 Application: Cleaning and separation of phosphate from raw ore in recovery plant for end use in fertilizers.
Where In Process?: Kates controls the addition of cleaning agents (fatty acids, ammonia, etc.) into troughs containing a slurry mixture of phosphate ore.
Why Flow Rate is Critical?: A proper blend of the cleaning agents is critical to achieve a good mix for the proper separation of the phosphate from dirt and other minerals.
What Alternatives Were Considered: Kates replaces control valves in a conventional electronic loop.
Main Reasons for Choosing Kates: Kates’ ability to maintain constant flow regardless of pressure changes eliminates the searching and fighting of controls valves caused by different loads on the distribution system.
