Benefits of an Air Washer in the Textile Industry

The textile industry employs several mechanisms, including humidification, dehumidification and cooling, which are typically essential for the manufacturing unit to achieve optimal production. They are usually employed in the production of non-wovens. 

Air Washer - Working and Functionality

The air gets sucked in across a set of underwater rotating discs. Impurities like particles, fine dust, pollen, viruses, bacteria, or animal hair get washed from the air in the water tank, and it absorbs and retains humidity. The humidified air then gets emitted back into the surroundings.

To perform the process of humidification or dehumidification, you only need chilled water. The air washer cooler can execute tasks such as cooling, humidifying and more on its own.

An air washer does not require human intervention since the process is automated and complements the manufacturing process such that it significantly boosts productivity.

Textile Processing and Humidity Control

Humidity is not a critical issue in most industries but can be disastrous during textile processing. Humidity can halt production, damage machinery and even be hazardous in terms of labour safety. However, appropriate humidity control can maximise product weights, improve product quality and boost machine speeds.

Cold air can hold less moisture than warm air, which implies that the humidity is relative to temperature. For instance, air at 10°C holds less moisture than air at 20°C. Despite the same amount of water suspended in both air samples, the warmer one holds lower relative humidity.

Therefore, even in humid regions, the indoor air humidity stays low when cool air from outside enters a textile processing facility, and there is an increase in temperature.

A rise of 20°C can drop humidity levels by around 60%rH (relative humidity), implying that if humid air makes its way into a facility at 80%rH, it will decrease to just 20%rH when heated, which is something that all textile machinery manufacturers in India must be cautious about.

Perks and Benefits of Air Washers

Here are some benefits of using an air washer in the textile industry - 

  • Modular Design

The modular design of the air washer offers significant benefits in the textile industry and is extremely easy to operate. Its unique design makes it corrosion-resistant.

  • Efficient Operation

The air washer provides adequate humidification with minimal pressure loss. It also offers high air throughput and embodies atomiser nozzles that are clogging resistant. Their efficient operation also makes them low-maintenance machines.

  • Multi-Utility 

An air washer is essentially a combination of an air purifier and a humidifier in a single unit that performs the tasks of purification and humidification respectively and at the same time.

  • Energy-Efficient

Air washers are energy-efficient and ensure natural cooling. Air washers are available in different designs and capacities to suit all preferences and cooling requirements. 

Miscellaneous Benefits of Air Washers

Here are some miscellaneous benefits of using air washers in the textile industry -

  1. Air washers cool the ambience by up to 19°C in dry climates.
  2. Uses up to 80% less power compared to refrigerated air conditioning.
  3. Air washers are affordable, sustainable and naturally cooling machines.
  4. Improves air quality by removing foul odours.
  5. Efficiency increases with a temperature rise.
  6. Features a submersible type water pump to ensure a continuous supply of water.
  7. Improves productivity owing to the cool circulating air.

Final Words

Humidity and temperature control are crucial in the textile industry since they can either make or break your production quality and reputation in the industry. Several issues revolve around humidification in textile plants and, to counter them, it is advisable to use air washers. Air washers act as humidifiers and air purifiers, are economical and feature a modular design. If you're looking for a top-grade air washer, check out A.T.E. Group's products that will surely save you time and money in the long run.

All You Need to Know About Vertical Centrifugal Pumps

A centrifugal pump helps transport fluids by converting rotational kinetic energy into hydrodynamic energy of the flow of liquid. In simpler terms, a centrifugal pump is a machine that transports fluids across various locations. 

Vertical centrifugal pump employ a unique shaft and bear support configuration, which lets the volute hang in the sump while the bearings sit outside the sump.

Vertical Centrifugal Pump: Working and Mechanism

The pump is based on the principle of conversion of energy. Here is a step-by-step working of a centrifugal pump -

  • The pump suction nozzle lets the liquid in
  • The liquid further enters the rotating impeller vane through the eye
  • The rotating impeller generates a centrifugal force that pushes the liquid outward
  • The liquid then enters the volute casing, which dampens its velocity and increases the pressure while directing the fluid towards the discharge nozzle
  • The impeller and casing carry out the conversion of energy. The impeller ensures power transfer to the fluid, while the casing converts the same liquid head. If you wish to learn more about pumps, visit ATE India and browse Axis Valence product lineup as per your requirements.

Vertical Centrifugal Pump: Significance and Properties A vertical centrifugal pump is the most commonly used type in different industries. Here are some of its properties-

  • Vertical pumps are ideal for applications with a low net positive suction head (NPSH), cooling water services and cryogenic temperatures
  • Vertical pumps save floor space since they take up 75% less than a horizontal pump with an electric motor drive
  • You can install a vertical pump in a well which eliminates the requirement for a surface reservoir
  • Since the driver for vertical pumps is up off the floor, the chances of damage caused by flooding are minimal
  • Vertical pumps are ideal for the mining industry, chemical plants and more since they have anti-friction bearing. This mechanism is safeguarded from water sprays owing to their location being in the motor above the pump

Salient Features of the Vertical Centrifugal Pump The vertical centrifugal pump enjoys some salient features over other types, some of which include -

  • High head per stage
  • Heavy-duty impellers and casings
  • High-capacity water intake
  • Low maintenance and downtime
  • Robust designing and operation

Vertical Centrifugal Pump: Limitations and Challenges As the industrial market is witnessing rapid growth, delivering high-power and maintenance-free vertical pumps is the primary challenge for different pump manufacturers. While the vertical centrifugal pump enjoys some significant advantages over other pumps, here are some limitations that can hold it back -

  • Vertical pumps are slowing down by the day. They are not efficient enough to deliver enormous power to remove large volumes of water, viscous fluids, toxic chemicals, sewage and other corrosive liquids
  • Vertical pumps are not as efficient in removing high slurry concentrations, a shared waste product in several industries

The demand for high-pressure pumps that can swiftly eliminate high concentrations of slurry, viscous fluids, chemicals and sewage in processing plants is on the rise.

Final Words Centrifugal pumps have different applications in several industries, which is why they come in different varieties. Depending on your requirements, you must pick one with a decent power rating, power consumption, ability to handle viscous fluids and other factors. This guide will help you understand how a vertical centrifugal pump works and which one to pick for your use case.
