Effluent Solid Filteration Plant

The Effluent Solid Filteration Plant (ESF) is established to handle and

utilize solid waste contents of the effluent from chemical unit (Soda
ash Plant).

ESF Plant consists of a high compression thickener, (HCT) high rate

thickener, (HRT) Larox pressure filter, 7-bar compressor, and 16 bar
compressor, several storage tanks and centrifugal pumps. The main
objective of the ESF Plant is to separate suspended solids particles
in a cake form and to remove salts from it.

Effluent from generated in Soda Ash Plant is pumped tangentially into

the HCT. In HCT, the slurry is flocculated inside the feed well and
then injected below the surface of a deep fluidized pulp bed. The
pulp bed surface forms a well-defined interface with the liquid above
it. Solid particles are trapped in the bed whilst clear liquid rises
towards the surface where it is removed by the overflow launder and
disposed in the drain. The trapped solid particles are removed as
well as recirculated with incoming effluent from the tank by an
underflow pump(P-8031 & P-8032)

HCT underflow is pumped into the HRT. HCT underflow contains

very high chloride content. Therefore, seawater is mixed with the
HCT underflow. In HRT, slurry is repulped and flocculated inside the
feedwell and then injected below the surface of a deep fluidized pulp
bed. The flocculent at the required concentration is injected into the
feedwell to enhance the flocculation. The pulp bed surface forms a
well-defined interface with liquid above it. Solid particles are trapped
in the bed whilst clear liquid rises towards the surface where it is
removed by the overflow launder. The trapped solid particles are
removed from the tank (D-808) by the under flow pump (P-8051 & P-
8052) Sea water is added in such a way that the chloride content in
the HRT underflow reduces to less than 50 gpl. Flocculent is added
in such a way to maintain the concentration of solid particles more
than 15% (by wt.).

Underflow slurry from HRT is carbonated in a carbonator(D-814 & D-

815) by the exit gas from kiln carbonated slurry is then stored in a
tank(D-818 & D-819) and it is pumped in the filter (2 Nos. i.e. PF-144

& PF-38)which run in cycle and controlled by PLC supplied by Larox

Inc. Finland.
A carbonation system consists of motorized divertor,Ventury
Scrubber, Saturator, Lobe Blower, Sea Water Spray System &
Carbonation Tanks.

Kiln exist gas has high temp of upto 160 deg C cooled in Venturi
Scrubber with sea water spray by nozzles in co-current pattern. The
exist gas of Venturi contains mist paricles which is removed in
saturator with sea water spray by nozzles in counter current manner.

The exist gas of saturator sucked by lobe blower. Discharged gas of

Blower enters into carbonator tower (D-815) from bottom
simultaneously slurry enters into tank and thus with help of bubbling
formation following reaction takes place.

CaO + CO2 -------------- CaCO3

The slurry overflowed from D-815 enters into other tower D-814. In
this tower remaining CaO converted into CaCO2. Slurry overflowing
from D-814 stored into D-818 & D819 tanks.

In addition to this it also consists of Raw water pump which generates

pressure of about 7 kg. This Raw water is used for cake washing,
cloth washing, feed manifold drain in filter operation in addition to this
it also supplies raw water to sealing of various pumps & to Drier
Crusher water spray system.

Important Notes about ESF Plant:

Before starting effluent from Malara from long stoppage check

following.

 Both filters must be ready.

 Effluent delivery line valve must be in open condition.
 HCT & HRT thickener underflow pumps & all other pumps must
be ready condition.
 7 Bar Compressor & 20 Bar Compressor must be ready.
 Sea water pump also must be ready.

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

 Both thickeners must be full of sea water & raker arm should be
operational.
 Recirculation in both thickeners underflow must be started.

After certain time of starting of effluent, solid builds up in HCT.

This can be seen by increase in three parameters.

 HCT underflow bed mass transmitter.(Range 42 to 45 )

 HCT thickener torque.
 HCT raker arm motor load.

Transfer HCT Underflow to HRT. Solid concentration in HRT

underflow increases after certain time can similarly be revealed as in
HCT as mentioned above three parameters.

Observe carefully above three parameters of both thickeners. If it

increase beyond limit. It means that solid builds up in thickener is
very high. There is facility of lifting up raker arm of thickener manually
and also in auto mode. Simultaneously ask malara operator to
reduce/stop effluent flow. After lifting raker arm observe torque,motor
load & Bed mass if it comes down after some times then push down
raker arm gradually by manual mode or auto mode.

