FILTER PRESS
Toro Equipment’s sludge dewatering equipment, manufactured in-house, presents a robust solution for treating waste generated from both urban and industrial wastewater treatment processes.
The achieved high cake dryness enables efficient waste management, significantly reducing waste management costs.
Draco® Filter Press:
Achieve higher dryness levels, thus reducing the cost of managing generated sludge.
Result in easily transportable sludge, avoiding issues such as liquid overflow in containers.
Enable stacking of dewatered sludge, simplifying management, composting, and logistical operations.
Total reliability 24 hours a day. Unassisted operation thanks to the cake shaking system.
Require minimal water consumption for the process.
Entail low maintenance costs.
TYPES OF FILTER PRESS
The range of filter presses comprises five different models. Prolong the lifespan of your equipment with materials manufactured through environmentally conscious processes. All machines, regardless of model and size, are characterized by:
Manufacture using stainless steel St 37-2, AISI 304, and FRP.
Surface finish with epoxy paint to protect them from potential corrosion.
