Phosphoric Acid Filtration – Process Optimization
Ensure unparalleled product quality by using premium-grade filtration materials.
Phosphoric Acid Solutions From Markert Group
Markert has decades of expertise in the application of phosphoric acid, allowing the development of tailored textile filter media designed to optimize the performance of any filtration system.
With Markert’s customized solutions, end customers achieve notable improvements, including reduced production costs, enhanced product quality, increased productivity, and an improved safety and environmental footprint.
Phosphate Rock Washing – Horizontal Vacuum Belt Filter
The concentration process aims to separate valuable minerals from unwanted gangue materials (non-minerals). Phosphoric acid is derived from apatite, commonly known as phosphate rock. To extract the phosphorus-containing components effectively, the rock undergoes grinding, washing, and a series of filtration processes, including dewatering using vacuum belt filters.
Markert provides high-quality filter belts engineered to enhance both performance and reliability. With decades of experience in phosphoric acid applications and advanced laboratory capabilities, Markert consistently delivers customized solutions tailored to meet diverse customer needs.
Markert filter belts are characterized by:
→ Excellent dewatering performance
→ High flow rates
→ Long service life
→ Precise fabrication
Through these advanced filtration solutions, Markert helps customers reduce operating costs, enhance product quality, increase process efficiency, and improve environmental and safety standards. Trust in Markert’s expertise for optimized filtration performance in every system.

Contaminated Water Removal and Recovery – Filter Press
Filter presses are essential for purifying contaminated process water, but they come with challenges like precise fabrication and ensuring strong filtration performance. Smooth cake discharge, in particular, plays a critical role in maintaining efficiency and reliability.
Markert Group stands out as a leading manufacturer of filter press cloths. By understanding the unique challenges presented in various industries, we can offer high quality solutions that are specifically designed to optimize operational efficiency for their application.
Markert Customized Solutions
We could run laboratory analysis of the filter cloth with subsequent analysis of the results. This includes determination of:
→ Filtration test and fabric screening with our pressure nutsche
→ Electric resistance through and along the fabric
→ Air permeability
→ Water permeability
→ Pore size through microscope
→ Weight
→ Binding type
→ Fabric material
→ Thickness
→ Yarn type
→ Abrasion behavior
→ Chemical resistance
