I have an issue with foam pigs being torn up in an 8" line. I have sourced a solid multiple cup poly pig to use as a temporary solution. It is an 8" pig, length = 16". It has a minimum bend radius of 12". I am concerned whether this pig will traverse a 45degree bend with internal diameter of...

Thanks for the help. I believe I am going with the belt driven motor. Che51

Hey, I am purchasing a particle-size reducer and need to decide the type of drive I want to use. The piece of equipment comes standard with a belt drive. I know belt drives are usually cheaper but usually have lower performance. Are there any other advantages/disadvantages? Such as...

Hello, I am working on a warehouse improvement project and one of the major jobs is to install some dock locks/truck restraints. There are so many different designs to choose from. Does anyone have any experience installing dock locks or know of the best designs/suppliers. I would like a...

Thanks Delta, I was already planning to filter for TSS and the other parameters you mentioned are fairly low. I just wasnt sure if the addition of alot more bugs would be a big concern. Hopefully I'll find somewhere to use this lagoon water soon. I cant remember if you were involved in one...

I am currently working on a project to reuse the stormwater collected in a lagoon onsite. My first idea was to reuse it as tote-cleaning water but many water quality & operations issues have come up. Since the cooling tower water is treated already for bugs could the answer to my problem be...

I have recently (actually today) come up with another idea on how to reuse the lagoon water: Use it as cooling tower makeup. I have confirmed the capacities and they are similar and currently the cooling tower water is already treated for bugs. Does this seem like a good idea?

BRT, Are your $ figures US or Canadian?

Thanks BRT, those numbers are very helpful. Just want to make sure that the numbers are based on 130USGPM that runs continously. If not how many USG do you treat per month? CHE51

Okay pleckner here's a more detailed explanation. Basically we have a onsite lagoon (just storm water) we want to recycle back into the plant. The only place in the plant that has the capacity for this water is the tote cleaning area. Currently we use city water which we heat in a pick heater...

We are using the lagoon water on product tote cleaning. There are some products that if we were to add to a bug contaminated tote they would provide the right environment for these bugs to grow and therefore contaminate the product....the main question I have is if raising the temperature of the...

Are there any concerns/tips you have on designing such a baffled tank?.....it appears to be pretty straightforward....just to confirm the baffles would be in the vertical position so the previous stage(consists of 2 baffles) will overflow in the following stage and the baffles heights would...

Thanks for the tip...Do you have any suggestions/comments on the tank design?

Hello, I have a hot water recycling problem. I want to recycle water from our lagoon into a hot water tank that is used for our tote cleaning processes. In order to kill the 'bugs' in the water I have been told by our microbio engineer that at 85C (hot water temp used today) we would need to...

It's a possibility but I think sodium hypochlorate would affect at least one of our products. The operators have cases where they hot water rinse and some when they cold water rinse. If they always cold water rinsed this wouldnt be a big problem. Do you know approximately how much sodium...

Hello, Onsite we have a lagoon and we are trying to find a way of recycling it back into the plant. Basically we have decided that it would be best to recycle back to our tote cleaning area. Due to operating requirements we have to provide hot water that can be used as a wash and a rinse...

Waterexpert and Vintage, Vintage you got it so far. Our water is not that clean. We produce wastewater treatment chemicals (including polymers and several other liquid flocculants/coagulants). I have since discovered some old info on effluent testing performed at our plant and depending on...

As far as the cooling water it is a very old plant. I know this is not allowed now when designing new plants. pH adjustment is the only treatment. When the effluent has been tested by the regional sewer representatives it is usually OK but this once through cooling water could make a big...

I am working on improving my plant's effluent treatment system. Currently we only control the pH before discharging. I am currently working on a new chiller project that will remove the addition of once thru cooling water to my effluent. First I am performing a study on the effluent minus the...