If effluent is stopped in any case flush whole effluent line with sea
water for minimum half hour.

Sea Water in HRT needs to be optimized. It must be mixed with ratio

of 1:1 with HCT underflow to control CaSO 4 in wet cake. MgSO4 in
sea water reacts with CaCl2 of HCT underflow (Effluent) to form
CaSO4 which is in solid form presents in wet cake. The percentage of
CaSO4 in wet cake should be as low as possible because presence
of CaSO4 in kiln feed cause jamming in riser ducts in kiln.

Principle Of Pressure filteration:

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

1. Filtration:

When the filter plate pack has been closed, slurry is pumped into
the filter and fed simultaneously into each filter chamber through
the feed distribution pipes. The filtrate flows through the cloth into
the filtrate collection area, then out through the discharge pipe.
The filtered material is collected on the cloth surface and it forms
the filter cake.

2. Pressing 1

Pressurized air is led in behind the rubber diaphragm. The

diaphragm presses the cake against the cloth surface, thus
pressing the filtrate from the cake through the cloth.

3. Washing (optional)

Wash liquid is pumped into the filter chambers in the same way as
the slurry. As the water fills the filtration chamber, the diaphragm is
lifted up and air is forced out from the upper side of the diaphragm.
The wash liquid flows into the discharge pipes after passing
through the filter cake and the cloth.

4. Pressing 2 (optional)

The wash liquid remaining in the chamber after the washing stage
is pressed out of the cake as in stage 2 above.

5. Air drying

Final drying of the cake is accomplished with compressed air. The

air which enters through the distribution pipe fills the filter chamber
and raises the diaphragm and forces the pressure air above the
diaphragm out of the filter. The air flow through the cake reduces
its moisture content to the optimum and at the same times empties
the filtrate chamber.

6. Discharge

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

When air drying has been completed, the plate pack is opened
and the cloth moving mechanism started. The filter cake on the
cloth is discharged from both sides of the filter.

The four stage second program does not include washing and
second pressing stages.

Construction and Operation of filter

In the Larox PF filter, the filter plates lie horizontally between two
pressing plates: the top and bottom pressing plate. The plate pack is
closed during filtration. The dry solid cakes formed during the filtration
process are discharged while the plate pack is open.

The plate pack is opened and closed by hydraulic cylinders.

The endless filter cloth zigzags between the filter plates, which
results in filtered cake being formed on either side of the cloth. While
the filtrate squeezes through the cloth it absorbs and removes solid
matter particles remaining in the cloth from preceding filtration cycles.

The cloth transports the cakes off from the filter and at the same time
the cloth is cleaned and both sides by high pressure water sprays.
The cloth drive unit is driven by a hydraulic motor, which actuates the
cloth drive rollers. The tension of the filter cloth is maintained
constant by a cloth tensioning device. The cloth tensioning device
does not operate when the plate pack is closed.

The slurry is fed into the filter chambers through a distributor pipe
located on the feed side. Also the wash liquid and drying air enter the
same way. The distribution pipe is emptied through a drain valve.

The automatic operation of the filter is controlled by a control panel,

which includes a display and push buttons.

The automatically driven actuators work hydraulically except pressing

air valves which have pneumatic actuators.

Plate

The filter plate consists of three main parts (1) filtrate chamber(2)
Base Plate and (3) Frame.

Filtrate Chamber

The Filtrate chamber collects the filtrate and leads it out through the
collectors attached to the corners of the chamber.

Grid

The grid plates support the cloth and form outlet channels for the
filtrate.

Base Plate

The base plate is the frame part to which all parts of the filter plate
are attached. The pressing air channel is led through the base plate.
The base plate and diaphragm form the pressing air chamber.

Diaphragm

The rubber diaphragm acts as a pressing element which by means of

pressed air presses the cake against the filter cloth and grid so that
liquid is removed from the cake through the filter cloth into the filtrate
chamber.

The maximum diaphragm pressure is 16 bar. As far as the durability

of the diaphragm is concerned, it is much more recommendable to
start with a pressure of 8 bar and then observe how the pressure
changes effect the pressing time and residual moisture.

In temperatures above 60 deg C, a strong ageing phenomenon

affects the rubber. In case the temperature of the slurry to be filtered
is higher, observe the temperature continuously and follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.

