Product introduction of Sieve Bend Screen Filter
The sieve bend screen filter is a gravity-driven solid liquid separation equipment designed for industrial wastewater and municipal pretreatment systems. It operates without power, using the natural flow of wastewater to pass through a curved stainless steel wedge wire screen.
Wastewater is evenly distributed over the inclined screen surface via an overflow weir. Suspended solids are intercepted on the screen while filtered water passes through the gaps. Solid materials are gradually pushed downward and discharged at the bottom.
Due to its simple structure and high reliability, the static screen filter is widely used for solid-liquid separation, sludge pretreatment, and valuable material recovery in industrial production.


Working principle
The static screen filter works based on gravity flow and physical separation. Wastewater is introduced onto a curved wedge wire screen surface through an overflow distribution system.
As wastewater flows downward:
- Liquid passes through narrow screen gaps
- Suspended solids are intercepted on the surface
- Solid particles gradually slide down due to gravity
- Collected solids are discharged at the bottom outlet
- Filtered water is collected separately for further treatment
This process ensures efficient solid-liquid separation without energy consumption or mechanical movement.
