Lubricant filtration issue
Thread Content
Hello, dear teachers. I’m facing a problem: the lubricant contains a large amount of tiny impurities that need to be filtered out. When using medium-speed filter paper and 400-mesh filter cloth under pressure in the laboratory, filtering does not work. I would like to ask if anyone has any good equipment or methods that could solve this issue Thank you. My company needs to process around 15 to 30 tons of this type of oil per day. Additionally, this oil cannot be heated; its viscosity at 40 degrees is around 55. Thank you again; I’m waiting anxiously for an answer {:2_32:}
If there are too many impurities, try using a cyclone separator or similar device before filtering
Hello, there aren’t many impurities, but they are very fine and suspended in the oil
Since the impurities are very light, I don’t think the cyclone method will work; I still think filtration is a better option
If gravity cyclone filtration cannot be used, then filtering with a filter medium is the only option. According to you, this is due to an insufficient filtering area; therefore, the filter should be made larger, two filters should be used and switched back and forth, with backwashing carried out when necessary
Given your large volume of oil processing, it is recommended that you seek out a professional company specializing in oil processing equipment; they can help you make recommendations
Thank you very much. Please tell me your contact information. Thank you
The key issue is not knowing what kind of filter and filtering material would be suitable; this is also what I’m seeking advice on
Someone recommended diatomaceous earth filtration equipment to me. I don’t know how such equipment works or whether it’s effective ? What is the difference between him and the clay plate and frame filter? I have clay plate and frame filtration equipment, but I don’t understand the differences between them
Centrifuge, centrifuge – there is absolutely no issue with clogging; you can contact me. :victory:
It uses a vacuum filter with four filters: two for coarse filtration and two for fine filtration, and the results are good. You can switch the cleanup filter; give it a try.
