From PF Online: Filtration: A Simple Solution for a Big Problem: New Product From: Products Finishing, Edited by Hannah Coombs, Assistant Editor from Products Finishing ~ Posted on: 2/1/ ~ Filter Press Cloth Blinding can be a major issue. Precoating might be the answer.
Filter Press Case Study: Turning water into Gold: To dewater the gold concentrate, Met-Chem installed a MM filter press, and to eliminate the need for tailing ponds, Met-Chem designed a MM filter press to dewater the tailings concentrate.
Filter Press Case Study: No time to Waste – Emergency Filter Press Repair and Replacement: The client contacted Met-Chem with an immediate need for repair. Aside from the safety concerns of a damaged press, a filter press cannot run with a broken skeleton. For this application, waste was continuously generated, which rendered this an emergency situation.

Typical applications being:-
And there are many more industries where filter presses are used….
In recent years, several factors, including the Statutory Legislation controlling discharge to waste of unsuitable effluents, shortage of land for lagoons or drying beds, shortage of water and in some industries a search for additional by-products of a process, have brought about a new appraisal of filter presses.

Where the material to be filtered contains finely divided solids especially in the sub-sieve and sub-micron sizes, and where it is difficult to separate the liquid from the solid, a greater force is required to effect the separation efficiently. The filter press can produce a higher pressure than either the centrifuge or the rotary vacuum filter or belt filter. It is often the only unit suitable for filtering slurries, which have low filtration rates.
