All about Nozzle Screens by CP Screens

Nozzle Screens : All about it

Hi there everyone, welcome back to CP Screens Pte. Ltd Blog. Our last post was on  Profile Wire Screens.

Today we will be walk you through on our product called Nozzle Screen.

Before we walk you through on CP Screens Pte Ltd's  Nozzle Screen, let us look at the features of a Nozzle Screen.

 Nozzle Screens : Petrochemical & Refining Industries 

First of all, Nozzle screens is catered mainly to the Petrochemical & Refining industry. The petrochemical & refining industry used the nozzle screen frequently for water treatment processes like Ion Exchange. What is Ion exchange? Take a look at how Wiki define Ion Exchange and the application of it.

Ion exchange is an exchange of ions between two electrolytes or between an electrolyte solution and a complex. In most cases the term is used to denote the processes of purification, separation, and decontamination of aqueous and other ion-containing solutions with solid polymeric or mineralic 'ion exchangers'.
Typical ion exchangers are ion exchange resins (functionalized porous or gel polymer), zeolites, montmorillonite, clay, and soil humus. Ion exchangers are either cation exchangers that exchange positively charged ions (cations) or anion exchangers that exchange negatively charged ions (anions). There are also amphoteric exchangers that are able to exchange both cations and anions simultaneously. However, the simultaneous exchange of cations and anions can be more efficiently performed in mixed beds that contain a mixture of anion and cation exchange resins, or passing the treated solution through several different ion exchange materials.

Application of Ion Exchange

Ion exchange is widely used in the food & beverage, hydrometallurgical, metals finishing, chemical & petrochemical, pharmaceutical, sugar & sweeteners, ground & potable water, nuclear, softening & industrial water, semiconductor, power, and a host of other industries.
Most typical example of application is preparation of high purity water for power engineering, electronic and nuclear industries; i.e. polymeric or mineralic insoluble ion exchangers are widely used for water softening, water purification, water decontamination, etc.

Ion exchange is a method widely used in household (laundry detergents and water filters) to produce soft water. This is accomplished by exchanging calcium Ca²⁺ and magnesium Mg²⁺ cations against Na⁺ or H⁺ cations (see water softening). Another application for ion exchange in domestic water treatment is the removal of nitrate and natural organic matter.
Industrial and analytical ion exchange chromatography is another area to be mentioned. Ion exchange chromatography is a chromatographical method that is widely used for chemical analysis and separation of ions. For example, in biochemistry it is widely used to separate charged molecules such as proteins. An important area of the application is extraction and purification of biologically produced substances such as proteins (amino acids) and DNA/RNA.

Ion-exchange processes are used to separate and purify metals, including separating uranium from plutonium and other actinides, including thorium, and lanthanum, neodymium, ytterbium, samarium, lutetium, from each other and the other lanthanides. There are two series of rare earth metals, the lanthanides and the actinides, both of whose families all have very similar chemical and physical properties. Using methods developed by Frank Spedding in the 1940s, ion-exchange used to be the only practical way to separate them in large quantities, until the advent of solvent extraction techniques that can be scaled up enormously.

 So we see that Ion exchange is widely used in the Petrochemical industry where it's main function is to prepare high purity water for power engineering, electronic and nuclear industries.

Back to the topic Nozzle Screen, we see that these screens are used in large quantities and positioned evenly over a circular nozzle plate located at the bottom of a vessel. The Screen Nozzle will both retain resin/media and uniformly collect and distribute process flow.

Here's the picture how a nozzle screen look like.

Sizing, spacing and quantity of Screen Nozzles are critical in ensuring high efficiency and a resulting low pressure drop. The slot size of Screen Nozzles and other types of Profile Wire Screens in the ‘Ion Exchange’ process is commonly 0.2 mm. Read more here.....

Nozzle Screen By CP Screens

Today CP Screens a leading profile wire screen in Singapore produce and manufacture nozzle screen. Below are some of the specification of the nozzle screens.

CP Screens provides the Screen Nozzle with either a tapered threaded connection to screw directly into the nozzle plate, or with a parallel thread to allow the Screen Nozzle to be fixed to the nozzle plate via lock nuts. Whether you are using a plain bottom plate or a rubber-lined bottom plate, CP Screens will have the right solution for fixing the Screens Nozzle for you
