Application areas for organic filter aids

• No restrictions. JRS organic filter aids can be used in all conventional precoat filter systems without a problem. The variety of JRS products especially developed for this application area guarantees an effective and economical solution for practically every filtration job.

• High cost effectiveness. In general, organic filter aids are especially suitable as efficient, economical and environmentally-friendly alternatives to diatomaceous earth and perlite.

• All-purpose. JRS products can be used up to a 100% as basic precoating and/or long-term dosing-completely analogue to diatomaceous earth or perlite.

• Unbeatable even in mixes. In certain cases, mixtures of organic and mineral components are advantageous and advisable.

• Safe and reliable. Organic filter aids form highly porous filter cakes with numerous voids and very fine canals. They securely hold fibrils and particles back and guarantee the user high throughput rates combined with long filter lifetimes.

• Especially under pressure. Due to their flexible, pressure-elastic and structure-lending properties, organic filter aids are also preferred for use as compressing and dewatering aids. The highly effective drainage action of organic fibres lead to measurably higher throughputs and product yields (filtrate), shorter pressing cycles and higher dry substance contents in cakes. At the same time, the fibres reliably prevent the smearing of the cloth and, as a result, make subsequent cleaning of the filter element much easier.
