Silica Sand Acid Pickling & Purification
Acid pickling is commonly used during the production of high-purity silica sand and quartz products to reduce acid-soluble contaminants and improve the purity of the processed material.
The rotating double-cone configuration continuously moves the material through the processing solution, promoting uniform exposure throughout the batch. The PTFE lining provides a chemically resistant contact surface, making the vessel suitable for corrosive processing environments where compatible acids and process chemicals are used.
Depending on the process design and feed material, the equipment may form part of a broader purification system incorporating washing, classification, acid treatment, neutralisation, rinsing, filtration and drying.
Typical Applications
The 2000L PTFE-Lined Double Cone Pickling Kettle is suitable for applications including:
- Silica sand processing
- Quartz sand purification
- High-purity quartz processing
- Acid pickling and acid leaching
- Mineral impurity removal
- Chemical washing and treatment
- Specialty mineral processing
- High-purity raw material production
PTFE-Lined Construction
The internal PTFE lining provides a corrosion-resistant barrier between the process medium and the structural vessel. PTFE offers broad chemical resistance and is commonly selected for equipment handling aggressive chemical solutions.
Final material compatibility should always be confirmed against the specific chemical, concentration, operating temperature and process conditions required for the application.
Double Cone Processing Vessel
The double-cone geometry allows the vessel contents to tumble as the kettle rotates. This movement promotes mixing without relying solely on a conventional internal agitator and provides effective interaction between solid mineral feed and liquid processing media.
For silica sand and quartz purification applications, this design can assist with achieving more uniform treatment across the processed batch.
