    The document summarizes the rotary drum vacuum filter process. It consists of a sheet metal drum divided into sections holding a filter medium and cloth. Liquor is sucked through the septum to deposit a cake, which is then moved out of the filtering zone, washed, dried, and removed from the septum. The drum rotates slowly in the slurry tank for cake formation, then enters washing and cake removal zones to complete the continuous filtration process.

    (SHARMA.D & 201525)
    ROTATORY DRUM VACUUM FILTER
    INTRODUCTION

    The most common type of continuous vacuum filter.

    The rotary drum filter in which liquor is sucked


    through a moving septum to deposit a cake of solids.

    Cake is moved out of the filtering zone, washed,


    sucked dry and dislodged from the septum.
    CONSTRUCTION

    It is consisting on a sheet metal drum.


    A vacuum system is also attached.
     The surface of the drum is the divided into different
    section by stripes.
    Filter medium is hold by metal strips on drum and
    covered by filter cloth.
     In each section there are many pipes which open
    inside the cover plates.
    To remove the cake “Doctor knife” is provided.
    WORKING

    Before filtration rotary drum filter is dip in tank of filter aid


    for pre- coating (e.g. Diatomaceous earth, perlite or purified
    wood cellulose).
    Drum is rotated in slurry tank at a speed of 1 to 2 rpm. 1/3 of
    drum is dip in slurry tank and vacuum is applied.
    Cake formation.
    As, the panel leave the cake formation zone it enters to
    washing zone.
    As, the panel leave the cake formation zone it enters to
    washing zone.
    Cake removed in cake removal zone.
    Limitations

     It cannot be used for mixture of colloidal and coarse


    particles.
     It must be used continuously.
