When should you choose membrane squeeze filter press or filter plates?

Generally speaking, the basic types of filter plates include used with filter presses include chamber (recessed), plate-and-frame, and membrane (diaphragm) filter plates. And all of them are usually made up of reinforced polypropylene. As we all know, we should choose suitable filter press and filter plate when we deal with different materials. However, when should we choose membrane squeeze filter press or filter plates? Answers are as below.

Due to the unique design, membrane filter plates can squeeze out extra water from the slurry during filtration process. Therefore, you should consider choosing membrane filter press when:

1. The solid content in slurry is above average values.
2. The volume of slurry is variable.
3. You want to finish filtration in less time and need filter cakes with less moisture.
4. The separated solid materials or liquid is the actual product.

With the help of membrane filter plates, the dryness of filter cakes can be greatly improved. In addition to lower moisture, it can also reduce filtration cycle time, that is to say, it can deal with more slurry in the same time, comparing with other filter plates.
