Cedar Meats chief engineer Yogesh Mistry, impressed with the simplicity of the system, purchased the EDUR DAF pump.
ADVANTAGES:
Early leak detection Easy hose changes Pump thick sludge easily No corrosion issues Only one wearing part Very easy servicing
They wanted a more en- ergy efficient system and one that could deliver low running costs for the life of the DAF unit.
The water is then fed back into the bottom of the DAF tank where the
No compressor or air saturation pressure vessel is needed.
VACCINATION IS NOT AN ART.
Protection, with proven safety, is.

mixes the air with the water and, under pres- sure from the multi-stage pump, air saturates into the effluent water.
They needed to up- grade their dissolved air flotation system but didn’t want to go for the ‘standard’ offering.
A compressor also feeds compressed air into the same vessel and the air saturates into the effluent water under pressure.
The process requires a control system to com- bine air and water needs, and it requires regular certification of the pres- sure vessel.
The water is then pumped into the bottom of the tank, where the air comes out of solution, as in conventional systems.

The pump draws clean effluent from the DAF tank and at the same time draws in atmospheric air on the suction side of the pump.

The options
Mr Mistry was im- pressed with the sim- plicity of the system and promptly arranged the purchase of an EDUR DAF pump.
There is also mainte- nance of the DAF pump, compressor and pressure vessel to consider, along with energy consumption of both the pump and the compressor.
He has been very pleased with the positive results, which include:
Capital expenses and running costs are not cheap for this ‘standard’ system.
• A higher rate of solids removed
Cedar Meats chief en- gineer Mr Yogesh Mistry went looking for a solu- tion that did not involve intricate and delicate control systems and did not need ongoing Work- Safe certification for pressure vessels.
• Less power used for the job, reducing power costs
He contacted Hydro In- novations to get informa- tion on the EDUR DAF pump he had read about. The solution
• Low maintenance fu- ture ahead for the system. The pump EDUR has developed has these effi- cient and smart solutions through precision engi- neering and machining, resulting in a pump range that is currently revolu- tionising new fields and in applications unheard
German pump manu- facturer since 1927, EDUR has developed a multi-stage multi-phase pump capable of han- dling a gas/water mix- ture, making it ideal as a DAF pump.
