Slurry Feed
The slurry is continuously fed to the filtration tank where the discs are located, and the disc surfaces begin the filtration process under the vacuum effect.

WORKING PRINCIPLE
Disc Vacuum Filter Working Principle and Process Steps
Continuous Vacuum Filtration
Vacuum draws liquid through the filter cloth while solid particles form a filter cake on the disc surface.
Cake Drying and Washing
The filter cake is washed as required by the process and further dewatered under vacuum to reach the desired moisture content.
Automatic Cake Discharge
As the discs rotate, a scraper system automatically discharges the filter cake. The filter cloths are cleaned and the system continues its continuous filtration cycle.
