Solid-liquid separating device, filtering apparatus, and solid-liquid separating method
A solid-liquid separating apparatus is provided with: a separating roll which has a substantially cylindrical shape with a plurality of through holes, which penetrate between an inner surface and an outer surface in radial direction thereof, and is rotatable in circumferential direction thereof; and a pair of separating filter cloths which is endless belts capable of traveling in a rotation direction of the separating roll and are wound around the outer circumference of the separating roll so as to overlap each other, wherein a material supplied between the pair of filter cloths is squeezed by being rolled together with the pair of filter cloths therebetween on the outer circumference of the separating roll, and the material is dehydrated by ventilating via each through hole.
1. A solid-liquid separating method comprising steps of:
traveling a pair of separating filter cloths which is endless belts wound around a separating roll having a substantially cylindrical shape with a plurality of through holes, which penetrate between an inner surface and an outer surface in radial direction thereof, and is rotatable in a circumferential direction thereof so as to overlap each other along a rotational direction of the separating roll;
squeezing a material, which has been supplied between the pair of separating filter cloths, between the pair of separating filter cloths on the outer circumference of the separating roll; and
dehydrating by ejecting a ventilation gas from the outer circumference of the separating roll via each through hole, the ventilation gas being supplied to an inside of the separating roll.
2. The solid-liquid separating method according to claim 1 , wherein a squeezing belt which is wound around an outer circumference of an outside separating filter cloth of the pair of separating filter cloths wound around the outer circumference of the separating roll travels along the rotational direction of the separating roll together with the pair of separating filter cloths, and the material is squeezed by the pair of separating filter cloths and the squeezing belt.
3. The solid-liquid separating method according to claim 2 , wherein expression pressure of the squeezing belt wound around the outer circumference of the outside separating filter cloth of the pair of separating filter cloths wound around the outer circumference of the separating roll is greater than the pressure of ventilation gas which is ventilated via the through holes.
