Pressure leaf filters are a proven cake filtration technology that are installed in thousands of installations worldwide. While the filter vessels operate for decades, the filter leaves need to be replaced a few times during the lifetime of the vessel.
The quality and condition of your filter leaves are critical to the productivity and performance of your pressure leaf filter system. Replacing worn or damaged filter leaves will result in an immediate improvement in system performance.
Envirogen offers high-quality filter leaves for almost every make or model of pressure leaf filter available on the market. Our Envi Leaf filters have a re-enforced box profile as standard with a five-layer mesh configuration and the very latest in high-flow nozzle technology.
Envi Leaf filter leaves can be used across a wide range of applications including:
- Edible oil processing (crude oil, bleached oil, winterised oil)
- Gelatine processing
- Pectin processing
- Glucose, sweeteners, sugar, fruit juice production
- Bio-diesel production (pre-treatment and polishing)
- Liquid sulphur filtration
- Chemicals and oleochemicals
- Organic and inorganic salts, amines, resins and bulk drugs
