min. Filtration and washing is realized for same and

constant value of pressure. Viscosity of filtrate is 1.5 mPa•s and washing

water is 1 mPa•s.

Following values of filtration constants were obtained on experimental filter 

for identical condition: a = 66.7 h•m-2, b = 0.67 h•m-1
