APPLICATION 1: Manufacturers of powdered detergents need to eliminate oversize granules, which detract from eye appeal of the product and retard the rate at which they will dissolve. Since the detergent is bone dry at time of scalping, dust and screen capacity are a problem with other types of sieving devices. Sweco Separators can handle the capacities that detergent manufactures require, while holding oversize material to a manageable level. The use of metal covers and flexible spout connectors also eliminate the dust.
APPLICATION 2: Manufacturers of chemical fertilizers require a process to screen a compound called Urea at very high capacities. By doing so in a conventional manner, several round separators or a rectangular separator are necessary to handle the required capacity. Sweco is able to install into these processes the Sweco POD Separator for replacement of these round or rectangular machines. By using this innovation, the manufacturers receive a high capacity machine with a compact, dust tight design. The benefits of such a system is the reduction of required floor space, reduced noise levels (because the system is fully enclosed), increased efficiency (because of lower bed depth), and the minimization of transmitted vibration to the mounting structure (because of the Sweco Separator's utilization of spring systems) allowing for lower installation costs. All of this is in a design which does not yield a reduction in the required capacity level.
APPLICATION 3: Processors of Potassium Iodide require a sizing process that will allow them to effectively market their product to various industries determined by the particle size of the material. After an extensive extraction process to get to the pure white potassium iodide, the material is passed through a pulverizer and sent to a Sweco Separator where three separations occur. The largest of the cuts is marketed to the chemical industry, the middle cut to the pharmaceutical manufacturers, and, finally, the smallest cut to the cattle feed mineral supplement producers.
These are just a few among thousands of examples for this industry of how Sweco was able to solve customers' processing problems with our separation equipment and vast experience. Let us help you solve your separation problems. Contact a Sweco professional today. |
