Overview

Comparative study examines filter aid effects on specific cake resistance and filter medium resistance.

Key Points

  • Filter aids significantly reduce specific cake resistance, enhancing filtration efficiency and lowering energy use.
  • Results indicate that increasing concentrations of filter aid lead to decreased filter medium resistance during operation.
  • Using perlite and diatomite as filter aids in varying concentrations showed improved results in vacuum leaf and plate and frame filters.
  • Overall, filter aids contributed to lower power consumption by effectively minimizing filtration resistance.
