Vertical Pressure Leaf Filter for Crude Oil Filtering

Crude oil filtering vertical pressure leaf filter is an efficient and automatic pressure leaf filter widely used in the filtration processing of crude oil. Greatly improve the filtering efficiency and oil quality for the oil industries.

Why Vertical Pressure Leaf Filter Important for Crude Oil Filtering?

Crude oil is the oil that has just been squeezed by the oil press, and is pre-pressed without refining. Crude oil obtained by pressing and leaching method contains a certain amount of suspended solids, the content is generally 3%-5%, and the crude oil obtained by screw oil press machine contains more suspended solids than 15%. If these suspended solids are not cleaned up in time, the suspended solids will promote the hydrolysis and rancidity of the oil, which will easily cause excessive emulsification during oil refining, which will increase the difficulty of operation, increase the loss of oil content, unstable quality and reduce product yield. This is why the crude oil filtering is important and necessary.

Vertical pressure leaf filter solves the problems in the oil industry that machine-pressed crude oil such as cottonseed, rapeseed, and castor oil is difficult to filter and slag is not easy to discharge.

Vertical Pressure Leaf Filter Features & Advantages

LOREEK VPLF series pressure leaf filter equipment has been widely used in the oil filtration industry for many years to filter and remove impurities in crude oil, such as cottonseed, rapeseed, castor, sunflower seed and other machine-pressed crude oil. This kind of pressure filtration equipment has unique structure design, small footprint, good filtering effect, high filtrate transparency, good fineness, no material loss, and no consumables such as filter paper, filter cloth or filter element, so the operation and maintenance cost is extremely low. Moreover, the vertical pressure leaf filter equipment has the advantages of convenient operation, convenient maintenance and cleaning, etc. It is an ideal crude oil filtration equipment in the oil industry.

Vertical Pressure Leaf Filter Advantages

1. No need for filter cloth or filter paper, greatly reducing filtration costs.
2. Fully enclosed operation, environmentally friendly, no material loss.
3. Vibration removes slag and greatly reduces labor intensity to achieve continuous operation.
4. The pneumatic valve discharges slag, which greatly reduces the labor intensity of workers.
5. For filtration or dehydration filtration of slag or activated carbon (white clay) in the liquid, it can replace the plate and frame filter and is an equipment in the filtration industry.

Pressure Leaf Filter Working Principle

The Vertical Pressure Leaf Filter’s filter pump pumps the filtrate into the filter tank through the liquid inlet pipe and fills it up. Under the action of pressure, the solid impurities in the filtrate are intercepted by the filter screen on the filtrate, and a filter cake is formed on the filter screen. The filtrate passes through the filter screen and is filtered. The nozzle enters the liquid outlet pipe and flows out of the tank to obtain a clear filtrate. As the filtration time of the blade filter increases, more and more solid impurities are trapped on the filter screen, so that the thickness of the filter cake increases continuously, which increases the filtration resistance and the pressure in the tank. When the pressure rises to the specified value When it is necessary to discharge the slag, stop the input of the filtrate into the tank and blow the compressed air into the tank through the overflow pipe, pour the liquid to be filtered in the tank into other containers, and dry the filter cake. Turn off the compressed air, open the butterfly valve, start the vibrator, make the filter leaves of the leaf filter vibrate, shake off the filter cake on the filter screen and discharge it through the slag discharge port under the tank.
