Flexible Standard and Custom Solutions

The ProMinent Group (Germany) is exhibiting at this year’s IFAT. The slogan "We control it" illustrates that ProMinent develops and manufactures more than "just" metering pumps. At IFAT in Munich from 13 – 17 September 2010, the Heidelberg-based company will be presenting solutions for filtering, disinfection, oxidisation, and measurement and control. At stand 425/526 in Hall A3 the company will be showcasing components, systems and technologies for efficient, environmentally friendly and sustainable treatment of drinking and waste water and flue gas cleaning.

A whole range of drinking and waste water solutions will be on show at IFAT 2010, which is taking place at Munich’s exhibition centre from 13 – 17 September 2010. Highlights include metering stations and water treatment processes with the superordinate multi-channel measuring and control system Disinfection Controller, polymer preparation stations, big bag emptying stations, multi-screw conveyors, hose pumps with low, medium and high flow rates, and gravity filters for the purification of drinking and waste water.

Water treatment can also be significantly cost-optimised. For example, sludge can be economically dewatered by adding flocculants. Polymer preparation and metering systems from the Ultromat and PolyRex series turn the sludge into a solution that is optimised for the subsequent process. New versions of the Ultromat are fitted with Simatic S7 PLC. This allows the speed of the drives used in the system to be economically controlled by means of frequency converters.

For viscous and abrasive media
ProMinent is adding new hose pumps to its range for low, medium and high flow rates. With a wide spectrum of flow rates from 17 l/h to 25 000 l/h, the key benefits of these hose pumps include low-impact material transport, dry priming and the transport of viscous and abrasive materials.

Dust-free
The emptying and metering station is especially suitable for waste water management, where it is used for sludge dewatering and the incineration of sewage sludge for energy production. In this scenario the big bag emptying station, fitted with a metering device, can be used to transport lime pneumatically and without dust for flue gas cleaning.

Gravity filters
The product range now includes gravity filters that reduce the volume of solids and suspended matter in the water to 5 - 10 mg/l. The gravity filters are available in different versions for handling throughputs of up to 1200 m3/h.
