Bleaching Earth Conveying System
Bleaching Earth Conveying System
DVC’s Bleaching Earth Conveying system transfers fresh activated bleaching clay from storage to bleaching earth hoppers mounted on a slurry mixer/bleaching reactor.
The fresh activated clay is in powder form with a bulk density of 0.7 to 0.8 kg/lit. It is abrasive and prone to dusting when exposed to the atmosphere. To avoid manual handling, which leads to a dusty environment as well as handling losses and cost, this system is essential to incorporate in the oil bleaching section.
Bleaching earth / Activated Earth is lifted from the Dump Hopper to the storage tank with the help of a centrifugal blower fan. This earth is passed through a Bag Filter and collected in the Bleaching Earth storage tank. The measured quantity of Bleaching Earth is then dosed from the tank to the Bleacher with the help of a sequential timer or PLC-controlled program.
Advantages of DVC Pneumatic Bleaching Earth Conveying System:
It ensures clean & dust free transfer.
Low Noise and vibrations.
Low Operation & Maintenance cost due to application of centrifugal blower in place of roots blower.
