FILTER CLOTH

FILTER CLOTH, also known as industrial filter fabric or wastewater filter cloth, is a crucial material used in various types of industrial facilities. These include the sugar industry, starch industry, food industry, petrochemical plants, animal feed production facilities, edible factories, and more.

The primary function of industrial filter cloth is to separate solids from liquids, employing the fabric as a barrier or as facilitator to forming cake layer. The efficiency of capturing particles, whether small or large, depends on the pore size of the fabric or the air permeability of the filter cloth.

Principle of Filter Cloth

The operation of industrial filter cloth is a critical process employed in various industries to separate solids from liquids. Filter cloths play a pivotal role in enabling solid materials to coalesce and facilitate the filtration process. In this filtration process, slurry, a liquid containing suspended solids, may be passed through any filtration machines such as filter presses or other specialized filtration equipment, depending on the industry's requirements.

In the initial stages of this filtration process, small particles flow through the filter cloth, while larger particles are retained on the cloth's surface. Over time, a layer of cake, composed of these larger particles, accumulates on the filter cloth. This cake layer acts as an additional filter for smaller particles, progressively enhancing filtration efficiency. The cake layer obtained from this process is referred to as "CAKE," while the filtered liquid that passes through the filter cloth is known as "FILTRATE."

Key considerations for customers in the filtration process include:

Filtrate Clarity The quality of the liquid after passing through the filter cloth.
Filtration Time The duration required for the filtration process.
Cake Release The ease of removing the cake from the filter cloth after completing the filtration.
Clogging Prevention Measures to prevent the clogging of the filter cloth.
Cake Moisture The moisture content of the cake after the filtration process.

Type of Filter Cloth

Industrial filter fabrics are composed of a variety of materials designed to suit the specific filtration needs of each application. These filter fabrics can be categorized into three main types based on their fabric characteristics, as follows

1. Close Mesh Filter Cloth

Close mesh filter cloths are intricately woven with minimal gaps between threads, ensuring exceptional filtration efficiency. They are ideal for depth filtration and cake filtration.

2. Open Mesh Filter Cloth

Open Mesh filter fabric features a wide-open weave pattern, designed for precision in separation processes. Our fabric is manufactured to maintain consistent and micron-precise aperture sizes, making it suitable for Surface Filtration applications.

3. Felt (Non-Woven Filter Cloth)

Felt filter cloths are crafted by bonding fibers instead of weaving them, resulting in exceptional filtration efficiency. They are especially well-suited for depth filtration.
