The vacuum belt filter modernisation at the boric acid filtration plant covers a filter unit with a 60 m² active filtration area, configured for a hot filtration process. Hot filtration is the mode of operation in which the solution is fed to the filtration step without being cooled. The work covered process design, equipment fabrication, site piping, electrical and automation integration and commissioning, all delivered by Miyay Process.
The filter equipment was produced by laser cutting, stainless welding and precision machining, and the control side was built with PLC and SCADA integration. The unit was installed at Eti Maden's boric acid filtration plant in Kütahya in 2018.
