DetailsPerlite filter aid grades provide the user with a density advantage from 20 to 50% over other types of filter aids. Perlite filter aid dry density ranges from 100 to 200 kg/m3 (6 to 12 lb/ft3), and the filter cake density range is 100 to 270 kg/m3 (7 to 17 lb/ft3). In contrast, other filtration materials produce equal performance filter cakes ...
DetailsPerlite filteraid - Dicamol(R) can be used with their pressurized and vacuumed equipments. If perlite filters are used in rotative vacuum filters; filter pulps can provide less cracks rather than other perlite filter aid. DICAMOL(R)'s exclusive processing system removes grit from the Filteraid thus making it as pure as possible.
DetailsIn a recent study, perlite filter aid was used in combination with a sand filter to remove Cryptospo-ridium-sized polystyrene microspheres from swim-ming pool water [3]. The use of a sand filter alone removed only 19% of the microspheres, while adding a thin layer of perlite (1.2 kg·m-2) resulted in a nearly 98% removal.
DetailsManufactured by EP Minerals Celatom Perlite is a filter media of high porosity that is manufactured from perlite ore, which is an igneous mineral. When a particle of perlite ore is heated to approximately 2400°F the aluminum silicate becomes a molten liquid glass that expands explosively due to the intrinsic moisture present within the particle.
DetailsPerlite Filter Aid. AUSPERL perlite filter aids are produced in a full range of grades to economically meet the flow rate and clarity requirements of almost every industry. Perlite is a generic name for a naturally occurring siliceous volcanic rock. A unique property of perlite is that it expands up to twenty times its original volume when it is heated to its softening …
DetailsOur most recent innovation, the ImerVin™ Efficace range, is a high-performance filter aid designed for the filtration of grape juice musts and post-fermentation lees. It's proven to be effective at lower dosing rates, improves filtration capacity and reduces juice and wine losses in the filter cake. Our ImerVin™ 800 and ImerVin™ 1200S ...
DetailsOften, spent filter cake may be down-cycled for further use, resulting in the elimination of waste through reuse of the entire filtrate. More information on this can be found in the document Perlite Filter Aid and the Circular Economy available on the Perlite Institute website, at Some typical reuse applications include:†

DetailsPerlite filter aids are available throughout the world. Any manufacturer desiring to use the product can usually obtain it packaged in bags or in bulk. In the past 65 years, Perlite filter aids have gained acceptance in almost every industry concerned with the separation of liquids and solids. The following list, although not all-inclusive ...
DetailsUnexpanded ("raw") perlite has a bulk density around 1100 kg/m 3 (1.1 g/cm 3), while typical expanded perlite has a bulk density of about 30–150 kg/m 3 (0.03-0.150 g/cm 3). Template:-Production and uses [] ... Perlite filters are fairly commonplace in filtering beer before it is bottled. Small quantities of perlite are also used in foundries, ...
DetailsTypical press aids include sawdust, rice hulls, perlite, and diatomaceous earth (see Diatomite). A vertical screw press is a continuous press that has been used for dewatering sewage sludge (2). Filter aids as well as flocculants are employed to improve the filtration characteristics of hard-to-filter suspensions.
DetailsPerlite is an amorphous volcanic glass that has a relatively high water content, typically formed by the hydration of obsidian.It occurs naturally and has the unusual property of greatly expanding when heated sufficiently. It is an industrial mineral, suitable "as ceramic flux to lower the sintering temperature", and a commercial product useful for its low …
