View SpecificationsAs one of West Africa's leading economies, Ghana is witnessing an unprecedented transition from raw agricultural exports to localized value addition and sustainable industrial production. Flagship initiatives such as the **"One District One Factory" (1D1F)** policy are actively driving the establishment of domestic processing lines across rural and urban centers alike.
In processing environments such as cassava starch extraction, palm oil production, fruit juice processing, and municipal wastewater treatment, the handling of fibrous slurries and thick sludge remains a critical bottleneck. High moisture retention in residual cake not only elevates transportation overheads but also accelerates decomposition, negating efforts to convert processing waste into clean energy or animal feed.
This is where **industrial-grade Single Screw Presses** prove indispensable. By applying continuous, mechanical squeeze pressure via a tapered rotating screw within a cylindrical screen, these systems achieve remarkable solid-liquid separation. Compared to traditional decanters or filter presses, they offer a low energy profile, continuous automation, and minimal maintenance overheads under tropical operational conditions.
For over three decades, we have designed, manufactured, and deployed concentration, evaporation, and mechanical dewatering equipment for heavy industry worldwide. Our state-of-the-art facilities ensure that every piece of machinery conforms to the absolute highest international standards.
Achieving low residual moisture in fibrous materials requires precise control over pressure gradients and shear stresses. Our engineering team designs screw presses utilizing progressive compression mechanics, ensuring maximum liquid extraction without compromising screen durability.
As the material moves from the feed inlet to the discharge gate, the flight pitch decreases while the shaft diameter increases. This progressive change steadily increases pressure, forcing the liquid fraction through the screen while forming a dense, self-filtering solids cake at the discharge.
We manufacture our screen baskets using high-grade SUS304 or SUS316 wedge wire. The triangular profile of wedge wire prevents clogging and blinding by ensuring that any particles passing through the initial gap flow freely, keeping maintenance intervals long.
A dynamic, pneumatic cone at the discharge gate maintains uniform resistance against the escaping solids. Operators can adjust the pneumatic pressure in real-time, allowing them to optimize moisture content even when feeding consistency varies.
Jiangsu Zongheng is located in Zhoutie Town, Yixing City, on the shores of Taihu Lake—a premier hub for heavy industrial manufacturing in China. This strategic location gives us access to a highly integrated industrial ecosystem, offering key advantages for our global clients:

Importing heavy industrial equipment requires careful planning to ensure smooth integration on site. At Jiangsu Zongheng, we provide comprehensive engineering and logistical support to guarantee successful project execution in Ghana:
All motors and control panels are customized to match Ghana’s electricity grid parameters (400V, 50Hz, 3-Phase). Control cabinets feature IP65-rated enclosures to withstand tropical humidity, and we supply high-performance ABB, Siemens, or Schneider components for long-term reliability.
Our equipment designs align with the safety and performance standards of the Ghana Standards Authority (GSA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) of Ghana, helping processing plants meet strict effluent discharge standards.
To minimize downtime, we supply a comprehensive multi-year spare parts package, including replacement screens, seals, and hardfaced screw shafts. We also offer remote diagnostic support and can dispatch engineers for on-site commissioning and operator training.
Industrial drying and dewatering processes are evolving rapidly, driven by rising energy costs and stricter environmental regulations. Modern factories are moving away from energy-intensive thermal drying, opting instead to maximize mechanical dewatering to reduce fuel consumption.
Key trends shaping the industry include:
Common questions from plant managers and procurement teams about implementing single screw press technology in Ghana.
Depending on the fiber content and starch processing configuration, our single screw press can dewater cassava bagasse/residue from an initial moisture level of 85–90% down to a stable 55–60% cake. This significant reduction in water volume allows downstream thermal flash dryers or airflow dryers to operate with much lower fuel consumption.
Using high-grade SUS304 or SUS316 wedge wire, our screens typically last 12 to 24 months in continuous, 24/7 agricultural processing environments. If the material contains abrasive solids, such as sand or soil from unwashed cassava or palm bunches, wear rates may increase. We offer wear-resistant screen coatings and replacement parts to ensure long-term durability.
Yes, our progressive screw presses are designed for oily and greasy materials. The low rotational speed prevents emulsification, ensuring clean separation of free oils and water from the fibrous cake. The screw flights can also be equipped with brush or scraper attachments to keep the screen surface clear.
Standard equipment configurations are typically manufactured within 45 to 60 days. Highly customized lines involving custom alloy selections or integrated control systems may take 75 to 90 days. Shipping from Shanghai Port to Tema Port, Ghana, generally takes 35 to 45 days, with full tracking and customs documentation provided.
Yes, all of our industrial lines can be supplied with integrated PLC control cabinets (utilizing Siemens, Allen-Bradley, or Omron processors). These panels monitor drive motor load, control pneumatic backpressure valves, and interface with upstream/downstream plant automation systems via standard protocols like Modbus or Profinet.
