How moisture is measured in sludge - easily explained! Moisture measurement for sludge with individual developed screw compaction unit from ACO. The mounted moisture sensor is determining the water content of the waste sludge. The signal of the moisture sensor is used for managing the drying process.

ACO moisture measurement for biomass like wood chips, sawdust and wood shavings Properties: Ideal material conditions for the on-line moisture measurement Flexible mounting of the bypass screw conveyor Maintenance flap for taking samples Subsequently applicable Great experience in the field of saw dust Versions: Length, height, dimensions of flanges on customer requirements Version for explosion-risk areas (EX) The SFM4 bypass screw compaction unit has to be placed in a free fall situation of material, e.g. in a drop shaft. A partial flow of this material is trapped in the first section of the compaction unit. The screw compactor compresses the material and conveys it into the second part of the unit, right across the installed ACO moisture sensor for the determination of the residual moisture. Then the material falls down through a drop pipe back into the process. Based on this constant and equal conditions (density, dumping height, etc...) precise measuring results are available.

increasing quality – increasing efficiency – saving money The field of application for wood is extremely varied. Using wood as a renewable energy source is one of the fastest growing application area for wood. In this kind of timber industry wood is processed in quiet different ways. A few examples for usable material- or transport forms are wood-chips, wood-pellets, wood-shavings or sawdust. To reach a highly effective combustion in the wood-burning ovens a moisture measurement is absolutely essential. On one hand a moisture measurement is able to measure the exact residual moisture in the material. The quality of all produced wooden bulk-materials increases highly by using a moisture measurement. And on the other hand there is also the possibility to raise the efficiency of a plant through optimizing cost-intensive drying- and irrigation processes. A very important aspect by installing a moisture measurement sensor is a well conceived mounting position in the production plant. Every production plant has its own individual…
