Mr. Lalit Vashishta, a chemical engineer and the Director of M/s Diva Envitec Filtration Technologies Pvt Ltd, Mumbai will be speaking on the latest CONTUFILT-M system.
TOPIC:
"Contufilt-M - for Catalyst Filtration from Hydrogenation reactions with 100% High Value Catalyst recovery and Zero Hold-up Design for the API and Chemical Industry"
Diva Envitec™ - CONTUFILT-M is designed for an outside-in filtration for polishing in hydrogenation slurry filtration. The systems are back washable and easy to use and maintain:
- Zero-Holdup design
- Closed system: Helps reduce operator exposure to hazardous materials
- Accessibility: Easy access to elements from top
- Compact Design: Element bundle is removable as an assembly
- Coded Vessels: Filter areas up to 200 m2, withstands differential pressure as high as 300 Kg/cm2. Designed generally in accordance with ASME section VIII.
The system is ideal for polishing filter applications, Metal catalysts, inorganic bromide salts, copper chromite catalyst recovery, and ion exchange filtration applications.
At the end of each filter cycle, solids are backwashed off the outside of the elements and discharged as a concentrated slurry back to the reactor or wet cake is discharged in closed containers.
The system in addition,
- Offers ultimate particle retention, back-washability, solids capacity and strength
- Can be used in conjunction with filter aids for difficult filtration applications
- The porous metal backwash filter system is used in slurry Hydrogenation chemical reactions to remove catalyst solids for improved product quality and reduced operating costs.
