PRESSURE LEAF

PRESSURE

LEAF

LANTERN pressure leaf filters (PLF) use internal filter leafs that provide submicron particulate removal. Sometimes pre-coated, they are designed specifically for high flow rates and can be configured for dry cake or sluice discharge and cleaning efficiency. These flexible filters can be configured in several styles including: Horizontal shell with vertical leafs for maximum surface area capabilities Vertical shell with vertical leafs for limited floor space or intermittent flow rates Single leaf Nutsche for efficient product recovery Pressure leaf filters are often used in the following industries: Brewery & Spirits Tallow & Edible Oils Sulfuric Acid Production Pharmaceuticals & Cosmetics Plating Bath Recycle Brine Polishing Sugars & Sweeteners Mining & Minerals Chemical Processing

Advantages:

- Reduces volume of sludge disposal
- Can be effective for zero liquid discharge (ZLD)

Disadvantages:

- Increases capital cost
- Large footprint

PROJECT BRIEFS

Oil Refinery Replaces Old Softening Equipment and Reduces Boiler Makeup Water Hardness with UPCORE™ Softening System

When an oil refinery in West Virginia needed to replace its softening equipment with a more efficient system, lantern helped the client install and run an effective UPCORE™ ion exchange system for minimal hardness and maximum results.

Major Petrochemical Plant Expands Plant Production with AMBERPACK™ Deionization System

In order to accommodate increasing production requirements at a prominent petrochemical plant in Mexico, the client consulted LANTERN to custom engineer a deionization system that could perform efficiently at a greater volume. Meeting the client’s needs, LANTERN provided a multifaceted solution to help the client effectively expand production while maintaining the water quality necessary for suitable boiler makeup water.

Specialty Metals Producer Optimizes Cadmium Recovery, Leveraging SAMCO Ion Exchange Technology for Wastewater Treatment

When a specialty metals producer in the Midwest needed an efficient solution for capturing cadmium from its wastewater streams, it looked to LANTERN for an ion exchange (IX) solution to maximize its resources.
