The document describes three sub-systems for dry handling of polymers and flocculants: 1) A bulk bag handling system that meters powder from large bags into a hopper using a screw feeder. 2) A make down system that mixes and wets the powder in mixing tanks using specialized mixers before injection. 3) A post dilution and pumping system that calculates and injects the exact amounts of wetted polymer and water using progressive cavity or lobe pumps.
Engineered Custom Dry Handling Systems
- 1. 1 Dry Handling Systems for Polymer and Flocculant
- 2. Consists of 3 sub-systems… 2 Bulk Bag Handling System Make Down System Post Dilution or Pumping System
- 4. Bulk Bag Handling System 4 750 kg bag set in place via forklift or hoist & trolley Operator unties bag through access door Proximity switch within hopper alarms for refills VFD controlled screw feeder meters powder
- 5. Bulk Bag Handling System 5 Bag support offers “operator pinch and crush” protection A hopper screen prevents screw feeder damage An exhaust vent is standard on all our glove boxes
- 7. Make Down System 7 Mix tanks are used to receive, mix and age polymer Hayward Gordon or Sharpe mixers utilized % dilution and aging time are fully automated
- 8. Make Down System 8 Powder is sucked into the make down tank WATER MIXING AND WETTING ZONE POWDER Vacuum 80-100 psi water is pumped through the venturi of the wetting head, via booster pump Step 1. Step 2. creating a high pressure zone and a vacuum to suck the powder from the screw feeder (up to 30 ft) right into Make Down Tanks
- 9. Make Down System 9 We wet the powder in the tank, no slippery polymer on your floors We suck the powder into the tank, as opposed to using blowers, no risk of leaks and dust Each molecule passes through the wetting zone, no “fish-eyes” or wasted polymer
- 11. Post Dilution and Pumping 11 Fully automated pump skids calculate exactly how much wetted polymer to inject with exact amounts of post- dilution water Progressive Cavity, Gear, or Lobe Pumps are used to pump the viscous polymer
- 12. Post Dilution and Pumping 12 Pump skids come equipped with drip trays Pumps can be equipped with “dry-run” protection
