:: ERT: Tracking the Progress of Pressure Filtration

It can be difficult for operators of pressure filtration systems to know what is going on inside the filter cake during filtration, washing and drying, and any miscalculation can result in wastage of time, effort and money. However, this may be about to change.

Thanks to a UK government funded project, Industrial Tomography Systems has been able to test its novel sensing technique- electronic resistance tomography- for pressue filtration on a commercial scale.

Peter Varley presents the results of the findings in the November 2004 issue of Filtration+Separation (pps. 16-18).
