FIELD
[002] The present disclosure relates to the field of filtration equipment. More particularly, the present invention relates to pulp filtering equipment.
BACKGROUND
[003] Filtering the pulp from the slurry is a vital process that has to be performed in the paper and pulp industry. A disc filter is an equipment used to perform said filtering of said pulp from said slurry by means of a plurality of vacuum negative pressure-driven segments and attached pipes as well as a water collector mounted for solid-liquid separation of water recovery and a paper pulp thickening. In this process of said solid-liquid separation of water recovery and said pulp thickening, a configuration of said disc filter more specific to said segments and attached pipes as well as water collector configuration and geometry of said filtering segments are most imperative and decides not only the performance and quality of said pulp mat or thickening of pulp but also the consumption of energy required to deliver the desired output of water and pulp separation within the specified time. More specifically the disc filter intended to operate for high-consistency filtration of slurry is called a high-consistency disc filter.
[004] Whereas in the case of the conventional manufacturing method, said high consistency disc filter is manufactured by means a one-to-one pipe welding with a water collector, wherein said one-to-one welding of pipe can be an intricate process to weld the pipes with the water collector precisely as multiple pipes required to assemble with an accurate positioning in accordance with an intended functioning. Further, said pipes have multiple joints that make said welding process more critical to perform, and in case of any misalignment occurs in the configuration of said pipes can result in the complete rupture of said equipment. Furthermore, due to multiple joints of pipes, the flowing water within said pipes requires to change in the flow direction within said pipes as per the joints and geometry of pipe that germinates many hazardous effects which include but not limits to the conversion of streamlining water flow into turbulent one, induces chances of backflow water, chocking of water flow due to flowing residuals created by additional welding’s, the turbulent flow that can lead to the generation of unintended pipe wall erosion and can damage said wall as well as said pipe joint by striking said residuals, the connecting end of said pipe with the water collector which always in an overpressure condition as compare to other ends that disturb the flow balance of said piping across the flowing geometry. The assembly of multiple joint pipes preferably with a “Z” shape requires additional flow pressure to discharge the flowing water from said “Z” geometry of pipe, particularly at the lateral side connected with the water collector or disc means that is always over-pressured due to additional flow pressure required to discharge said flowing water which results into increase of self-weight of piping and said assembly which further requires a heavy rotating power source to create the bulky rotation of said assembly attached with the rotating power member to increase in electric power consumption and decreases the efficiency of the equipment. Finally, the sector with bags required to be assembled with said pipe joint with the joining means sector holder more specifically channel-shaped configure from top of said sector and pipe by only lateral fixing means that generates the various fluctuations which include but not limits to vibrations due to uneven application of flow pressure, fluctuated rotation of said disc and turbulent discharge of flow.
[005] Hence, there is a technical gap that exists that is required to be fulfilled by employing a streamlined pipe geometry with a more robust disc design and precise pipe configuration method for said high-consistency disc filter to achieve optimum performance and elevate the above-mentioned drawbacks.
SUMMARY
[006] The present invention envisages a method of manufacturing high-consistency disc filter and high-consistency disc filters made thereof, wherein a shaft configured with a mounting stand and a water collector configured with said shaft.
