Product catalog summary

Overview: The document discusses the SPX Process Equipment's LIGHTNIN VSF Side-Entry Mixer, designed for Flue Gas Desulfurization (FGD) Absorber Service. It highlights the importance of investing in reliable mixing equipment for future efficiency.

Oxidation Lance System: The FGD systems have evolved to include a Forced Oxidation Lance System, which optimizes the mass transfer of oxidation air into the absorber vessel. LIGHTNIN has developed a lance sparge system, successfully implemented in various installations across Europe and China, to enhance mass transfer efficiency.

Mixing Experience: LIGHTNIN brings over 80 years of mixing experience to FGD processes, emphasizing the balance between capital cost, energy consumption, and reliability. The company has a history of successful applications of top and side entry agitators since the 1960s.

Design Features: The VSF Side-Entry Mixer includes a rugged gearbox, C-Face motor mount, and a slurry seal that requires no seal water. The A-312 Impeller is designed for strong discharge and solid suspension, reducing erosion and increasing blade life.

Testing and Scale-Up: LIGHTNIN is equipped to scale up or down mixing systems accurately, addressing the complexities of gas dispersion and mass transfer in FGD processes.

Mechanical Seal: The LIGHTNIN FGD Single Slurry Seal is engineered for harsh environments, operating without outside flush liquid, reducing operating expenses. It features a low-pressure clean-out, sleeve drive, radial bearing, and carbide faces for abrasion resistance.

Global Support: LIGHTNIN offers expert sales and service worldwide, with strategically located manufacturing and service facilities ensuring fast delivery and dependable after-order service. Genuine spare parts and service solutions are available globally.
