What are the uses of Roots blower
As a type of fluid mechanical equipment, Roots blower has been widely used in various fields due to its stable flow rate, wide pressure range, and compact structure. The following are the main uses of Roots blowers:
1、 Environmental Protection and Water Treatment Field
1. Air purification: Roots blowers can be used for exhaust gas treatment and purification equipment, such as dust removal, exhaust gas treatment, and exhaust gas treatment in chemical processes. The airflow generated by the Roots blower can effectively send the gas inhaled by the exhaust gas treatment equipment to the purification equipment for treatment, and the purified gas is then discharged.
2. Wastewater treatment: In the wastewater treatment process, Roots blowers serve as aeration devices to transfer oxygen to the wastewater in aeration tanks or activated sludge process processors, promoting microbial growth and dissolved oxygen concentration in the wastewater to facilitate its degradation. At the same time, the airflow generated by the Roots blower is used to stir the sewage, allowing the pollutants in the sewage to fully mix with the treatment agents and improve the treatment efficiency.
2、 Industrial production and processing field
1. Material transportation: The airflow generated by Roots blower can be used for material transportation, such as in industries such as chemical, building materials, and grain. It can be used to transport powdered or granular materials such as cement, flour, coal powder, plastic particles, and grains. The material is mixed with air through a pipeline to form a gas-solid two-phase flow, and the material is transported to a designated location using the airflow pressure generated by a Roots blower.
2. Processing equipment: Roots blowers can also be used in processing equipment for industries such as food and chemical, such as mixing, conveying, or unloading, to improve production efficiency and ensure product quality.
3、 Energy and Combustion Sector
1. Combustion assistance and air supply: In vertical kilns, incinerators, blast furnaces, converter steelmaking and other processes in cement production, Roots blowers serve as combustion assistance fans or air supply equipment, compressing gas to send fuel into the combustion chamber or combustion gas from the bottom of the kiln to achieve high-temperature incineration or help materials fall vertically in the kiln, achieving clinker firing.
2. Fuel atomization: In tunnel ceramic kilns, vertical magnesia kilns, and glass pool furnaces, Roots blowers are used to atomize fuel, dividing the oil flow into fine strands and trapping bubbles, forming small diameter droplet mist groups to improve combustion efficiency.
4、 Other fields
1. Aquaculture: In large-scale fish and shrimp farms or circular water aquaculture systems, Roots blowers inject air into the water through an aeration system to increase the dissolved oxygen content in the water, providing a good living environment for aquatic organisms such as fish and shrimp, and improving aquaculture density and yield.
2. Humidification and dust removal: Roots blower can be used in humidification devices to provide air source for stabilizing indoor temperature, and can also be used to prevent static electricity in textile, cigarette, and printing factories. At the same time, Roots blowers can also be used for vacuum cleaning, cleaning various loose particles and dust.
3. Special applications: Roots blower can also be used in special fields and occasions such as electroplating tank, gas burner, sandblasting device, backwashing, printing machine paper feeding, pressure machinery, spray, sauna sand bath, etc.
In summary, Roots blowers have a wide range of applications and important roles in industrial production, environmental water treatment, energy combustion, and many other fields.
