World Class Supplier of Glass Sand Production Plants
In the market for silica and glass sand processing proper sampling is a paramount importance. This will enable all experts involved in the project to perform tests which will allow a detailed flow development, proper equipment and plant sizing, material balancing, operational cost estimation and last but not least defining product guarantees. The silica (SiO2) content in the sand is of crucial importance for its application as a raw material in glass making.

In our modern, state-of-the art technical laboratory, located in Germany we can perform these wide range of analysis and tests (lab to pilot scales). It is equipped with all important equipment and process units, able to execute and to simulate all major steps of wet mechanical processes.

Scope:

•  Determination of solid content and slurry densities
•  Determination of physical and chemical properties
•  Digital microscopy
•  L.O. I. (Loss On Ignition)
•  Screening and laser granulometry particle size analysis
•  Chemical analysis (XRF)
•  Mineralogical analysis (XRD)

Lab Scale / Pilot Scale Tests

•  Classifying
•  Sorting
•  Solid / liquid separation
•  Gravimetric separation
•  Thickening
•  Dewatering
•  Magnetic separation




Equipment for Glass Sand Production

•  AKA-SCREEN Wet Classification Screens: for fine screening
•  AKA-VORTEX Hydrocyclones: for solid-liquid separation, classification, sorting and desliming
•  AKA-SPIDER Hydrocyclone Distributors: for even distribution of the suspension
•  AKA-TRIT High Performance Attrition Cells: for efficient surface scrubbing  
•  AKA-SIZER Upstream Classifiers: for sharp classification
•  AKA-MULTISIZER Multi Chamber Upstream Classifier: for decomposing
•  AKA-SPIN: Spirals: for gravity separation and sorting  
•  AKA-SET High Performance Thickeners: for process water clarification and slurry thickening
