Abstract

Mechanical dewatering by filter pressing has received renewed interest as press design, filter media, unit capacity, and automation have improved. The ability to produce a dry cake and low filtrate SS, are major advantages. Technology and experience in the United States is very limited, and design for a particular application should include prototype filter press tests, and bench studies.
