Applications
Suitable process families and documented materials.
The following materials represent successful applications; final suitability should be confirmed through material review and testing.
Food and agricultural materials
Suitable food-process solids, crop hulls and fibrous materials after hygiene and breakage review.
Mining and polymers
Mineral solids, plastic granules and other coarse particulate products.
Pharmaceutical processing
Filterable pharmaceutical products where construction, containment and cleaning are engineered for the duty.
High-salinity wastewater
Recoverable salts and filterable solids from concentrated wastewater streams.
Working Principle
From feed preparation to finished product.
The process route is selected around the material and product targets.
Continuous feed
Suspension enters the high-speed rotating basket continuously through the feed system.
Centrifugal filtration
Liquid passes through the filter screen and perforated basket wall, while solids are retained on the screen surface.
Cake formation and dewatering
The retained solids form a cake and remain under centrifugal force for continued liquid removal.
Differential scroll conveying
Relative speed between the basket and scroll moves the cake continuously toward the solids-discharge end.
Continuous phase discharge
Filtrate leaves through the liquid outlet while dewatered solids discharge automatically from the opposite route.
Performance Highlights
Process performance shaped around the product.
Final performance remains dependent on feed properties and engineering confirmation.
Continuous filtration
Feed, liquid removal and solids discharge proceed continuously without routine shutdown for cake removal.
Automatic scroll discharge
Differential basket-to-scroll speed conveys the filter cake automatically to the discharge end.
High separation efficiency
High centrifugal force accelerates filtrate flow through the screen and promotes effective cake dewatering.
Low energy consumption
The continuous mechanical arrangement supports high productivity with relatively low energy demand for suitable feeds.
Clear feed suitability
Suited to relatively coarse crystalline, granular and fibrous materials with good filtration behavior.
High production efficiency
Continuous operation and automatic discharge reduce manual handling and support large-scale production.
Broad industrial use
Applications span chemical, food, salt, mining, pharmaceutical, polymer and high-salinity wastewater processing.
System Configuration
Standard process path with project-specific options.
Core equipment and auxiliary systems are selected around the process duty.
Filter basket and screen
The screen opening and perforated basket are selected for particle retention, filtrate capacity and cleaning requirements.
Differential scroll
Controlled relative speed between the basket and scroll provides continuous cake transport and automatic discharge.
Feed system
The feed arrangement is sized for stable distribution and continuous loading of the filtration zone.
Wear protection
High-load scroll and discharge surfaces can be protected with wear-resistant or replaceable components.
Drive and automation
The continuous feed, filtration and discharge sequence can be integrated with variable-speed control and process interlocks.
