    摘要: Provided is a filtration system and process that enhances mineral removal from sludge through a novel recirculation and mixing apparatus. In one example, the system may include a filter configured to remove minerals from sludge, a pump configured to move the sludge towards the filter, a pre-filtering system configured to add an agent into the sludge prior to the sludge making contact with the filter, a drainage collection system including one ore more reservoirs configured to collect water drained during and/or after the filtering and feedback the drained water to the pump, and valving configured configured to mix the drained water with the sludge to generate a mixture which is moved by the pump towards the filter.
