Liquid Filtration
Liquid Filtration
Liquid filtration is presented with similar problems to air and gas when faced with high temperatures and aggressive acidic conditions. Ceramic elements prove to be reliable and cost effective solutions to removing solids from water, chemical and petrochemical products, and other processes. The same features that benefit air and gas apply to liquid but with slightly differing filtration characteristics. The following table shows the retention capability for specific ceramic grades:
| Ceramic Element Grade | 0 | 9 | 8 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Nominal Retention (microns) | 1 | 2 | 6 | 20 | 40 | 60 | 150 | 230 |
Key Features
- Support Structure: for either filter bag/sleeves or a precoat filter medium.
- Chemical Compatibility: suitable for the filtration of aggressive liquids, including alkaline solutions and many acids.
- High Mechanical Strength: to withstand high differential pressures and in-situ back flushing
Typical Applications for Liquid Filtration
- Process Filtration
- Industrial Waste Water Treatment
- Filtration for chemical processing plant
- Paper and cardboard processing
- Solvent filtration
- Precoat filtration
- Liquid backwash
- Filtration of corrosive fluids
