Compactors

Compactors

Features:
• Compacts "off spec" fines into good product
• Turns over 90% of scrap or reject into usable/salable product
• Converts hazardous or nuisance dust into easier-to-handle forms
• Reduces volume of waste or excess product
• Resolves environmental or flow problems

Compactors - Information

Prater's compaction capabilities are used to improve flowability, solubility, dust control, and waste by-products recovery. Compactors and Briquettors provide effective methods for controlling particle size to avoid both contamination and dusting problems. The increased material density through briquetting provides cost effective flexibility to increase bulk density to reduce storage volume, retain product integrity, reducing handling costs, and maximize shipping weights.

Lime Sludge Limestone Lithium Carbonate Magnetite Magnesia Magnesium Carbonates Magnesium Oxide Manganese Ore Marl Metals Metal Chips Mica Mill Scale Minerals Molybdenum Nickel Oxide (TSF-140) This Int’l producer of nickel, mixes ground matte Nickel Oxide & water, compacts the material into a non-rolling form, separates the fines (-1/8” material) for re-compaction & achieves a max production rate of 7 tons/hour. The system consists of a slew of prater equipment: TSF-140 Compactor, 2 Airlocks (PAV-6 & PAV-8), 12x45 Continuous Mixer which are all systematically integrated with Sterling Controls.
