Exploration/Mining - Case Study
The overflow of the settling tank is pumped to Sofi Filter via a centrifugal pump. Due to the filter`s cross-flow design, part of the feed flows through the filter element and part returns to the process.
In this application Sofi Filter is equipped with a 10 um metal wire mesh element. The filtrate from Sofi Filter can be drained or reused. Sofi Filter reduces the amount of water in the settling tank and concentrates the solids so that they can be removed with the screw conveyor.
The applicability of Sofi Filter is wide. Please visit our website www.sofifiltration.com for more information.
