Belt Filter Press Manufacturer
![]()
Compositech, a leading belt filter press manufacturer, has assemblies currently in operation in heavy industrial applications including belt press dewatering and wasterwater processing at chemical plants and municipal wastewater treatment plants. Our belt filter press systems are engineered for reliable, high-performance sludge dewatering across demanding industrial environments.
Belt Filter Press Design, Repair & Sludge Dewatering
The belt filter press dewatering machine is designed to concentrate sludge by means of progressive compression between two permeable belts. The “low pressure” zone of the belt filter press features the upper and lower belt converging to exert pressure on the sludge. A "high pressure" zone consists of 5 or 7 rolls around which the two belts are pressed. As the sludge is processed, the pressure exerted gradually increases to produce a high dry value in the final cake. The processed cake is removed from the belt filter press by doctor blades.

Compositech designed and manufactured SernaTech belt press filters under a joint venture with Sernagiotto Italy from 1999 through 2002. All SernaTech belt press filters were manufactured at our Pearland facility. We currently service these belt filter press machines and we keep a ready stock of replacement parts for many makes and models of filters in our inventory. With our spare parts inventory, we are able to expedite belt press filter part orders for our customers. We stock bearing assemblies, seals, gaskets, rollers, doctor blades, steering valves, plows and many other spare parts.

Belt Filter Press | FAQs
What are the key components of a belt press filter?
To ensure efficient dewatering and durability in abrasive applications, a belt filter press typically includes:
- Cantilever Frame: Allows for the installation of seamless belts and easy cleaning.
- Permeable Belts: Two continuous belts that transport and compress the sludge.
- Rollers: A series of rolls (usually 5 or 7) that create the high-pressure tension zone.
- Doctor Blades: Specialized scrapers that remove the processed cake from the belts.
- Support Parts: Essential components including bearing assemblies, steering valves, seals, and plows.
