Manual filter press solves the tailings dehydration problem in remote mining areas

Client: A small lead-zinc ore processing plant (in the western mountains)
Challenges:
Located in a remote area, the power supply is extremely unstable and there are frequent power outages.
The environmental protection standards are very strict. The tailings need to be piled up dry, but the traditional electric-driven equipment cannot operate reliably.
The budget is limited and the maintenance capability is weak.
Solution:
Use a manual hydraulic press box-type filter press, equipped with a diesel engine feed pump, to establish a complete dehydration system that is completely independent of the power grid.

Manual filter press
Outcome:
Achieved the standard: The tailings were pressed into a hard and dry filter cake, achieving safe dry stacking; all the filtrate was recycled, meeting environmental protection requirements.
Cost reduction and efficiency improvement: Equipment investment has been saved by nearly half. There is no electricity bill to pay. The operation and maintenance are simple, and the failure rate is extremely low.
Reliable and durable: Completely free from power outages, ensuring continuous and stable production.
Manual mechanical force has solved key environmental protection problems.
