Automatic Plate and Frame Filter Press for ETP Wastewater Treatment

Overview: Precision Dewatering for Complex Industrial Effluents
Managing sludge from industrial wastewater treatment (ETP) presents unique challenges, including variable chemical composition, high toxicity, and strict compliance requirements. As a specialized manufacturer and supplier of water treatment equipment, our Plate and Frame Filter Press delivers robust, reliable, and efficient sludge dewatering tailored for industrial applications. Designed to handle aggressive effluents and maximize solid capture rates, this system reduces disposal costs, ensures regulatory compliance, and enhances overall ETP efficiency.

Why Choose Our Plate and Frame Filter Press?

• Engineered for Industrial Effluents

Constructed with corrosion-resistant materials (e.g., polypropylene plates, stainless steel frames) to withstand acidic, alkaline, or high-temperature sludge.

Compatible with harsh chemicals used in ETP processes, including coagulants, solvents, and heavy metals.

• Exceptional Dewatering Efficiency

Achieves up to 50% lower cake moisture content compared to centrifugal or belt press systems, drastically reducing sludge volume and disposal costs.

High-pressure compression (up to 30 bars) ensures optimal solid-liquid separation, even for fine particles and colloidal sludge.

• Fully Automated Operation

Integrated PLC control system automates feeding, compression, cake discharge, and filter cloth washing, minimizing labor and human error.

Remote monitoring and data logging enable real-time performance tracking and predictive maintenance.

• Durable & Low-Maintenance Design

Reinforced hydraulic system and hardened components extend operational lifespan under continuous use.

Quick-release plates and accessible components simplify maintenance and cloth replacement.

• Customizable Configurations

Tailored to specific flow rates (1–200 m³/hr), sludge types, and space constraints, with options for membrane plates, overhead vs. sidebar frames, and central/side feed ports.

Key Features & Technological Advantages
Membrane Plate Option: For secondary squeezing with compressed air/water, achieving ultra-dry cakes.

Anti-Leakage Design: Precision-machined plates and seamless cloth sealing prevent slurry bypass.

Energy-Saving Mode: Variable frequency drives (VFDs) on feed pumps and hydraulic systems reduce power consumption by up to 30%.

Safety Compliance: Emergency stop buttons, pressure sensors, and mechanical interlocks ensure operator safety.

How It Works: The Industrial Dewatering Process
Sludge Conditioning: Polymer-treated sludge from the ETP is pumped into the filter press.

High-Pressure Filling: Slurry enters chambers between plates via feed channels; filtrate exits through cloths, while solids form cakes.

Compression Cycle: Hydraulic pressure closes the plate pack, squeezing out residual moisture (optional membrane inflation further compresses cakes).

Cake Discharge: Plates separate automatically, and dry cakes fall onto conveyors or bins for disposal.

Self-Cleaning Mode: Automated spray nozzles clean filter cloths between cycles (optional).

Applications Across Industries
Our filter presses are deployed in diverse ETP and industrial wastewater scenarios:

Chemical & Pharmaceutical Manufacturing: Dewatering toxic sludge containing solvents, APIs, or pigments.

Metal Processing & Electroplating: Treating heavy metal-laden sludge (e.g., nickel, zinc, chromium).

Textile & Dyeing Plants: Handling colored, high-COD sludge from dye wastewater.

Food & Beverage Processing: Managing organic sludge with high fat/content.

Mining & Mineral Processing: Dewatering tailings and clay-rich slurries.
