Core Functions of Disc Filter Bags in the Iron Concentrate Industry

Disc filter bags are vital parts of disc filters and are widely used in iron ore concentrate processing. Made from materials such as polypropylene, polyester and nylon, they are installed on fan-shaped filter plates to achieve efficient solid–liquid separation through vacuum filtration, pressing or gravitational settling. They are used for the dewatering, purification and process optimization of iron ore concentrate, and are essential for improving product quality and efficiency.


The core functions of disc filter bags are as the follows:

1. Efficient solid-liquid separation and precise control of product moisture content

The microporous structure of disc filter bags intercepts solid particles (iron concentrate) while allowing liquids to permeate and drain out. When combined with mechanical pressing or vacuum suction from a disc filter press, deep dehydration can be achieved.


2. Intercept impurities and improve the grade of iron concentrate

The pore size of the disc filter bags can be customized to accurately intercept fine sludge, as well as high- and weak-magnetic impurities. This improves the iron grade of the concentrate.


3.Suitable for multiple process scenarios, optimize production flexibility

In iron ore concentrate production, significant differences exist in terms of ore properties, process stages and product requirements. Disc filter bags can be adjusted to suit different needs in terms of material, pore size, and weaving method.

4. Improve equipment efficiency and ensure continuous production

The disc filter consists of multiple fan-shaped filter discs, each covered with filter cloth to form a 'multi-filter chamber parallel' filtration system. The disc filter cloth's efficient filtration characteristics (large unit filtration area and good permeability) can significantly improve the equipment's processing capacity.


Disc filter bags are essential for achieving efficient solid-liquid separation in the iron ore concentrate industry. Thanks to precise pore size control, flexible material adaptation and efficient dewatering capabilities, they significantly enhance the quality and production efficiency of iron ore concentrate.
