Along with the development of environment protection, Belt filter press has been chosen by many customers by its features of continuous operating performance in sludge dewatering. Today we will introduce the cake moisture of belt filter press, to help our customers to understand if belt filter press fits their projects. 

The feeding consistency for belt filter press is usually 0.5-2.5%. After the first dewatering step, the consistency is about 5-10%. After belt squeezing, it is lose more liquid and form cakes. The cake moisture is 65-85%

Since the cake moisture is much higher than chamber/membrane filter press, why many customers still like belt filter press? Below are the reasons:

1.For some slurry like tunnel sludge, sand&stone wastewater, their cakes are unnecessary to be reused or dried, as long as the cakes are formed, they will discharge them. So these customers don’t care about cake moisture, belt filter press is enough for them.

2.Compared with chamber/membrane filter press, belt filter press is 24hours continuous running, its automatic belt rectifying and automatic alarm can reduce working labor, which is cost saving for customers.

3.The installation and operation of belt filter press is very simple. It is all-in-one deisgn, the customers don’t need to do installation on site, which is very convenient.

Therefore, despite of high cake moisture, belt filter press has many unique advantages, which makes it popular in wastewater treatment, more and more customers are taking it as the ideal sludge dewatering equipment.
