Agitated Nutsche Filter Dryer

The Agitated Nutsche Filter Dryer (ANFD) is specifically engineered to meet the stringent demands of the pharmaceutical and fine chemical industries for efficient solids washing, separation, and drying under challenging conditions. This versatile filter-dryer system allows for both filtration and drying processes to be completed within the same vessel, significantly improving process efficiency.

ANFD systems are particularly suited for liquids with a high solid content, where the liquid phase is mechanically separated through a permeable filter medium under vacuum or pressure. The height-adjustable agitator optimizes filtration, enabling uniform filter cake formation on the horizontal base of the filter, ensuring superior solid recovery. The system also supports the mechanical discharge of solids, making it highly efficient for production.

As one of the top Agitated Nutsche Filter Dryer manufacturers in India, Shiv Shakti Process Equipment offers high-performance ANFD systems that meet the strict standards of the industry. Our Agitated Nutsche Filter Dryers are designed with precision to deliver enhanced filtration and drying capabilities, helping businesses achieve better production outcomes.
