Introduction
The Rotary Drum Thickener (RDT) is a revolutionary new thickeners specifically designed for bringing about high end results for more effective liquids and sewage thickening processes. It combines a smart engineering process with a unique concept to create a state of the art equipment that is suitable for variety of applications from dewatering, oil separation to sugar and starch extractions. Due to its smart design and efficient operation, this revolutionary thickener maximizes efficiency and throughput of the liquids and sewage treatment process.
Working Principle
The Rotary Drum Thickener works by combining the natural effects of gravity and centrifugal forces. This creates a situation where flocculation of suspended particles is strengthened and they can settle down faster in a thickening medium. The stirring action of the rotating drum minimizes formation of flocs, while simultaneously increasing shear rates, resulting in faster flocculations and higher yields. The operation of the machine is governed by the programmed controller system, which is capable of adjusting the speed of the rotating drum, flocculation time and other parameters. The controller can also process the dewatered liquid output of the machine.
Advantages
The Rotary Drum Thickener offers several advantages over other thickeners. It requires less area in comparison to traditional thickeners due to its small footprint, making it more efficient and also reducing the cost of installation. It simplifies operation and is more reliable than regular thickeners, thereby minimizing the risk of downtime. The Rotary Drum Thickener also offers improved flocculation, resulting in a higher yield of quality liquid output. Furthermore, its flocculation time is much shorter than those of conventional thickeners and the process can be adjusted according to the requirements of the application.
Uses
The Rotary Drum Thickener is used in a variety of industries, such as water and wastewater treatment plants, oil and gas processing, food and beverage industry, animal feed production and sugar and starch extraction plants. It is also used in industrial applications like pH measurement, reverse osmosis, filtration and coagulation systems.
Conclusion
The Rotary Drum Thickener is a revolutionary thickener designed to provide high end results in liquid and sewage thickening processes. It reduces the cost of installation due to its compact size, and offers quicker flocculation and higher yields of quality liquid output. It is used in a wide array of industries and applications, and provides an excellent solution for smoother and more efficient operation.
