Diatomite is a natural product. It is derived from fossilized diatoms and their shells. Also known as kieselguhr or diatomaceous earth, it consists mainly of silica. After processing, diatomite exhibits a range of properties that make it ideal for filtration. Additionally, due to its low weight, high insulation, and fire and acid resistance, it is also used in various other applications. In filtration, diatomite is used as a filter aid for precoat filtration. The principle works equally well with pressure, vacuum, or drum filters. The diatomite forms a so-called filter cake with very fine pores and a high filtration degree. This can remove even the tiniest particles from a liquid. Such filter quality is especially needed in the production of oils for industrial use or in the production of food and beverages. For example, a diatomite filter can remove yeast and other particles from beer or wine.
An industrial application example for diatomite filters is the filtration of abrasion from grinding oil. Without a precoat filter, the conventional filtration system of a processing plant does not achieve the necessary fine filtration to filter out fine grinding dust, as occurs, for example, in the processing of cast materials. The same issue arises with other materials, resulting in the regular filter medium clogging quickly. Diatomite filters in the systems prevent this. However, you don't necessarily need a new filter of this type. Used filtration systems work just as reliably. To ensure that you can rely on Foeth’s filtration systems for a long time, all filters undergo extensive technical inspections by our equipment and machinery professionals before leaving our warehouse. After shipping, you can immediately use the filters from renowned manufacturers. Buying used equipment saves you high investment costs and also contributes to your company’s positive environmental footprint.
