The Waghmart Filter Press is designed to dewater sludge efficiently in Sewage Treatment Plants (STPs) and Effluent Treatment Plants (ETPs). It helps reduce the volume of wet sludge, making it easier to handle, transport, and dispose of while ensuring compliance with pollution control standards.
Waghmart’s Filter Press is a robust and easy-to-operate sludge dewatering machine that uses a series of recessed plates lined with filter cloth. Under pressure, it separates water from solids, producing dry filter cakes and clear filtrate. Built using MS powder-coated / SS304 frames, it is suitable for industrial, municipal, and commercial STPs.