Observe the condition of the diaphragms continuously. In case the

consumption of pressing air has increased and it flows into the

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

chamber even at the end of pressing, change the damaged

diaphragm immediately.

Seal

The seal is fixed to the frame on the chamber’s side in order to

prevent slurry leakages.

There is no seal below the cloth but the cloth and plastic surface are
face to face. If any counter pressure is formed in the flow space
below the cloth, it will cause filtrate leakage in the plate pack.

Frame

The frame serves as the fixing element for the diaphragm. The plate
pack seal is fixed to the lower surface of the frame. The feed
channels leading into the filtration chamber have been led through
the frame.

Filtrate Collectors

The filtrate collectors, when in the position “ pack closed” , form

channels through which the filtrate is discharged from the plate pack.
The alignment of the collectors should be observed, when moved
from their places, the collectors cause leakage in the line; correct
their position. These changes in alignment are due to wearing of slide
pieces and/or moving of the filtrate chamber.

Closing Mechanism

General

The closing mechanism comprises quick action cylinders(1), sealing

cylinders(2) and locking pins(3).

The closing of the plate pack takes place in two stages: fist the plate
pack is closed by means of quick action cylinders and after closing
the plate pack is sealed with sealing cylinders.

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

Quick Action

The plate pack is open after previous cycle. The plate pack closes
when the top pressing plate(5) is driven to its low position by means
of quick action cylinders(1).

After this, the locking pins(3) fix the top pressing plate(5) to the
columns (6) which have been fixed to the base plate(7).

The filtration chambers have thus been formed, and the plate pack is
now surrounded by the pressing plates, base plate and columns.

Sealing

After locking, the filtration chambers are sealed tightly by pressing the
plate pack(4) between the pressing plates by sealing cylinders (2)
fixed to the base plate(7).

When the sealing cylinders (2) reach the pressure required for
closing the plate pack, automatically controlled locking valves shut off
their oil connecting elements. The purpose of these valves is to
secure that the cylinders stay in place.

After filtration, the plate pack opens for cake discharge.

The sealing cylinders (2) return to their initial position, after which the
locking pins(3) are drawn to their “open” position which releases the
top pressing plate (5) for quick opening.

When the filter is stopped for maintenance, make sure that the plate
pack is in its upper position and the pressing plate is fixed with
locking pins (3) to the columns.

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

Cloth Conveyor Unit

To remove the cakes and to wash the cloth, the cloth is moved by
means of drive rollers between filtering cycles. A spring-loaded
pressing roller presses the cloth against the drive roller in order to
improve the maintenance of tension.

Cloth travel adjustment

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

The length of cloth travel is measured by a freely rotating impulse

detector attached to the roller.

The number of impulses in the impulse counter must be defined so

that the filter is discharged completely. Check that the clipper seam
finds its right position o the guide roller, i.e. outside the sealing
surface.

Cloth tensioning device

The change in the cloth length that takes place during the opening of
the plate pack and cloth travel is compensated by a tensioning
device, where a torque brought about by a hydraulic motor tightens a
pair of chains fixed to the tensioning roller.

Observe the pressure used by the tensioning device motor and

compare it to the pressure used during start-up. You may increase
the torque by raising the pressure and decrease it by lowering the
pressure.

Filter Cloth

General

The cloth functions both as a filtering element and as a conveyor belt

transporting the cake out of the filter. Besides having a good filtering
ability, the cloth must also be able to withstand heavy pulling.

Only special type of fabrics can be used. The most commonly used
material is a multifilament fabric which is lengthwise stronger than
crosswise.

Pay special attention to possible holes in the cloth. Patch the holes
immediately; solid matters entering through the holes wear the filtrate
channels heavily especially during drying when the air flow speed is
high.

To sustain the cloth’s filtering properties the part of it is spray washed

by pressurized water after every filtration cycle. The washing takes
place automatically and simultaneously with the cloth travel.

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

Make sure that all the nozzles stay open and that the sprays are
directed towards the cloth in a correct angle. No unwashed stripes
must be left on the cloth. If necessary, rinse the wash liquid filter
located in the wash liquid piping.

The wash water consumption is comparable to the available pressure

according to the curves presented below. The consumption of water
is fractional – it is only used when cloth is moving.

Cloth tracking

Cloth tracking operates automatically by means of a roller movable at

its other end. The cloth may also be tracked manually with the help of
press switches to a desired direction.

