APPLICATION
In the hydrometallurgy industry, there is increasing need to produce metals with higher purity (99.99% and greater) in order to develop special metal alloys for the electronics and aeronautical industries.
The implementation of ROUSSELET ROBATEL centrifugal extractors in metal purification processes through liquid-liquid extraction, allows for the highest quality standards.
EQUIPMENT RANGE
- Monostage centrifugal extractors Model BXP flow rates 2 liters/hr to 80 m3/hr
- Multistage centrifugal extractors Model LX, flow rates 25 liters/hr to 8 m3/hr
- Mixer-settlers Model MD, flow rates 2 liters/hr to 400 liters/hr
With the following advantages :
- Low liquid hold-up relative to throughput (safe, economical)
- Due to the high G-forces generated by the rotating bowl in a centrifugal extractor, separation is quick and efficient, and can treat liquids with low density differences (Δρ = 0.05)
- Compact installation
- Vaportight, capable of inert gas blanketing
