Application of industrial filter cloth in plate and frame filter press for pulp filtration in paper mills
With the development of the papermaking industry, higher requirements have been put forward for the efficiency, stability, and economy of pulp filtration and dehydration equipment. Among many filtration equipment, Plate and frame filter press Due to its high pressing force and high clarity of filtrate, it is widely used in the concentration and filtration of pulp. As a key component of the filtration system, Industrial filter cloth The performance directly affects the filtration effect and production efficiency.
I. Application of plate and frame filter press in paper mills
A plate and frame filter press is a batch-type solid-liquid separation equipment, whose structure consists of alternately arranged filter plates and filter frames, forming multiple filtration chambers. Under pressure, the pulp enters the filter chamber, the liquid permeates the filter cloth and is discharged, and the solid remains on the surface of the filter cloth to form a filter cake.
In the papermaking industry, plate and frame filter presses are mostly used for:
- Concentration step in the deinking process of waste pulp;
- Fine pulp filtration to improve the purity of the pulp;
- High-precision dehydration treatment of pulp in special paper production.
II. Role of industrial filter cloth in plate and frame filter press
The filter cloth undertakes the core filtration and separation tasks throughout the entire pressing process. Its performance determines the cleanliness of the filtrate, the quality of the filter cake formation, and the service life and replacement cycle of the filter cloth itself. The main functions include:
- Solid-liquid separation : The filter cloth needs to efficiently intercept fiber impurities in the pulp to ensure clear filtrate;
- Strong pressure resistance : The pressure is high during the operation of the plate and frame filter press, and the filter cloth must have good tensile strength and compression stability;
- Good stripping property : The filter cake should be able to smoothly detach from the filter cloth to reduce the sticking of the cloth and the cleaning time;
- Chemical resistance : Some pulp processing contains auxiliaries or alkaline substances, and the filter cloth needs to have certain corrosion resistance.
III. Key points for filter cloth selection
For the actual application of plate and frame filter presses in pulp processing, filter cloth selection usually needs to comprehensively consider the following factors:
- Fabric structure and density
Single-layer filter cloth is suitable for pulp with general concentration, while double-layer or composite structure filter cloth can improve the solid retention rate and filter cake quality. - Permeability and filtration accuracy
It is necessary to ensure the water permeability while effectively retaining fine paper fibers to improve the cleanliness of the filtrate. - Size and joint processing method
Customize the filter cloth size according to the filter plate specifications, and the edges can be hemming, leak-proof glue treatment, to improve the sealing and service life.
