Abstract
Modern high-performance disc filters such as the BoVac disc filter have set new standards in applications where large capacities of solids, liquids and air must be managed through the filters. These disc filters have an enormous hydraulic capacity. For applications in mineral processing, with a special focus on tailings (which typically have high solids throughputs but low filtrate and air flows), this capacity can be used to expand the filtration area while maintaining the benefits of very good cake discharge, even with thin cakes (4–5 mm) and a high filter speed. Research work over the last century has proven that increasing the filter area should be achieved by increasing the disc diameter because adding more discs leads to big problems with the cake discharge: i.e. the filter cake is not, or is insufficiently, blown off on the filter discs furthest away from the control head. However, as the disc diameter increases, the filter segments become longer and heavier. A suitable compromise was therefore found by doing both. The result is the first vacuum disc filter that offers significantly more than 300 m² of filtration area yet has no more than six discs.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
