AI Technical Summary
In existing microcrystalline cellulose production equipment, impurities tend to adhere to the filter element during the filtration process, leading to a gradual deterioration in filtration efficiency. This necessitates frequent shutdowns to replace the filter element, thus affecting the purification efficiency of the cellulose solution.
The spiral filtration structure is adopted. By setting spiral filter plates on the outer wall of the main shaft, impurities are thrown towards the inner wall of the filtration device and discharged. Combined with multi-layer filter plates and porous filter membrane core, continuous filtration and multiple impurity removal are achieved.
It effectively avoids filter clogging, improves the purification efficiency of microcrystalline cellulose, reduces downtime for cleaning, and enhances production continuity.
