The precoat process involves mixing the filter aid into clear liquid or mother filtrate in a tank. Diatomite filter aids usually work best with a precoat slurry concentration in the 0.3–0.6 wt.% range. This slurry then goes to the filter where the filter medium captures the solids. The clean filtrate returns to the precoat tank.

Filter aids may be applied either as precoat on the septum and/or as body feed in the liquid. As precoat, filter aid can be applied as a thin layer over the filter before the suspension is pumped to the apparatus. A precoat prevents fine suspension particles from becoming so entangled in the filter medium that its resistance becomes excessive.
