Manchester's wastewater treatment systems for vibratory and
tumbling processes are engineered to the requirements of specific
operations. System considerations include the materials tumbled,
liquids (soaps and detergents), abrasives and the water quality
required for discharge or recycling.
For applications using neutral cleaners, Manchester’s
ultrafiltration system is ideal. It produces a clear water
solution that can be discharged or partially recycled. Typical
metal discharge levels are less than 0.05 mg/L as particles
greater than .005 microns in size are rejected.
If acid or alkaline cleaners are used, pH adjustment is required.
Cleaners containing complex or chelating compounds may require
the use of other chemical treatments, as well as pH adjustments,
to remove dissolved metals.
System Description:
Manchester Corporation’s tumbling and vibratory wastewater
treatment systems use cross-flow filtration to minimize blinding
of the ultrafiltration membranes. Back pulsing is not required,
because the membrane design resists fouling. Cross-flow filtration
is achieved by circulating the tumbling liquid through a series
of porous tubes. The filtrate "weeps" through the
wall while the velocity in the tubes prevents solids from
building up on the tube surface. Effluent can be discharged
to the drain or recycled back to process.
Manchester systems arrive skid-mounted and prepackaged for
ease of installation and startup.
