GORE Filter Tube Assemblies

GORE Membrane Filter Sock and Tube assemblies have a unique microporous membrane surface that prevents particles from becoming imbedded inside the membrane structure, resulting in higher throughput, less frequent acid washings, better upset recoverability, and longer effective life.

Features
  • Submicron filtration from 1 ppm to over 12 wt% solid loadings
  • High temperature and 0-14 pH tolerance
  • Thin, dense cake handling
  • Low filtration & back pulse pressures
  • Immediate cake formation
  • Quick cake release and settling time
  • Dense, high solids underflow
  • Fully automated
Benefits
  • Membrane quality separation at flow rates from 100 gpm to over 2000 gpm
  • Low capital costs
  • Low operating costs
  • Thickener & polish filter combination
  • Small (footprint)

Gore Membrane Filter Socks and Gore Filter Tube Assemblies Are Used in Kraft Pulp Mills, Chlor-alkali Plants and Other Process or Wastewater Filtration Applications in Chemical Processing Industries.

Kraft Pulp Mills

  • Used in white liquor and lime mud wash tubular pressure filters in the pulp and paper industry
  • Offer higher throughput, less frequent acid washings, better upset recoverability and longer effective life

Chlor-Alkali Processing

  • Used to purify the brine regardless of salt source in the Chlor-alkali process
  • Precoat-free technology replaces traditional three step filtration system 
  • Offer higher surface area and improved sealing characteristics
  • Provide higher flow rates in a convenient, easy to install format

Lithium Extraction

  • Operates like a candle filter to ensure efficient lithium extraction
  • Delivers submicron filtration for feeds anywhere from 1ppm to over 12 wt% solid loadings at flow rates from 100gpm to over 2000gpm.
Lithium separation: Eliminate sluice streams to improve overall output concentration
High Solids SeparationsReplace three steps: clarifier + sand/media filter + polish filter – with just one step.

Sticky Solids Separations

 

Mitigates fine particle penetration of the filter, allowing:

  • Quick back pulsing of thin, dense filter cakes
  • Avoidance of any flocculant, pre-coat, or body aid

GORE Membrane Filter Socks

  • Available in both PP and ePTFE felt backed laminates
  • Are used to purify the brine regardless of salt source in the Chlor-alkali process.

Purifying various process/wastewater streams in 100’s of installations worldwide, we have proven the success of our precoat-free technology in replacing a traditional three step filtration system (clarifier, sand filter, precoat filter) with a one-step filter.

GORE Filter Tube Assemblies

  • Have 2.5 times the filtration area of the GORE Filter Socks in a given volume
  • Leads to smaller and more economical filter vessels. 
  • Consist of a filter media and support element in one.

It is a simple “drop in place” making installation very easy.
