Metso Outotec introduces Reactorwell feed systemfor maximizing thickener and clarifier performance.
Metso Outotec is launching the Metso OutotecReactorwellTM – a new generation feedwell – for maximizingthickener and clarifier performance while minimizing flocculant consumption andbringing significant operational cost efficiencies.
The first-class feed system features high solidsretention and mixing efficiency. It eliminates feed short-circuiting and offerslow shear for ideal floccule growth and even discharge symmetry.
The new feed system provides optimum feedconditioning for thickeners and clarifiers. Thanks to its many benefits inaddition to low flocculant usage, the ReactorwellTM is part ofMetso Outotec’s sustainable Planet Positive portfolio.
“The ReactorwellTM enables a bigleap forward in thickener and clarifier performance as it utilizes maximumsettling area due to its high exit symmetry. It also provides improved overflowclarity as well as higher underflow density. Additionally, the ReactorwellTM allowsbetter thickener operability with an improved response to process changes,”says Brian Berger, Vice President, Thickeners and Clarifiers at MetsoOutotec.
The ReactorwellTM is easy to maintaindue to its intelligent design and modularity. It consistently achieves highunit area throughput and the improved Autodil™ performance minimizes the needfor pumped dilution, leading to lower total cost of ownership
