PELLETIZING PROCESS(BENEFICIATION PROCESS) FOR MAKING FILTER CAKE//Pellet Making part-1

Part 2 video link :-    • PELLETIZING PROCESS//Subhajit Mondal//part-2   A filter cake is formed by the substances that are retained on a filter. The filter cake grows in the course of filtration, becoming "thicker" as particulate matter is retained. With increasing layer thickness, the flow resistance of the filter cake increases. After a time, the filter cake has to be removed from the filter, e.g. by back flushing. If this is not accomplished, the filtration is disrupted because the viscosity of the filter cake gets too high; hence, too little of the mixture to be filtered can pass through the filter cake and the filter plugs. The specifications of the filter cake dictate the filtration method of choice. ########################## #########################
