Rotary Drum Filter, Other ConfigurationsThe basic configurations for the use of the Disposable Rotary Drum filter is shown in the Operational Flowsheet. Although this configuration may be sufficient for most of our users, this device is very versatile, below is just few of the additional ways that this device can fit your processing needs. If you have any other configurations that you are considering feel free to contact us at support@steadfastequipment.com. Cake Washing Configuration
Chromatography Applications The Disposable Rotary Drum Filter can also be used to simply simple single stage chromatography applications. Although this could be accomplished in a number of configurations, the ability of this device to continuously remove the solid cake that collects on the drum surface (this cake could be chromagraphic resin) opens up a wide range of processing possibilities. Catalyst Recovery If the vent connection on the Disposable Rotary Drum Filter is supplied with the appropriate gas, the closed nature of this device allows solid-liquid separation to occur under a controlled atmosphere. This could be very advantageous in the recovery of catalyst and other reactive materials, using a low cost, simple, and cost effective device. If the Disposable Rotary Drum Filter is used in this type of application, it should be noted that it is note designed to accommodate any positive pressure. As a result, the user would have to take the appropriate precautions to make sure that the device was not exposed to pressurized conditions. Filter Media Options Because of the simple construction techniques for this device, a variety of porous plastic filter media can be specified. This option could include the use of filter media that is impregnated with other materials, like activated carbon, to facilitate two separation steps at once.
