The CONTIBAC® is a slightly modified FUNDABAC® filter used as a continuous thickener, producing concentrated slurries. Clear filtrate at a high flow-rate is achieved. Solids are flushed back into the liquid and the thickened slurry is drawn off intermittently or continuously without interrupting filtration. This filtration process mainly applies to processes where continuous flow is required. For inquiries or further information, please complete and return one of our Application Questionnaires.
