Vacuum filtration for large suspension volumes
Handling large quantities of suspension is a common requirement in various industrial processes, such as mining, chemical processing, and water treatment. The challenge is to achieve efficient filtration with minimal space and energy consumption while maintaining a high operational throughput.
Achieve efficient filtration with high throughput
The BoVac Disc filter from BOKELA is a high-performance vacuum disc filter known for its large filter area and compact design. It offers superior reliability and cost-effectiveness and is capable of filtering and dewatering large amounts of suspension. With outstanding hydraulic properties, the pressure losses are minimal, allowing high specific throughputs. The BoVac Disc filter operates fully automatically and is highly adaptable to process variations, making it suitable for industries such as coal, base metals, potash/fertilizers, alumina, and tailings. Key components like fiber-reinforced polymer segments, trapezoidal filtrate pipes, and a pre-separating control head contribute to its efficiency. The modular design allows customization with various sizes and filter areas up to 352 m² per unit, ensuring the filter meets specific process conditions with ease.
