Is the high-efficiency concentrator processing slow and the overflow water turbid? Shanlu Heavy Industry's customized solution efficiently meets standards

2026-01-23

In the environmental treatment process of large-scale quartz sand production lines (with a daily processing capacity of ≥ 3000 tons), the high-efficiency concentrator is responsible for the rapid settling of tailings slurry (with a solid content of 10% -20%) and the recovery of clear liquid. It is required that the concentration of the bottom stream after concentration be ≥ 60% and the sand content of the overflow water be ≤ 0.05g/L, which is directly related to the water resource recycling rate and environmental emission standards. The current environmental protection policies are becoming increasingly strict, and many enterprises are facing production difficulties due to low efficiency of concentrator treatment, turbid overflow water, and high bottom water content. As a strong enterprise deeply engaged in the research and development, production, and customized services of quartz sand equipment for more than 10 years, Shanlu Heavy Industry has multiple core technology patents, focusing on providing one-stop solutions for quartz sand enterprises from equipment selection, optimization and transformation to after-sales operation and maintenance. Its customized concentration machine optimization solution has successfully helped dozens of large quartz sand enterprises across the country solve environmental protection and production capacity problems.

1、 Core pain point disassembly: 3 major core challenges in the operation of the concentrator

Based on the research data of the technical team of Shanlu Heavy Industry on quartz sand production sites in many parts of the country, there are generally three major pain points for high-efficiency thickeners: first, low settling efficiency. Traditional thickeners have a single tank processing capacity of less than 200m ³/h, which cannot meet the tailings processing needs of large production lines, resulting in tailings accumulation; Secondly, the overflow water is turbid, and the fine sand particles cannot fully settle, resulting in excessive sand content in the overflow water, which not only wastes water resources but also faces environmental risks; The third issue is that the bottom stream has a high moisture content, resulting in poor flowability of the concentrated tailings and a significant increase in subsequent dry discharge or transportation costs. The core root cause of these problems lies in insufficient adaptability of equipment structure, unreasonable dosing of chemicals, and poor coordination between mixing and scraping systems.

2、 Shanlu Heavy Industry Customized Optimization Plan: Three Dimensions for Efficient Breakthrough

Relying on its strong research and development capabilities and rich on-site practical experience, Shanlu Heavy Industry has created an exclusive optimization plan for the characteristics of quartz sand tailings, achieving efficient concentration from three dimensions: structure, chemicals, and system. Shanlu Heavy Industry always adheres to the concept of "adapting to local conditions and precise adaptation". All solutions are customized based on the actual production conditions, raw material characteristics, and environmental requirements of the enterprise, which is different from traditional general optimization and more targeted and practical.

1. Structural upgrade: adapted to the settling characteristics of quartz sand and fine sand

In response to the problem of slow settling of fine sand particles, Shanlu Heavy Industry has customized the structure and scraping system of the concentrator tank: the traditional flat bottomed tank has been changed to a conical bottom (cone angle 12-15 °), equipped with a high-frequency vibration bottom flow device to accelerate the agglomeration and settling of fine sand, and the bottom flow concentration has been increased to over 65%; Upgrade the central transmission scraper, using the patented spiral scraper plate from Shandong Heavy Industry, which increases the scraper efficiency by 30% and avoids the accumulation of fine sand at the bottom of the pool; Install a circular stabilizing device on the upper part of the pool to reduce water flow disturbance, ensure sufficient settling of fine sand, and ensure stable and compliant sand content in overflow water.

2. Pharmaceutical adaptation: Customized flocculation system improves sedimentation efficiency

Unreasonable dosage of medication is a key cause of turbid overflow water. Shanlu Heavy Industry, with its professional water quality analysis team, customizes exclusive flocculation agent solutions for enterprises: using anionic polyacrylamide (molecular weight 12-18 million) suitable for quartz sand fine sand, combined with self-developed auxiliary settling agents (environmentally friendly and residue free), through a precise metering and dosing system, the dosage of the agent is controlled at 2-4g/t, reducing the traditional dosage by 30% and increasing the settling speed by more than 40%. Simultaneously equipped with online water quality monitoring devices, the dosage of chemicals can be adjusted in real-time to ensure stable treatment effects.

3. System Collaboration: Adapt the entire process to meet the requirements of the production line

Shanlu Heavy Industry emphasizes the full process collaboration between equipment and production lines, optimizes the synchronous matching of variable frequency feeding system in the plan, and accurately controls the feeding amount at 85% -95% of the rated value to avoid overloading and incomplete processing; Equipped with an intelligent liquid level control system, real-time monitoring of the liquid level in the pool, automatic adjustment of overflow and bottom flow discharge speed, ensuring continuous and stable operation of the equipment. In addition, Shanlu Heavy Industry also equips equipment with remote monitoring modules, allowing enterprises to view operational data in real time, and operation and maintenance personnel to remotely troubleshoot simple faults, significantly reducing operation and maintenance costs.

3、 Implementation value of the plan: dual improvement of environmental protection and production capacity

At present, the customized optimization plan has been implemented in large-scale quartz sand projects in Shandong, Henan, Anhui and other places. After adopting the Shanlu Heavy Industry plan, a certain quartz sand enterprise with a daily output of 4000 tons has increased the single tank processing capacity of the concentrator to 300m ³/h, the sand content of the overflow water remains stable below 0.03g/L, the bottom water content has been reduced to 55%, and the water resource recycling rate has been increased to 96%, saving more than one million yuan in environmental protection costs and water resource costs annually. As a benchmark enterprise in the quartz sand equipment industry, Shanlu Heavy Industry has a standardized production base and a professional technical service team. It promises a one-year warranty after equipment optimization and lifelong technical support, ensuring worry free production for the enterprise.
