Belt Filter Press

The Belt Filter Press is a proven technology for sludge dewatering. Belt Filter Presses can be used for all kinds of sludges, even demanding types.

The equipment consists of two parts: a thickening device and the belt filter press. The sludge is pumped into the thickener, where part of the water is removed and the sludge is spread evenly on the belt. The dewatering continues on the belts of the press, first in the free filtration zone of the upper belt and then in the pressing zone, by increasing pressing force between the belts.

The equipment is automatically pre- and postwashed, thus minimising the need for cleaning and maintenance of the unit.

Solid Water's product range includes 2 different belt filter press models:

• FTP for higher demands and for higher dryness
• FTPe for small plants and for lower volumes
