Starch is a primary foodstuff using corn, wheat, potatoes, tapioca and rice as raw material to produce in enormous quantities. Commercial starch production is a wet process, and the filtration is one of major process in the production of high quality starch.

The cylindrical screens are often to be found in the centrifuge equipments. They are widely used in the starch industries for dewatering processes. WEB WRE MESH can offer filter meshes and filter elements to install in the rotary drum filter for dewatering and solid to liquid separation.

Basic Principle

The liquid enters centrifuge cylindrical screen, under the rotating function of pressure cylindrical screen and centrifugal force effect,removing solids from water. The filters operate under pressure, which forces water through the slit, while the solid particles larger than hole diameter are blocked on the screen surface.
