Pressure Screen for Corn Starch  

CCMC has redesigned the pressure screens used for the liquid-solid separation of fibrous non-abrasive materials with efficiency and simplicity in mind. The following is a list of unique standard features. Slurry is pumped into the header manifold at 40psig, and is directed to the 120°screen at a tangent through the feed nozzles. As the slurry flows down the screen, thin layers are sliced off by the screen, bar edges and pass through the slot opening to the filtrate port. Material in the slurry that is larger than the slot opening will be retained on the screen surface and move downward to the “oversize” port.
