Hello All,
Problem: My fan is being eaten alive.
Fan Description: 5' Diameter Radial Blades, 465fps tip speed, carbon steel blades
Process Description: The fan is downstream of a wet scrubbing system, complete with mist a multistage mist eliminator (chevrons and mesh). The mist eliminator...
Hello all,
I am looking for a way to calculate the amount of condensation formed in the air discharge stack. There will be two air streams exiting the stack:
1) 20,000 ACFM, 137F, Saturated, 3' Diameter Duct
2) 40,000 ACFM, 162F, 50% RH, 3.5' Diameter Duct
For calculation purposes I want to...
Hello,
For an upcoming process mixer we are looking to line the vessel with a fluoropoymer. The problem is that due to heat of reaction, the operating temperature will be about 300F. Most people have declined to quote, stating that although the material can take the heat, there is problems with...
Hello,
For an upcoming tank design I would like to use a guided wave radar as the level transmitter. The radar probe is to be 16mm, 108" long, and made of 316SS. I need to determine whether this will be sturdy enough to withstand turbence created by the agitator. The tank is 108" diameter, the...
Hello All,
I am currently trying to come up with options for extracting the ammonium sulfate from a bi-product stream. Although it is possible to sell A.S. liquor, I would rather not have to worry about its demand. Basically, any information would be helpful, but I am specifically interested in...
Hello, I have been looking into substituting duplex stainless for our 300 Series applications. From what I have read it seems like duplex has similar if not better overall corrosion resistance than 300 Series and I was hoping that it would be cheaper due to its lower nickel content. Particularly...
Hello all,
Currently I have been researching suitable materials from which to construct a reactor. The reaction involves finely ground phosphate rock (150mesh) and 80% H2SO4 which is further diluted at the mixer. Obviously this is going to be a hot (150C design temp) and nasty reaction. In the...
