SLUDGE STABILIZATION AND BOLIDIFICATION

Colloid Environmental Technologies

Co. (CETCO), Arlington Heights, Zll.

CETCO’s new LiquiSorb product line for sludge stabilization and solidification is suitable for haz- ardous and nonhazardous liquids, wet industrial sludges, and dredg- ing wastes. It creates a dry, stable waste that passes Paint Filter testing and, in many cases, re- duces leaching of contaminants. LiquiSorb 200 is an advanced su- perabsorbent polymer formulated to absorb large volumes of aque- ous liquids, forming a high- strength matrix suitable for dis- posal or incineration as a solid. LiquiSorb 1000 is a proprietary formulation that absorbs aqueous liquids and fixates organics in- cluding oil, PCBs, and semivola- tiles. Circle 411 on the reader service card

GAS MONITOR

Control Instruments Corp.,

Fairfield, N. J.

The SmartMaxI control monitor/ transmitter can be installed any- where in the field and handles the readings from as many as four different sensors, including com- bustible, parts per million, toxic, and oxygen. It is fully equipped with alarm, display, and output features including on-board re-

lays, 4-20 mA output, and an RS- 485 serial port. Circle 412 on the reader service card

TEMPERATURE MONITORING

Datapaq Inc., Wilmington, Mass.

Datapaq’s Oven Tracker XL is ca- pable of responding to the rapid product temperature rises in IR ov- ens, allowing for accurate tempera- ture monitoring. Datapaq’s ther- mocouple probes are designed specifically to measure product temperature and prevent direct ra- diative heating measurement er- rors. They offer the possibility of measuring concealed product areas to identify possible IR blind spots. The system records up to 50,400 readings, offers accuracy to +0.5”C, and allows programming of reading intervals with time or temperature triggers. Four-, six-, or eight-channel data loggers are available. Circle 413 on the reader service card

PRESSURE FILTER

Environmental Process Technologies Corp., Hebron, Ky.

The Model 53300 is a triple-cell multimedia pressure filter pri- marily applied as a polishing filter in metal hydroxide precipi- tation processes. The micropro- cessor-controller filter system is preprogrammed and controls all aspects of the filter’s performance and a 90-t’% reduction of sus- pended solids is typical. Ex- tremely low backwash volumes ordinarily are less than 1% of the raw wastewater flow. Circle 415 on the reader service card

AGUEOUS CLEANING

AND DRYING SYSTEM

Forward Technology, Minneapolis

The Vortometric v. 2.00 burner is built to fire light and heavy fuel oils and almost any indus- trial gas to extremely high out- puts. The high combustion air swirl rate produced by the Vor- tometric burner produces a sta- ble flame with high turndown ca- pabilities across its wide range of fuel options. Vortometric v.200 MI (medium intensity) and HI (high intensity) Series multifuel burners operate from 6 million to

210 million BTU/hr making them the right choice for any high output heating process in- cluding large dryers, ovens, ther- mal oxidizers, boilers, and nu- merous environmentally sen- sitive air heating applications. The burner can operate at low excess air where maximum effi- ciency is required or high excess air for high volume process air heating. Circle 414 on the reader service card

The PA-Series effectively cleans and dries both simple and com- plex parts at high throughput rates. The PA-Series offers a high-quality, predesigned system, which features constant Aow re- circulation. This feature monitors recirculation flow rates of tank liquid and compensates for filter loading. Typical applications in- clude disk drives, high vacuum components, optical components, or ultrapure gas valves where
