2400 L Filter Press For Gravel Wastewater Slurry Separation


The 2400 L filter press is a batch-operated solid-liquid separation system designed for industrial slurry dewatering. It works by pumping slurry into chamber plates where solids accumulate on filter cloths to form a compact filter cake. The system is widely applied in mining, ceramics, stone processing, and chemical wastewater treatment. It provides controlled filtration pressure, stable cake formation, and efficient filtrate discharge through manifold channels for downstream water reuse or safe disposal.

Product introduction of 2400 L Filter Press

The 2400 L filter press is an industrial dewatering machine designed for separating suspended solids from liquid in slurry-based wastewater. It consists of multiple chamber plates and filter cloths that operate under hydraulic pressure to form dense filter cakes. The equipment is suitable for handling high-solid-content wastewater generated from mining, stone processing, ceramics, and chemical industries. It helps reduce sludge volume and improve water recovery efficiency. The system is built for stable operation under demanding conditions, supporting continuous industrial filtration requirements with consistent performance and controlled process handling.

Working principle

Slurry is pumped into the filter press and distributed into chamber plates. Solid particles are retained by filter cloths while liquid passes through as filtrate. Gradually, solids accumulate and form a filter cake that acts as a depth filtration layer. As pressure increases, chambers become fully filled with cake. Filtrate exits through corner ports and manifold channels. After the cycle is complete, the press is opened and the dewatered cake is discharged for further handling.
