Introduction
In chloride-process TiO₂ production, handling filter press filtrate presents critical challenges: valuable powder loss directly impacts yield, and frequent filter clogging causes unplanned operational downtime. This ongoing 20 m² micro-filtration pilot plant delivers compelling data to solve these exact issues.
The Pain Points & Our Solutions
Pain Point: Significant Product Loss in Filtrate
Solution & Result: >99% Solid Recovery Rate, consistently reclaiming TiO₂ fines that were once wasted.
Pain Point: Frequent Downtime for Manual Cleaning
Solution & Result: 30+ Days of Uninterrupted Operation, enabled by robust automated self-backwashing.
Pain Point: Inconsistent Filtration Quality
Solution & Result: 0.2 µm Surface Filtration, ensuring absolutely precise separation and a consistently clear permeate.
Pain Point: Low Throughput of Existing Filtration Systems
Solution & Result: High 400 L/m²/h Flux. This high processing capacity enables faster turnaround of large filtrate volumes, significantly increasing overall plant throughput without requiring a larger footprint.
Proven Technology
This record is powered by our latest LQ Series filters. Its 16-module design ensures operational resilience, while the core 0.2 µm surface filtration technology is the definitive solution to deep clogging—the root cause of downtime and purity issues. The integrated automatic backwash function is key to its success as a low-maintenance microfiltration unit.
Conslusion
This pilot plant delivers more than data; it delivers a quantifiable return on investment. By solving the critical challenges of powder loss and operational downtime, our filtration system directly translates to increased revenue from recovered product, reduced operating costs from less waste and maintenance, and future-proof scalability.
