Customer Case: 40m² Automatic Hydraulic Box-type Filter Press Helps Improve Sludge Dewatering Efficiency in Sand Washing Plant

Customer Background

This is a medium-sized sand washing enterprise in Thailand, which mainly supplies mechanical sand and natural sand to surrounding construction sites. With the expansion of production capacity, the volume of slurry generated during the sand washing process has been increasing. The original sedimentation tank’s processing capacity is insufficient, resulting in high transportation costs for the slurry and significant environmental pressure. The customer hopes to install a filter press to achieve on-site sludge dewatering, reuse of clean water, and reduction of sludge cake transportation volume.

Customer requirements

•

Process the washed sand slurry. The requirement is for the sludge cake to have a low moisture content and be easy to load and transport for external delivery.

•

The filtrate should be clarified and can be reused in the sand washing process, reducing water consumption for new water supply.

•

The equipment should not occupy too much space. The operation and maintenance should be simple.

•

The budget should be controllable. It is hoped that the manufacturer can provide customized configurations and matching filter cloths.

Solution

After communication and cost analysis, we recommend the XMY40/630-30 (40m²) automatic hydraulic box-type filter press to our customers:

700-type carbon steel frame Strong structural rigidity, suitable for continuous intermittent operation in sand washing sites
Automatic hydraulic pressing Uniform and stable pressing force, good filter plate sealing, reducing leakage and lowering workers’ labor intensity
49 pieces of 700×700mm PP plates Corrosion-resistant, lightweight, equipped with hand handles for easy plate pulling operation
Double clear liquid outlet Visual and intuitive liquid outlet on both sides, facilitating observation of filter liquid clarity
Manual plate pulling Simple structure, few fault points, suitable for intermittent cake discharge rhythm
Complete Accessories Complementary 50 pieces/filter cloth and plastic water nozzles included

Implementation effect

After installation and commissioning, the equipment was put into operation. The customer’s feedback was:

  • ✓ Significant decrease in sludge cake moisture content
  • ✓ Clear filtrate that can be reused
  • ✓ Simple operation and easy training
  • ✓ Stable operation and low failure rate
  • ✓ Compliance with environmental protection standards

Customer review

This 40m² filter press is perfectly suited for our processing capacity. The hydraulic pressing saves a lot of manpower. The double-ming effluent is clearly visible, and the filtered liquid can be reused, reducing water costs. The manufacturer’s configuration, tailored to our sand washing conditions, is very practical. The filter cloth water nozzles are all equipped, and it can be installed and used immediately.

Summary of the Case

For sand washing and sand making enterprises, the 40m² automatic hydraulic box-type filter press achieves a good balance between production capacity, floor space, and investment. The automatic hydraulic pressing ensures sealing and efficiency, while the manual lever plate controls costs and maintenance difficulty. The double-ming flow is convenient for quality monitoring. Combined with factory-customized configurations and complete accessories, it can quickly be implemented to form a closed-loop treatment of “sludge separation – clean water reuse – mud cake reduction”, suitable for small and medium-sized sand washing sites, sand and stone aggregate factories.
