01Advantages of sludge thickening filter press:

1. Reduce the costs of thickening and filtration operations

Using the sludge thickening filter press reduces the middle convergence costs of thickening and filtrating operations which need the pump, buffer pump pool and steel tube to be connected. Therefore, using the sludge thickening filter press greatly reduces the costs in the auxiliary devices, equipment labor management, and energy consumptions.

2. Save the occupied area of the thickening and filtering operations

Generally, the conventional thickening and filtering operations may occupy lots of areas, but the sludge thickening filter press effectively reduces the overall footprint and saves the fixed assets investment.

3. Facilitate centralized management

Using the sludge thickening filter press can set the thickening and filtering operations in a working shop, which significantly facilitates project management.

02Disadvantages of sludge thickening filter press:

1. Complex structure and difficult to maintain

The commonly used thickening equipment and filtering equipment each is responsible for only one work respectively, therefore, the structure is simple and the size is bigger. The sludge thickening filter press combines two structures, so its structure is more complex, difficult to maintain.

2. Small processing capacity

The diameter of a conventional sludge thickener can be up to tens of meters to a hundred meters. For example, the diameter of Xinhai peripheral transmission thickener is up to 53 meters, and the filtration area of the filtration equipment can up to be more than one hundred square meters. For example, the occupied area of a single Xinhai disc vacuum filter can be 116㎡.

From this we can see, large and medium-sized mineral processing plants that use the sludge thickening filter press can benefit a lot. As a leader in the production of thickening equipment and dewatering equipment manufacturing, Xinhai Mining can provide various specifications thickener and filtration equipment to meet the different requirements of customers.
