Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of filtration technology, and more specifically, relates to an energy-saving filter. Background Technology

[0002] Filter presses are commonly used in mining, chemical, and environmental protection fields to achieve solid-liquid separation and material dewatering. Currently, existing filters mainly consist of a vacuum pump, a filter cloth disc, and multiple fan-shaped filter chambers on the disc. The surface of the filter cloth disc is covered with filter cloth. The main working principle is that the filter cloth disc is immersed in the slurry tank, and the filter cloth comes into contact with the slurry. Under the action of the vacuum pump, the liquid in the slurry is drawn into the filter chamber, while solid particles are trapped on the outer surface of the filter cloth, forming a filter cake. The filter cake can be scraped off by a scraper or other device to achieve unloading. Although existing filters achieve solid-liquid separation, the vacuum pumps used in these filters are oil-lubricated filter pumps. Oil-lubricated filter pumps require oil circulation for lubrication and cooling, which leads to high energy consumption and significant energy waste. Utility Model Content
