Use of industrial pumps, blowers, valves and heat exchangers in treatment plants
Wastewater treatment plants play a critical role in removing pollutants from water that may harm the environment and human health. The right selection of equipment used in these facilities; Efficiency is of great importance in terms of energy saving and operating continuity. Kenfle Industry offers solutions to the treatment sector in engineering solutions, blowers, valves and heat exchangers.
Main Processes Used in Treatment Plants
1. PHYSICAL TREATMENT
It is the first stage of the treatment process and includes the removal of solids and suspended solids in water.
– Grid and sieves: holding solid parts.
– Sand and oil holders: separation of heavy particles and oils.
– Precipitation Pools (Pre-settling): Separation of suspended solids by precipitation.
At this stage, submersible pumps and check valves usually come into play.
2. CHEMICAL TREATMENT
It covers the removal of dissolved pollutants in wastewater by chemical reactions.
– Coagulation-Folculation: Combining particles with chemical precipitators.
– pH regulation: neutralization of acidic or basic waters.
– Heavy metal removal: It is made with chemical precipitation or ion exchangers.
At this stage, dosing pumps, chemical resistant air diaphragm pumps and PVC/PVDF valves are used.
3. Biological Treatment
It allows organic pollutants to be broken down through microorganisms.
– Activated sludge process: Degrading organics by microorganisms in ventilation pools.
– Drip filters and biofilm reactors: removal of organic load with a layer of biofilm.
– nitrification / denitrification: removal of nitrogen compounds.
Here, blower systems (roots and turbo blower) play a critical role in ventilation. In addition, plate heat exchangers provide energy recovery in biogas production.
4. ADVANCED TREATMENT
It is applied for more precise cleaning after standard treatment.
– Filtration (sand filter, membrane systems)
– Activated carbon adsorption
– Reverse Osmosis (RO)
– UV and ozone disinfection
In these stages, high pressure pumps, automated valves and heat exchangers come into play.
5. Mud treatment and disposal
The sludge formed as a result of the treatment must be processed.
– Condensation (Thickening)
– Dewatering (dewatering – filter press, belt press)
– Mud drying and burning
– Biogas Production
Here, peristaltic pumps (for dense mud), exchangers (for mud drying), blowers (for biogas systems), valves (for mud removal) are used.
Pump use in treatment processes
1. Wastewater Transfer
– Mono pumps (screwed eccentric): It is the most preferred pump for the safe transfer of high viscosity sludge, fibrous and solid wastes.
– Air diaphragm pumps: It is the ideal solution for pressing chemical additives and aggressive fluids.
2. Chemical dosing and neutralization
– Dosing Pumps: It ensures that chemicals such as pH adjuster, coagulant, polyelectrolyte are delivered to the system in a precise and controlled manner.
– Air diaphragm pumps: Thanks to the chemical resistant body options, it works safely in aggressive chemical transfer.
3. Water circulation and filtration
– Centrifugal pumps: Widely used in clean water circulation throughout the facility, nutrition of filtration units and general processes.
– Plate Heat Exchangers: It ensures that the water temperature is kept at the desired values.
4. Mud dewatering and disposal
– Mono pumps: It plays a critical role in the transfer of sludge to condensation tanks before dewatering.
– Dosing pumps: It is used in the correct dosing of polymers.
Blower Usage
– Roots blowers: In providing oxygen to microorganisms in ventilation tanks.
– Centrifugal blowers: In high flow air feeds.
Valves and heat exchangers
– PVC, PP, PVDF valves: in chemical lines.
– Stainless steel valves: in high pressure water and mud lines.
– Plate and tubular exchangers: Controlling water temperature.
