CONTUFILT-M

How It Works

• Filtration - catalyst-bearing liquid passes through metallic filter candles arranged in a tube bundle.
• Reverse flow - in-situ reverse flow enables effective cleaning and maintains performance.
• Washing - integrated washing removes residual contaminants from catalyst cake.
• Gas-assisted discharge - catalyst is discharged as slurry or semi-solid cake using gas support.
• Closed operation - cleaning and preparation occur without opening the system.
