A pressing apparatus in a manner of a cage-type screw press, wherein the strainer cage is split up into a plurality of strainer-cage segments. The strainer-cage segments can be sealed along their adjacent sides with the aid of sealing devices so that liquids and solids are effectively prevented from escaping from the gaps between the strainer-cage segments.

Apparatus for pressing and drying a pre-defined amount of waste includes a metal main frame positioned to provide rigid support, and a body mechanically linked to the main frame through a plurality of linkage plates. The apparatus also includes an inlet vertically mounted on the body and a twin screw assembly to press and dehydrate the pre-defined amount of waste. A plurality of mesh screens is rigidly linked to the main frame along the longitudinal axis of the apparatus to remove compressed liquid. The body is also designed to support rotation of the twin screw assembly, and the inlet includes an ingress cross-sectional opening to receive the pre-defined amount of waste.

A juice pressing machine and methods for pressing juice from a foodstuff includes embodiments having a removable pressing chamber and one or more filters which may be assembled and loaded with macerated foodstuff to form thin layers separated by a pressing plate. Once a juicing operation has been completed, the pressing chamber can be removed from the machine for emptying the pressed filters and solids contents therein. The empty pressing chamber may then be rinsed if needed and reattached to the machine for a subsequent pressing operation with newly filled filter(s). The platen may also be easily removed from the machine for cleaning as desired.

A filter and multi-part brewing system for making excellent coffee of the pour over type are disclosed. A filter includes a circumferential wall that runs from a top rim to a bottom surface. The bottom surface of the filter is an undulating surface comprising a plurality of mini-cone units arranged in a waffle pattern, the mini-cone units comprising one or more holes. The brewing system comprises multiple sections configured to fit together with a filter and drip holes dimensioned for making excellent coffee.

A device is described for continuously pressing liquid out of a suspension, in particular a screw press, which may have a rotationally-driven rotor, which may rotate in a tubular screw housing and support a conveyor screw. The screw housing may be at least partially formed as a first filter jacket, which may at least partially interact with the conveyor screw and which may have radial passages for discharging the filtered liquid and which may supply a filter cake, made of retained solids, in the conveyance direction of the conveyor screw to a discharge. To provide advantageous filter conditions, a ring-shaped first sleeve, which coaxially encloses the rotor, for peeling off an outer filter cake layer from the filter cake may be associated with the rotor, downstream from the conveyor screw. A conveyance channel for the remaining inner filter cake layer may be provided between sleeve and rotor.

A slip casting mold is useful for producing a ceramic die cast part. The slip casting mold includes a first mold part with a first main part and a first filtration layer and comprising at least one second mold part with a second main part and a second filtration layer. The first main part is equipped with at least one first dewatering channel with at least one dewatering channel end that opens into a second dewatering channel within the second mold part or into a dewatering channel within an additional dewatering body in a casting position.
