  • Plain weaves are typically used for basic dewatering and have high drainage rates. They are the easiest to clean.
  • Twill weaves are best for combination sludges with course particulate material,typically found in industrial waste. They offer greater capture and improved cake release over plain weaves.
  • Satin weaves are recommended for fine sludges. They have high capture rates and offer good cake release. They can be more difficult to clean.
