SICOSOL offers customize designed Horizontal Pressure Leaf Filter for ASH filtration in Sulphuric Acid & Sulphonation Plants.

Process involves addition of Filter Aid and pre-coating leafs uniformly, once proper precoating is done, filtration process starts and after pre-calculated time when filter is loaded, drying takes palce, after drying filter has to be open manually and clean the cake.

We offer below two types of design for this application

  • 1. Shell retraction: filter body/shell is retracted back while head and leaf bundle is stationery.
  • 2. Leaf bundle retraction: in this type filter head and leaf bundle moves while opening.

The filter element is the actual heart of each filter and most problems with pressure leaf filters are caused by poor leaf construction and design. SICOSOL provides variety of filter leaves differing in shape, design and d material choice. We also repair and rebuild your filter p elements. Filter elements are available in any form viz or single layer, multi-layer, with or without frame made from optimal wire mesh meeting all your requirements.

  • a. Range of filters for micro filtration up to 3 microns
  • b. Single/multi bag options available to enhance selectivity

Micro Polish Filter

Micro polish filter is available in 1 to 5 microns with single bag or multi bag system for efficient and economic filtration of solvent liquid, vegetable oil, syrup with low medium solid content and they are designed for use with standard filter bag. In this filter, the filtration is done through a filter bag made of filter cloth. The liquid enter inside a bag and come out after filtration on the outside periphery. The filter cake has to be cleaned by removal of the bag. Hence they are installed in pairs but used one at a time.

Multibag Polish Filter

Multi-bag polish filter are designed for use with standard cartridges available in various sizes and mesh, varying from 1 to 5 micron such as diamond wound filter cartridges, pleated filter cartridges activated filter cartridges and ceramic and porous stainless steel cartridges. SICOSOL glad to meet your specific request in accordance to your factory standard.

The Candle Filters are, as all pressure filters, operating on a batch cycle and may be seen in process lines handling titanium dioxide, flue gas, brine clarification, red mud, china clay, fine chemicals and many other applications that require efficient low moisture cake filtration or high degree of polishing.

Candle Filters are also used for thickening to produce a concentrated flowable slurry by partial removal of the liquid phase as filtrate. This mode of operation is possible since Candle Filters may operate on very short cycle times taking advantage of the high filtration rates whilst the cakes are still thin. One of the features of Candle Filters when used for thickening is their clear filtrate since gravity Thickeners, in analogy, produce overflows which always contain a certain amount of fine suspended solids.

The main operation of sparkler filter press is to filter the impure liquid. Arriving on top of each horizontal plate with increasing pressure, the filter media holds back the impurities and allows the filter to pass through Centre by interlocking cups, which takes the filtrate to the outlet of the filter. The cake formed between the horizontal plates can also be obtained. The function of filtration process becomes slow when the liquid reached its holding capacity into the cake.

Magnetic Filters are used for filtration of iron particles from products in liquid/slurry form. They are essentially used in chemical, food, pharma and oil industries. They are also frequently used in hydraulic circuits in cooling systems. The Filter Magnets are made up of either Ceramic or High Intensity Rare Earth Magnets

Compete range is available from 21” to 60”
Application- Edible oil, Pharmaceutical & Petrochemicals

 

These filters are used for filtering solid contaminants from Vegetable oil and Solvent Mixtures. these are widely popular amongst our clients for reducing the need for frequent cleaning of downstream equipment and the necessity of expensive plant shutdowns.

This is widely used in Effluent Water Treatment Plants for final filtration of treated water before discharging or using it, after this filtration water becomes sparkling white and clean in appearance

This is also widely used in Effluent Water Treatment Plants for pre-filtration of treated water before carbon filtration, after this filtration water becomes suitable for final filtration

Easiest way of separating Solid / Liquid or Dry / Wet mixture, widely used in Edible Oil Seed Processing Industry to separate Oil / Mote. Also used in Pharma, Chemical, Sugar, Beverages, Pulp, Grains & Effluent Processing.

The major benefits is Long Life because of simple & trouble-free operation,

We offer various sizes based on capacity

A device through which a liquid is passed for purification, filtering or separation from solid matter; anything (including a screen or a cloth) used to strain a liquid.

A perforated screen or openwork (usually at the end of a suction pipe of a pump), used to prevent solid bodies from mixing in a liquid stream or flowline.

Complete range & sizes for “Bucket” & “Y” type strainers.
