Design issues of alkali tank
Thread Content
May I ask whether the pipeline for feeding 30% alkaline solution into the tank needs to extend inside the tank, and whether an antifoam screen should be installed at the outlet at the bottom of the tank? ?
There is no need to reach the bottom of the tank, nor is a foam skimmer required. Our company has been using it for ten years now; there has been no blockage at the bottom outlet of the tank, nor any corrosion or leakage in the tank itself. The local winter temperatures are taken into primary consideration; if the temperatures are low, additional heating coils need to be installed inside the tanks, and the pipes must be insulated to prevent them from freezing.
The pipe can be inserted further in; if the filling opening is open, it’s possible to push it in a bit more to prevent splashing. As for the foam breaker, installing it seems like overkill
Don’t alkaline solutions tend to form bubbles easily? Is it good to let bubbles enter the pump?
