What are the poor filtration effects of vacuum disc filters?

Answer:

Under normal circumstances, high vacuum, vacuum suction, high production capacity, filter cake moisture control is good. At present, some ceramic filters are equipped with two or multi-stage vacuum system to obtain almost absolute vacuum, and can reach 0.09 ~ 0.098MPa.
The concentration can change the properties of the suspension, because the viscosity is no longer constant when the concentration of the suspension reaches a certain value, and belongs to the properties of non Newtonian fluid. For the suspension of fine particles, the filter cake resistance of low concentration slurry is higher than that of high concentration slurry, so the filter performance can be improved by increasing concentration. If the concentrate concentration is high and the general treatment capacity is high, the running overflow can be used to increase the concentrate content. The concentrate concentration is too high to influence the agitation, and the high productivity can be achieved by adjusting the overflow position.
The spindle speed is slow, the formation time of growth in the area of vacuum filter cake, production capacity increased gradually, but because the unit time of grout thickness and spindle speed slow is proportional to, so the ceramic filter capacity in a range of showing the highest.On the other hand, as the spindle speed slows down, the thickness of the slurry is thickened, and the moisture of the concentrate is also affected. For viscous material, ceramic filter with ceramic plate to work as filter media, when the cake is formed gradually into the porous filter medium filter cake itself, and the cake is not easy to form a viscous material, forming a dry cake appearance does not slow, the spindle speed is easy to reduce the water content of concentrate. Similarly, the spindle speed is accelerated, the cake formation time in the vacuum zone is shortened, and the slurry thickness is reduced, and the material can be improved for the easy molding material. But the spindle speed is too fast to be cleaned after each cycle of the ceramic plate. As for the viscous material, the cake is difficult to form after the spindle speed increases, and it will affect the capacity. Therefore, the use of ceramic filter should focus on the inherent nature of the concentrate to explore the best spindle speed.
With the increase of the material level of the ceramic filter trough, the suction time of the ceramic filter plate in the vacuum zone increases, the thickness of the slurry increases and the productivity increases. But the drying time is relatively short, the water content of the concentrate will be increased. Select the best material level to ensure the production capacity and concentrate moisture requirements.
