What dust collector is used for soda ash dust in the production of sodium silicate?
Thread Content
When producing sodium silicate by dry method, quartz sand and soda ash are required. Currently, the materials are added manually, and the dust generated from soda ash affects the working environment; therefore, a dust removal system is needed. I’m not sure what type of dust removal system to use. If bag filters are to be employed, what kind of filter media should be used? The mixing material needs to be transported to the feed bin in front of the kiln using belts and conveyors; dust removal is also required during this process. I would like to ask if anyone has experience with dust removal in sodium silicate factories. Thank you very much, and I look forward to a reply as soon as possible!
For dust removal during the mixing and conveying process, it is recommended to use a belt cover combined with an exhaust fan; additionally, a water mist dust collector can be installed at the outlet of the exhaust fan for washing.
Bag filters can be tried, but it’s difficult to achieve ideal results with them
Has anyone else who is an expert used it? Please let me know if you know!
A bag filter is used, with membrane-coated polyester needle-punched felt as the filtering material.
Bag filter, with acrylic filter bags. We have made soda ash.
Thank you all for your answers. Brother on the sixth floor, what kind of dust removal method is used for this type of dust collector? What should the filtration air velocity be? There are currently two production lines, two mixers, and two conveyor belts leading to the hoists. It is necessary to install dust collection points at the material discharge areas and on the conveyor belts. I need to know how to arrange the dust collectors and the piping system, as well as what size of dust collector will be sufficient. Each line discharges material 56 times per day, over a 12-hour working period; the modulus ranges from 2 to 3.1, with a daily production volume of around 250 tons. I would appreciate some guidance from those with experience in this area.
