Decanter Centrifuges for Wastewater Applications

 Alfa Laval offers a complete range of wastewater decanter for sludge thickening and dewatering – from robust i-DW units to our state-of-the-art ALDEC G3 VecFlow™ systems.

Alfa Laval ALDEC G3 VecFlow™

It is a state-of-the-art decanter for dewatering and thickening applications. It offers an ideal solution for duties where maximum separation performance, lowest possible power consumption, very high capacity and advanced control possibilities are required. ALDEC G3 VecFlow™ features the most advanced technology available on the market, including our unique VecFlow™ feed zone and Slimline conveyor.

ALDEC G3 VecFlow™ is available with capacities from 23 to 230 m3/h.

Benefits

  • Highest performance at the lowest operating cost
  • Extremely effective separation, 2% drier solids compared to standard decanters
  • Lowest power consumption, 30% lower than standard decanters
  • The lowest total cost of ownership
  • Upgradeable
  • PowerTubes, Slimline conveyor, Direct Drive gearbox, and VecFlow™ feed zone
  • Replaceable wear protection tiles
  • Advanced control system
  • Easy to service
  • Available in many materials, including Duplex

Limitations

  • Larger footprint than i-DW

ALDEC G3

The Alfa Laval ALDEC G3 features the same technology as ALDEC G3 VecFlow™, except for the feed zone. ALDEC G3 has a standard feed zone, giving it somewhat lower performance and higher power consumption. It is a good fit for a wide range of applications where high separation performance and low power consumption are required, but where the extra benefits offered by VecFlow™ are not necessary. An Alfa Laval ALDEC G3 can be upgraded to the VecFlow™ design.

ALDEC G3 is available with capacities from 23 to 225 m3/h.

Benefits

  • Ideal for demanding sludges with high solids loading
  • High separation performance, 1% drier solids compared to standard decanters
  • Low power consumption
  • Upgradeable to G3 VecFlow™ PowerTubes, Slimline conveyor and Direct Drive gearbox
  • Replaceable wear protection tiles
  • Advanced control system Easy to service
  • Available in many materials, including Duplex

Limitations

  • Larger footprint than i-DW

Bulker-fit configuration for Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 matches differentiated ballasting/deballasting flows

  Bulk carriers can now benefit from an Alfa Laval PureBallast 3 bulker-fit configuration, which is specifically adapted to their flow needs. The bulker-fit configuration offers savings in footprint, installation, OPEX, and especially CAPEX, yet it retains the high performance, easy operation, and global service coverage PureBallast 3 is known for. A growing number of ship owners are choosing UV ballast water treatment over electrochlorination, even for large ballast water flows. Today’s UV treatment competes easily on footprint and energy consumption, which makes advantages like chemical-free operation, zero corrosion risk, and efficiency at low salinities and temperatures even more attractive. Until now, however, the move towards UV has been less noticeable among bulkers. “Bulkers have a unique ballasting and deballasting profile because they load and unload at significantly different rates,” says Peter Sahlén, Head of Alfa Laval PureBallast. “The PureBallast 3 bulker-fit configurati

How gasketed plate heat exchangers work

Image
In a gasketed plate heat exchanger, the plates are fitted with elastomeric gaskets which seal the channels and direct the fluids into alternate channels. The plate pack is assembled between a frame plate and a pressure plate, and compressed by tightening bolts fitted between these plates. The channel plates and the pressure plate are suspended from an upper carrying bar and located by a lower guiding bar, both of which are fixed to the support column. The physical design of the gasketed plate heat exchanger allows easy cleaning and modification of capacity by the addition or removal of plates.   ·          Liquid/Liquid GPHE   ·          Steam heater GPHE   ·          Liquid/Liquid 2-pass GPHE     Liquid/Liquid GPHE This animation above shows the working principle of an Alfa Laval liquid/liquid 1-pass gasketed plate-and-frame heat exchanger where the fluids run counter-currently through the heat exchanger. The hot liquid (illustrated in red) normally enters through one of
