As discussed above, it is necessary to feed peripherally driven machines in the center of the tank through a rising feed pipe from underneath the tank. In treatment works that rely on gravity flow through the works this is the best way of conserving head. It does however require a level of excavation and concrete to bury the incoming feed pipe.

2020/10/12. International technology Group ANDRITZ has developed the EvoLute NT dilution system, a new solution for diluting thickener feed that uses the overflow liquid from the thickener to dilute incoming slurries or suspensions to the optimum solid-liquid ratio. This new, patented system is designed for flow rates between 600 and 9,000 m 3 /h.

As shown in Fig. 1, the thickener is a 22 m diameter deep cone shaped tank and its height is 16 m. In the center upper side of the tank, there is a 3 m diameter, 4 m high feed well. The feed well is attached to the 0.9 m diameter concrete support column in the center of tank. The feed inlet pipe is integrated with the feed well and

by CSIRO and AMIRA P266 thickener projects (privately funded and sponsored by industry and manufacturers) to better understand feedwell performance (Jewell and Fourie, 2015). The ability to capture the solids and generate floccules that have the desired settling rate is very sensitive to throughput, and inlet velocity is a crucial parameter in ...

Vector ® Feed System. Open bottom designed feedwells are inefficient and typically suffer from short circuiting. The incoming feed lacks adequate mixing energy and sufficient contact with the flocculant and dilution water.

A design developed in UK by the WRc ( Warden, 1983), for waterworks sludge thickening applications, consists of a cylindrical tank of water depth 2–3.5 m with a shallow sloping floor (1 in 20). Sludge is introduced at the central feed well and the supernatant overflows a peripheral .

However, the low settling velocity of coal thickener feed slurry (approx 1m/s) offers design flexibility due to factors like low solids density, low feed solids concentration, and particle size. Other key design features include a tangential slurry inlet for energy dissipation without increasing froth, a bottom outlet nozzle below the …

Higher thickener feed flow rate also affected eductor performance, reducing its discharge solid loading by 4 wt.%. Finally, a smart thickener dilution system was proposed to maintain optimum dilution.

The HI-RATE THICKENER feed well height is adjustable to allow for control of the secondary dilution and levelling thereof so that there is even water flow over the total circumference of the feed well. Slurry enters …

The PB-CFD thickener model is used to demonstrate the feedwell performance of a new feedwell design (termed the 'P266E feedwell') against the three common feedwell designs shown in Figure 1: A 4 m open feedwell with a single feed inlet system entering the feedwell tangentially

Table of Contents At start-up, the relatively high level of feed solids, 17-20%, called for in design led to difficulties in achieving the degree of flocculation necessary to meet required settling rates. It was recognized that decreasing feed solids would improve thickener performance while reducing flocculant consumption (Figure 2). This was …

The feed material used in this study consisted of a bituminous pulverised coal, with an ash content of 14.2% and a sizing of 70% by mass less than 0.075mm. A high molecular weight anionic polyacrylamide flocculant was used to flocculate the feed in a mixing vessel prior to sedimentation on a solids basis of50.

Use expressed breast milk, or prepare formula as directed. Add to the bottle, 1 scoop (8 g) per 200 ml of breast milk or formula. Shake vigorously. A fast flow or variable flow teat is recommended unless otherwise advised. Thickened feeds will continue to thicken after preparation. Follow instructions as recommended.
