Dry Polymer Activation
Polymer-particle wetting is the first step in optimizing hydration and activation of dry polymer. With this in mind, we developed systems that disperse and atomize the dry polymer before introducing it into the wetting chamber. This approach minimizes the time it takes for hydration and limits the potential for shear damage from extended exposure to mechanical mixing. The ProBatchTM direct wetting bowl technology is recommended for applications from 1# per hour, up to 25#/hour of dry polymer. The HydraMax TM shower type wetting technology is recommended for applications from 5# per hour, up to 1000# per hour.
ProBatchTM Wetting Bowl Technology
For low polymer feed rate applications wetting bowls offer a low-cost solution to dry polymer preparation. Our ProBatchTM technology is designed to optimize dry polymer hydration and activation through a reliable, non-mechanical wetting bowl.
HydraMax™ Shower Wetting Technology
For mid to high polymer feed rate applications where higher wetting rates of dry polymer are required, pneumatic conveyance with shower type wetting optimizes polymer-particle wetting. Our HydraMaxTM technology is designed to optimize dry polymer hydration and activation through a clean and reliable pneumatic conveyance system and shower type wetting head. This technology is recommended for applications requiring 5#/hour up to 1000#/hour of dry polymer.
