Description

Sand washing plant is a high-efficiency equipment for washing sand and sand pulp from organic contaminants.

The scope of application of sand washing plant is:

  • washing and dewatering of sandpulp after horizontal or aerated sand traps;
  • treatment of partially dewatered (dry or wet) sand, e.g. after M-Combi plants;
  • treatment and dewatering of surface runoff water from highway cleaning;
  • separation and dewatering of sand pellets after snowmelt plants;
  • treatment and dewatering of sand pulp from hydraulic transport systems of food and processing industry enterprises.

FINAL PRODUCT - washed and dewatered sand, washing water and periodically drained liquid layer of organic contaminants.


The efficiency, reliability and ease of use of the Ekoton sand washing units:

  • Washing device for uniform distribution of water over the area of the working chamber to wash the sand from organic matter.
  • Application of reinforced auger spirals.
  • Compact modular design, which is especially important when placing the equipment in existing buildings and structures.
  • Low-speed conveyor, which ensures efficient dewatering of the outgoing sand and extends the service life of the equipment.
  • Ability to handle sand pulse and partially dewatered sand.
  • To ensure maximum efficiency of sand washing and separation, the calculation of vessel and agitator geometry is made using computer modeling systems of hydraulic flows.
  • Adjustable supports to compensate for unevenness of the surface provided for installation of the equipment;
  • Easy mounting and dismounting of the equipment, conveniently located covers for inspection of the internal parts of the sand trap;
  • Accessibility of all components for maintenance;
  • No bearings in the underwater part for easy maintenance;
  • Closed design of the sand trap minimizes the spread of unpleasant odors and gases;
  • Availability of alarms for normal operation of the equipment and emergency situations;
  • Synchronization with other equipment of the complex, convenient and intuitive setting of operation modes from the operator's panel;
  • Electrical protection against drive overload;
  • Electrical protection against voltage surges;
  • Flange for connection of bypass pipe (optional);
  • Outdoor version (optional).

Durability of Ekoton sand washing plants:

  • Sand washing units are made of corrosion resistant steel AISI 304 or AISI 316.
  • The screw mechanism uses wear-resistant guides made of Hardox steel, a material with high resistance to abrasive abrasion. As a rule, it is used for products and structures subject to wear, which significantly extends the service life of products.
  • The axial screw conveyor is made of high-strength steel.
  • Anticorrosion treatment in the form of volume etching and passivation by special means.
  • Application of modern production technologies for connection of body parts and mechanisms.

Optional:

  • Execution of the body of the sand washing plant from AISI 316.
  • Manufacturing of conveyor spiral in AISI 304 or AISI 316.
  • Sealed connection to the conveyor.
  • Non-standard automation options.

Technical characteristics of sand washing plants



Sand washing plants are made of corrosion-resistant steel and polymeric materials. The size of the equipment is selected depending on the required throughput capacity and properties of the slurry to be processed. The data for selection of the equipment are specified by the customer or the project organization in the questionnaire.

Question-answer

Are there any options for equipment protection in case of operation in unfavorable climatic or other conditions?

We can offer a higher degree of protection for electrical equipment - above IP55. It is possible to design the equipment in explosion-proof version.

Is it possible to use the equipment outside an existing or specially prepared room?

As an option, sand washing plants can be manufactured in an outdoor version.
