Title: $1 Billion/yr. Market for Belt Filter Presses and Replacement Belts

Belt filter presses were developed in the 1970s and became popular just as the McIlvaine Company published the first issue of the Liquid Filtration Newsletter in 1980. This design rapidly replaced drum filters for many dewatering applications from sewage sludge dewatering to sludges in food, mining and other industries. Over the years the number of operating units has increased to more than 40,000. Each of these units regularly needs to replace belts. These belts are the heart of the operation and are relatively expensive. As a result, the annual market for new units and belts is over $1 billion/yr. worldwide. This is the latest forecast in the McIlvaine Liquid Filtration and Media World Markets. (www.mcilvainecompany.com)
