What Is a Liquid Filter?
A liquid filter is a device designed to remove impurities from liquids.
Liquid filters are utilized across various industries including food production, pharmaceutical manufacturing, chemical industry, automotive manufacturing, power plants, and more. These devices come in different types such as depth filtration, surface filtration, and membrane filtration, and are chosen based on the size and shape of the impurities. The operating principle involves passing the liquid through the filter to remove impurities. The filtration is carried out as the filter pores become clogged, trapping impurities through methods like depth, surface, or membrane filtration.
The characteristics of liquid filters include impurity removal, prevention of clogging, corrosion prevention, and improvement of energy efficiency. However, when using liquid filters, attention should be paid to filtration precision, processing capacity, and heat and chemical resistance.
