Static Mixers for the Marine Industry
Statiflo supply Static Mixers and associated technologies to the marine sector globally.
Recent changes to legislation in the Marine sector by bodies such as the US Coast Guard (USCG) and the International Maritime Organisation are driving innovation in key areas where Static Mixing Techology can be applied.
Due to their proven high level of performance Statiflo Static Mixers can be applied to almost any mixing duty and they are particularly suited to the following Marine based applications.
In assessing the benefits of Statiflo Inline Static Mixers it is important to remember:
- Overall length can be varied to suit space limitations.
- Element geometry can be designed for both high and low head loss systems.
- Large diameter – no theoretical upper limits.
- Elements for rectangular or other unusually shaped ducts and open channels
- Special designs for incorporating in bends, offer space saving and minimal disturbance to piping systems.
- Guaranteed highly efficient mixing.
- No moving parts provide a maintenance free operation.
- Reduction in operational energy costs, as no direct power is required.
- Ease of installation.
- Minimal space requirements with no upstream or downstream pipe lengths required. Providing short control process times in applications where quick process response control is critical.
- Short process chemical dosing control loops provide optimum performance in response to rapidly changing process conditions, as well as reducing chemical costs.
- Available in a wide ranges of sizes and material to suit most applications.
- Each unit is custom designed benefiting from Statiflo’s long term experience in designing and manufacturing static mixers to the highest of standards.
- Total support is provided by highly trained engineers situated in Statiflo regional country offices and a world wide representative network.
Application Examples and Case Studies
Statiflo Static Mixers can be applied as part of the ballast water management/ballast water treatment systems. These systems are designed to remove waterborne organisms present within a vessel’s ballast water to avoid the introduction of non-native and invasive species into new waters.
The Statiflo Static Mixer is a key component of the system as it allows disinfection chemicals to be dosed effectively and efficiently, optimising the dose to ensure minimal quanities of chemical are used – saving expensive chemical generation costs.
With a Statiflo product the disinfection residual can be measured immediately at the Static Mixer discharge. This gives the shortest possible process control loop time – resulting in the very best control for of your Ballast Water Management System.
If you want to ensure that your Ballast Water System is performing at its optimum efficiency and that you are meeting your environemental obligations then a Statiflo Static Mixer is a must in your system.
Statiflo Static Mixers have been used extensively for DeNOx, DeSOx and other Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) applications on land for many years.
The technology is now being applied for scrubbers and exhaust cleaning systems in the marine sector. Statiflo Static Mixers are applied for the makeup of the treatment chemicals as well as being used in the gas scrubbing process itself. Statiflo products help minimise the quantity of chemical dosed and optimise the process to ensure that ships can meet the IMO 2020 requirements for exhaust emissons.
Statiflo has led the development of Static Mixers to optimise municipal
water and wastewater treatment processes worldwide for over 30
years. Providing safe potable water is of the utmost importance to a
ship’s operators. The inclusion of Statiflo Static Mixers in both new
and retrofit treatment packages means you can achieve the following:
- Reduce footprint size of the package
- Reduce chemical dose
- Reduce chemical consumption
- Optimise and reduce process control loop size
- Improve water quality
