FAQs of Rotary Vacuum Drum Filter:
Q: How does a Rotary Vacuum Drum Filter work in industrial filtration?
A: A Rotary Vacuum Drum Filter operates by continuously rotating a drum through a slurry or suspension. As the drum surface passes through the liquid, vacuum pressure pulls liquid through the filter media while solids form a cake on the drums exterior. The collected solids are then discharged as the drum rotates out of the slurry zone, allowing for efficient separation of solids from liquids.
Q: What are the benefits of using a corrosion-resistant Rotary Vacuum Drum Filter?
A: Using a corrosion-resistant Rotary Vacuum Drum Filter extends service life, reduces downtime from maintenance, and ensures consistent filtration performance, even with aggressive chemicals and harsh process fluids. This makes them a cost-effective solution for industries dealing with corrosive substances.
Q: When is it advisable to use a Rotary Vacuum Drum Filter in wastewater treatment?
A: It is advisable to use a Rotary Vacuum Drum Filter when high-efficiency solid-liquid separation is required, especially in continuous operations or where process fluids contain fine particulates. They are particularly effective for primary sludge dewatering, chemical precipitation, and recovery of valuable solids in wastewater treatment.
Q: Where can these filters be installed for optimal performance?
A: Rotary Vacuum Drum Filters can be installed in industrial plants, wastewater treatment facilities, chemical production sites, pharmaceutical manufacturing units, and mining operations. For optimal performance, these filters should be installed upstream or within process lines where continuous removal of solids is necessary.
Q: What materials are available for the construction of your Rotary Vacuum Drum Filters?
A: Our filters are available with construction in stainless steel, mild steel, or a polypropylene lining. Material selection depends on the chemical and physical properties of the process fluid to ensure maximum compatibility and longevity.
Q: How does the design contribute to maintaining high efficiency (up to 99%)?
A: The design ensures up to 99% efficiency by providing continuous filtration, a robust vacuum system, and adaptable filter media tailored to the application. This combination maintains a high solid capture rate and consistent performance across varied operating conditions.
