An apparatus and method for removing liquid from liquid bearing material are provided, the apparatus comprising a pair of electrode units having portions thereof disposed adjacent each other and defining an inlet to the adjacent portions and an outlet from the adjacent portions, structure for feeding the liquid bearing material into the inlet, structure for moving the liquid bearing material from the inlet to the outlet so that sections of the material serially move from the inlet to the outlet while being disposed between the adjacent portions, structure for vibrating the liquid bearing material between the adjacent portions of the electrode units as the material is moving from the inlet to the outlet whereby a vibratory field arrangement is applied to the material, and structure for creating a voltage between the pair of electrode units so as to create an electrostatic field arrangement between the adjacent portions of the pair of electrode units for acting through the material that is disposed therebetween to remove liquid from that material, the structure for vibrating the liquid bearing material having structure for simultaneously providing different vibratory field actions to different sections of the material that are serially disposed between the inlet and the outlet so that different intensities of the vibratory field arrangement serially act on each section of the material as each section of the material moves from the inlet to the outlet, the structure for vibrating the liquid bearing material comprising at least one of the electrode units.
