Filter press – Mining industry
Mining filter press
A mining filter press is a vital tool for the mechanical dehydration of mineral concentrates in the final stages of the mining process, reducing the moisture content thus facilitating subsequent processing stages. This type of filter press is commonly used to process a range of concentrates, including carbon, iron and lead, as well as non-ferrous metal concentrates and tailings such as red mud.
