Deaerator System
A Deaerator is a device that removes dissolved gases from semi-liquids, liquids. Deaerators are commonly used to remove oxygen, trapped air bubbles & dissolved gases in grease & jelly product. Trapped air bubbles & gases in grease will cause serious damage in quality & life of grease. Deaerator is used in Grease Manufacturing Plant.
Application
Greases, Emulsions, Inks and paints, Pharmaceutical formulations, Construction Chemicals, Paper and Textile Chemicals, Dyestuff and Pigment Emulsions, and many more materials of similar consistency.
Operation
During operation, the chamber is under high vacuum and the disc is rotating. Drawn in by the vacuum, the aerated material passes through the feed assembly and the Spreader Ring creates a thin film of material on the disc’s interior surface. The rotation of the Disc centrifuges the thin film of material across its interior surface while the vacuum draws off the entrapped air or gas. The de-aerated material is pumped up the Scoop Tube assembly from within inside edge of the Disc and leaves the chamber. The air (or gas) removed from the material exits the system through the vacuum pumps discharge or exhaust. The Chamber does not fill the material stays within the Disc.
DEAERATOR BENEFITS
- Heat sensitive and shear sensitive products can be processed.
- The design allows all of the processed material to be exposed in a thin film to high vacuum.
- Continuous operation (no timed cycle) and can be installed in-line or used for batch processing.
- Few spare parts subject to wear and easy access to interior parts for inspection and cleaning.
- Minimal product loss during operation
- On line milling, emulsifying homogenous mixing and de-aeration of product.
- Smooth texture and glossy appearance of product.
- Chemically stable product.
- Increased shelf life.
- Denser product resulting in precise packing.
- Additional pumps for feed and discharge are not necessary for most installations. The material can be discharged from the vacuum chamber by operating design.
- Preventing reactions such as oxidation and tendency of grease and oil to run rancid.
- Giving your products a smooth texture and attractive gloss.
- Increasing specific weight reduces packing volume and allows smooth
operation of filling equipment providing uniform filling volume.
- In line operation reduces storage capacity requirement, freeing valuable floor space.
- Usable even on delicate emulsions by imparting minimal temperature and shear action to your product.
- This system can be handled in a wide range of product from a viscouspaste to the finestemulsion.
- Removal of entrapped air, foam, or gas from liquids under high vacuum.
- Efficient mixing, blending, homogenization, dispersion, emulsification as a simultaneous secondary benefit.
