10 KW High Rate Settlement Machine Thickener Equipment Slurry Treatment

Product Description:

High rate thickener units are provided in sizes ranging from 5' to 250' in diameter, and can accommodate drive head torques of up to 4 million foot pounds. They are available in shaft or cage driven models.

Thickeners are a type of industrial liquid-solid separation equipment used for recovering immediately reusable process water or separating waste solids from leach liquor. This type of thickener features a fabricated sag steel floor on larger diameter tanks and provides open access under the tank for more efficient pumping of the underflow.

Working Principle

Working Principle

Thickeners are comprised of a tank, feed pipe feedwell, rake (and pickets, depending on the thickener style), a bridge containing the rake drive mechanism, and a chemical dosing system.

The slurry feed enters the thickener from a de-aeration tank and into the feedwell. Chemicals are added to the feed to aid in rapid settling of the solid particles in the slurry. These chemicals can be flocculants or coagulants, depending on the application. They attract the fine solids in the slurry to form larger, heavier particles that sink to the bottom of the tank.

As the flocculated solids settle to the bottom of the tank, the rotating rake mechanism assists with moving them toward the discharge cone in the center. The thickened solids are then discharged out the bottom of the tank and, depending on the application, sent to waste or further processing.

The solids-free liquid (or liquor) overflows the weir surrounding the top of the tank. Again depending on the application, this clarified liquid is then sent for further processing or reuse as process liquid

Advantage:

Optimised underflow density for solid-liquid separation

Thickeners work on the operating principles of gravity and particle interactions, with solids settling downwards and liquids rising to the top as they separate. Whether you choose a High-Rate Thickener, a Deep Cone Thickener or one of our other solutions, we'll utilise all our process and materials expertise to optimise the underflow to meet your needs and achieve solid-liquid separation at the desired density, clarity and rate.
