HyCator™: PBD Reactor System
A high technology solution for particle breakdown.HyCator™:PBD can reduce the size of the particles by the extreme transient conditions generated in the vicinity and within the collapsing cavitational bubbles which are used for the size reduction of the material.
Key benefits of the HyCator™: PBD Reactor System are:
1. Physical Benefits
- No footprint…can be retrofitted on the existing pipeline
- Can be used for any type of material
2. Chemical Benefits
- No usage of chemicals and bio agents
3. Mechanical Benefits
- Precision engineered with no moving parts
- Can be designed for all sizes and flow
4. Economic Benefits
- 100 percent depreciation can be claimed in the very first year itself
5. Overall Benefits
- Increases efficiency of anaerobic/aerobic bio reactions by 30 %
- Equipment is totally maintenance free and needs no operational supervision
- No consumables
Working Principles of HyCator™:PBD Reactor System
To reduce a material's particle size, large particles or lumps must be fractured into smaller particles. To initiate fractures, external forces are applied to the particles. Generally, the extent of particle size reduction caused by an external force depends on the amount of energy supplied to the particle, the rate at which it is supplied, and the manner in which it is supplied. The precision engineered HyCator™:PBD system consists of a reactor where the compound is subjected to controlled magnitude, random and targeted pressure variations so as to generate%% precise gas, gas-vapor and vapour filled cavities. The cavities are allowed to grow to a desired size and then made to oscillate or collapsed under highly controlled conditions. The collapsing cavities generate spherically diverging shock-waves (symmetric collapse) or surface normal liquid jets (asymmetric collapse). Particle size can be controlled by adjusting the pressure and the solution retention time in the cavitation chamber.
Installations
The HyCator™:PBD reactor system can be easily installed in the existing pipeline network without any significant modifications and can be done by in house service / maintenance personnel.
Maintenance
The HyCator™:PBD reactor system requires minimum / zero operational supervision and maintenance, freeing the personnel for other productive work.
