A chamber filter press is a machine for separating sludges, slurry or fluids containing solids into solid ‘cake’ and liquid ‘filtrate’ parts.

A filter press machine is used extensively in the treatment of waste and by-products in the food, chemical, mining and pharmaceutical industries. The cake and filtrate can be recycled back into the process, sold off for further processing or disposed of more economically.
