    Study Notes

    Agitated Nutsche Filter Components

    • The main filtration component of the Agitated Nutsche Filter is the filter medium, which is typically a cloth or membrane.

    Agitator Purpose

    • The agitator in the Agitated Nutsche Filter system is used to facilitate the flow of slurry and to prevent cake formation on the filter medium.

    Development of Agitated Nutsche Filter

    • The development of the Agitated Nutsche Filter was led by the need to overcome the limitations of traditional Nutsche Filters, such as slow filtration rates and poor cake washing.

    Temperature Control

    • The entire vessel of the Agitated Nutsche Filter can be kept at the desired temperature through the use of a jacket or limpet coil, which allows for the circulation of heating or cooling fluids.

    Hydraulic Power Pack

    • The hydraulic power pack in the Agitated Nutsche Filter system is used to lift the filter plate, allowing for the separation of the filter cake from the filtrate and easy discharge of the filter cake.
