The invention relates to a method for filtering a suspension in a filter device comprising a sequence of steps, including piping the suspension into the filter chamber between the filter cloths, directing the suspension through the filter cloths, discharging a liquid fraction of the suspension through the first duct and the second duct out of the filter chamber and through the first outlet of the first recess plate and the second outlet of the second recess plate as a filtrate, and piping a drying gas from the head piece into the filter chamber through the first duct and discharging the same through the second duct. The invention further relates to such a recess plate that is designed for packing a plurality of specimens of the recess plate into a pack between a stationary head piece and a moveable end piece of a filter device.

A pressure filter dewatering system and a method, which includes a pressure filter, an extrusion dewatering assembly, and a negative pressure dewatering assembly. The pressure filter includes a plurality of filter plates and filter cloth; a first chamber used for accommodating a solid medium to form a filter cake can be formed between adjacent filter plates; a liquid inlet hole allowing suspension liquid to enter the first chamber and a liquid outlet hole allowing filtrate to flow out of the first chamber are formed in each filter plate; each filter plate includes a core plate and two membranes respectively located on two sides of the core plate; a second chamber is formed between the core plate and each membrane; and a first channel and a second channel which communicate with the second chambers are arranged inside the core plate.

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 filter (20) configured to separate the solid components and the liquid components from a slurry. The filter (20) includes a plurality of filter plate assemblies (46) that cooperate to define a plurality of filter chambers (70), each defining a perimeter (96) having an open section (98) when the filter plates (68) are in a closed position relative to one another. Each filter plate assembly (46) includes a closure (104) configured to close the open section (98). Preferably, the closures (104) are movable to an open position to permit a particulate cake to be removed from the filter chambers (70) without separating the filter plates (68).

For sewage sludge reduction, an apparatus includes a front-end auxiliary filter plate, a back-end auxiliary filter plate, and a plurality of filter plate modules disposed between the front-end auxiliary filter plate and the back-end auxiliary filter plate. Each filter plate module includes a middle main filter plate, a middle auxiliary filter plate, and a plurality of electromagnetic modules comprising an electromagnetic coil wound around an electromagnetic core. The middle main filter plate and the middle auxiliary filter plate are disposed at opposite sides of the electromagnetic modules. A plurality of microwave generators send microwaves through microwave acting channels to irradiate the sewage sludge. An electric current is applied to the electromagnetic coil, attracting the middle auxiliary filter plates and the main filter plates and applying pressure to the sewage sludge.

A method of operating a filter press, wherein filter material is fed into a filter chamber so as to form a filter cake between at least two sides of a flexible said filter medium. Filtrate is received from the filter chamber and the filter cake formed the filter chamber is discharged. Prior to discharging the filter cake, compression is applied on the filter cake formed within the filter chamber by providing compression fluid gas at a compression pressure exceeding a prevailing pressure within the filter chamber, directly on a side of the filter medium exterior to the filter chamber, so as to exert said compression pressure directly on said side of the filter medium, thereby causing the filter medium to yield against the filter cake.
