Neutralization
requires a flexible solution for reliable performance. One
size does not fit all when working with industrial processes. For
example, it may be necessary to combine thermal plastics with metals to
meet temperature extremes or chemical compatibility with the waste
stream. In this case the pH was high and significant solvents were
present that precluded PP, PE or PVC. Such application specific custom
solutions are a specialty of Wastech engineer, who are also process
experts.
Shown
above is an example of a two-stage, 20 gpm, OMEGA
neutralization system with stainless steel piping,
sealed metal tank with industrial LIGHTNIN mixers, 110% secondary
containment, Rosemount pH probes, and Burkert ultrasonic level
transmitters. Integrated into the design is a duplex pump lift station
with cast iron vertical centrifugal pumps mounted on the final
monitoring tank. Two control panels were included, one shown with
Rosemount pH analyzers and one (not shown) with ABB VFD drives and
Profibus communication.
The
acid day tank is fitted with an ultrasonic transmitter mounted on
flanged pipe extension with dual metering pumps with splash-guard
tubing. The chemical day tank is double contained on a reinforced PP
platform with 3/4” PP containment, with brackets for floor
mounting and forklift access.
