A new, easy-to-install filter system
This weighing and feeding specialist has extended its range of equipment with the introduction of the MCF filter system, which is suitable for applications in the animal feed, processed foods, chemicals, plastics and heavy industries. The system features a circular…
This mercury removal powder contains no carbon
Amended Silicates is the name of powder designed for removing mercury from the fluegas of coal-fired power plants. The reagent, which is fully compatible with most sorbent-injection systems, provides the benefit of protecting flyash for use in concrete products. In…
Extend air-filtration lifetimes with these filters
The Tri-Flow MERV 16 (minimum efficiency reporting value) filter lifetimes are three to five times longer than that of conventional bag or cartridge-type filters. In addition, the active filtration area is two to three times greater, and the filter maintains…
Protect temperature-sensitive products with this dryer
With the ability to lower evaporation temperatures of liquids, the Rota-Cone Vacuum Dryer improves heat and mass transfer, and protects temperature-sensitive products. The vacuum dryers are an effective and economical solution for many solids-drying applications. The Rota-Cone features a clean…
Use this filter system to remove fines
This company’s candle-filter technology can be used for removing catalyst and other fines from liquids. The filter systems, which can include candle filters, carbon absorption and polishing filters, as well as pressure-plate filters, result in 0.5 µm clarity in recirculation…
Lengthen filtration productivity with this add-on unit
The Double Back Wash Filter enhances productivity by making maintenance easier and prolonging the availability of the company’s Larox CC filter. This upgrade involves replacing the old filter with two individual filters in the back wash water line. Instead of…
Determining Packing Height With Accuracy
Equilibrium stage simulations are the nearly universal process design tool for mass transfer columns that contact vapor and liquid in countercurrent flow. Whether the service is absorption, stripping, distillation, fractionation, quench or evaporation, equilibrium stage models make mass and heat…
This RF system speeds filter-cake drying with less energy
Macrowave is a new drying system that uses radiofrequency (RF) energy to uniformly heat cake material and rapidly remove water without overheating. The system operates at a frequency of 40.68 MHz and features volumetric heating that provides instantaneous and uniform…
Clarifying Liquid Filtration
There are various reasons that make filtering necessary in processes. The raw materials might have impurities that require removal at the start of the process. After the initial mixing to produce the process slurry, the mother liquor could have…
This vacuum filter has a swing-out base and side discharge
The Simplefilter consists of a heated insulated vessel, with a filtration media that is attached to a heated swing-out base and a side-discharge hatch. The design makes drying efficient and removal of the product less complicated. High containment discharge is…
