Generic, Windows® based computer software for the
selection, scale-up and simulation of solid/liquid separation equipment is
available from Filtration Solutions. The Filter Design Software® has been
developed in conjunction with a consortium of multinational
companies from a wide range of industrial sectors. To view the brochure,
including an order form, select

The selection module enables selection from 70+ solid-liquid separation
equipment types; there are many more if the variants within each type are
counted. Selection is possible from limited information related to the required
duty and the resulting ranked list of equipment can be further refined if
additional data are
available from simple laboratory experiments. The software provides interactive
procedures for analysing these data.
The Filter Design Software® is not only industry tested, it is also
intelligent and interactive whilst maintaining a user friendly interface for those less familiar with
solid-liquid separation. It is not only intended as an aid to equipment
specification, design and operation, but also as a training and educational aid
for use by both industry and academia. The software contains many explanations,
pictures and diagrams of equipment as well as practical constraints due to
equipment designs that affect equipment operation. These constraints are
built into the simulation procedures, as are many guards to guide the user to
avoid input errors.