Due to manufacture, there are slight bends on the cloth which is why
it drifts slightly to the sides while moving.

When tracking the cloth manually, let the cloth circulate several times
and make sure that it does not drift to either side systematically. If the
cloth does not stay centered, the cloth seam is inclined or one of the
rollers does not rotate.

Observe that cloth stays in the center area

Operation Stages Of Larox Pressure Filter

Pressure Release

For security reasons, the starting stage of PF-144 is pressure

release. During this stage, the possible pressure in the filter
chambers is released for a safer plate pack opening. The stage is
divided into two periods of time; in the first and main period, the inlet
valves are closed. During the second period, the manifold drain
valves V07 and V17 are opened.

Filtration (Slurry Feed)

When the filter plates are closed and sealed, the slurry inlet valves
V02 and V12 are opened and the slurry pump M09 is started. Slurry
is fed through the distribution pipe into each chamber through the
feed collectors. During slurry feeding the pressing water outlet valve
V04 is held open to ensure free discharge of pressing water, if any
had remained in the diaphragms from the previous cycle. The filtrate
passes through the cloth into the filtrate pan and exists the filter

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

chamber vial filtrate collectors into the filtrate side pipe and out
through the valve V01 (or V08) cake forms on the cloth. When the
filtration time runs out the slurry pump recirculation valves opened &
slurry inlet valves V02 and V12 are closed.

Drainage of Distribution Pipe

After the pressing stage and before cake air-drying, the distribution
pipe is drained of liquid. The slurry valve V02 is opened and after
that, the air dry valve V06. When the set time runs out, V06 is closed
and after that V02. The drain valve V07 of the distribution pipe is
opened. V07 is closed when the drainage time of the distribution pipe
has run out.

Cake Air Drying

The final drying of the cake is accomplished with compressed air.

The air comes into the distribution pipe through the drying air valve
V06. the drain valve V04 for the pressing water is opened 5 sec after
the opening V06 to enable the discharge of pressing water while the
pressure air fills the filter chambers. The air flowing through the cake
reduces its moisture content to the optimum, empties the filtrate
chamber and lifts the pressing diaphragms up. When the air drying
time has run out, the drying air valve V06 is closed.

Plate Pack Opening

On completion of the Pressure Release, the plate pack is unsealed

by driving the sealing cylinders down. After this, the quick action
cylinders are driven downwards to release the pins from the column
holes. Then the locking pins are unlocked and they move into the
moving pressing plate. After the locking pins have been unlocked, the
plate pack is opened by driving the quick action cylinders upwards
until the plate pack is completely open. The cloth strain starts
simultaneously with the pack opening.

Cake Discharge

When the plate pack is completely open, the cloth drive motor HM03
is started, the cloth wash inlet valve V09 is opened and the motor

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

CEMENT DIVISION, TATA CHEMICALS LIMITED

M06 (if there is one) of the pressure rising pump started. The cake
formed on the cloth is then discharged into the cake chutes on both
ends of the filter. After the first plate length of discharge, the
discharge time starts to count down and the speed of the cloth is
increased. After the discharge time has run out, the following stage is
RESTART.

RESTART

When the discharge has been completed and the clipper seam
placed outside the cloth with the low speed of cloth, the cloth drive
motor HM09 is stopped, the motor M06 of the pressure rising pump is
stopped and the inlet valve V09 of the cloth wash water is closed.
After a restart delay, the cloth-tensioning roller is driven upwards to
loosen the cloth.

Plate Pack Closing

After completing the restart operations, the filter begins to close the
plate pack. The first stage takes place with the help of the quick
action closing cylinders. When the plate pack is down, it is followed
by locking of the pins. Finally the plate pack is sealed by driving the
sealing cylinders upwards until the required sealing pressure is
reached. The pressing water outlet valve V04 is kept open to ensure
fee discharge of pressing air in case any has remained in the
diaphragms during the previous cycle.

Stop at the end of the cycles

After completing the restart operations, if END mode was selected,

the filter proceeds to STOP AT END subroutine. First the quick action
opening cylinders are driven upwards to ensure that the plate pack is
completely open. This is followed by locking of the pins. The filter is
stopped and the program jumps back to Cake Discharge stage.

Note: Operation Principle of PF-144 & PF-38 is more or less same.

The difference between operations is 2nd Pressing. In PF-38 second
pressing is carried out with high pressurized water (20 Bar).
