A filter plate assembly for a filter press is provided. The filter plate assembly includes at least a first filter plate and a second filter plate, which cooperate to define a filter chamber when the first filter plate and the second filter plate are in a filtering position. At least one of the first filter plate and the second filter plate is movable from the filtering position to a discharge position in which a filter cake can be discharged. In other configurations, the filter plate assembly can include a first filter plate, a second filter plate and a center filter plate or frame, which cooperate to define a filter chamber. The center filter plate or frame is movable from a filtering position to a discharge position.

A high-efficiency filter press includes a filter plate for solid-liquid separation, a material pool for storing materials and transporting the materials to the filter plate, and a filtrate pool for storing filtrate flowing out of the filter plate, wherein the filter plate is provided with a feed hole, a first drain hole and a second drain hole, the material pool is in communication with the feed hole through a feed pipe, the first drain hole is in communication with the filtrate pool through a first drain pipe, the second drain hole is in communication with the filtrate pool through a second drain pipe. The filter press further includes a washing device which is configured to inject washing water into the first drain hole to allow the washing water to flow out from the second drain hole into the filtrate pool after flowing through the filter plate.

A grid and a vat for a vat assembly of a vertical filter press such as a tower press is disclosed. The grid is provided with a topographical pattern engaging with a corresponding, inverse topographical pattern on the filtrate vat. The topographical patterns guide the filtrate flow towards a filtrate outlet and reduces the formation of vortices and turbulent flow of the filtrate, hence increasing the filtrate flow rate through the vat. Simultaneous, the topographical patterns improve secure attachment of the grid onto the vat, thereby allowing increased travel speed of the filter medium during advancement thereof. As a result, the cycle time of a filtration process may be reduced, and consequently, the overall capacity of the associated filter press is increased. A filtrate vat assembly and a vertical filter are also disclosed.

A filter press includes a plurality of filter plates, a hydraulic cylinder, a follower plate through which the hydraulic cylinder is configured to apply pressure to the plurality of filter plates, and a spacer rod configured to transfer force from the hydraulic cylinder to the follower plate. The spacer rod is coupled to the follower plate by a moveable support that is displaceable between a home position in which the spacer rod is aligned with the hydraulic cylinder and a disengaged position in which the spacer rod is unaligned with the hydraulic cylinder.

The present disclosure provides an urban river channel direct purification device. The device includes a support wall panel arranged vertically, an upper tray and a lower tray arranged horizontally, an upper end of the support wall panel is connected with the upper tray, a lower end of the support wall panel is connected with the lower tray, the upper tray and the lower tray are respectively semi-circular, several filler biological walls are disposed between the upper tray and the lower tray, a top end of each filler biological wall is fixedly connected with the bottom of the upper tray, a bottom end of each filler biological wall is fixedly connected with the lower tray, and the filler biological wall is arranged along a radial direction of the upper tray/lower tray. The device can purify the water of the river channel through the adsorption material in the device.
