Practical tailings slurry dewatering and tailings …
The pressure in the plates is increased and held to allow time for the pressure to force water through the fabric. When the plates are parted, the dried tailings fall onto a conveyor and are removed. The production rate is dependent on the time for filtration to take place and a cycle time of 8–15 minutes is common.
