SAPONIFICATION AND DRYING PLANT

Batch SWING Saponification Plant

Soap Drying Plant

Brief Process Description


Raw materials are dosed to the Saponification Crutcher(s). Upon completion of the reaction inside crutcher(s), the finished soap is transferred to down-stream equipment. Neat soap, after being filtered, is pumped to the Drying Plant through the Heat exchanger by means of Soap feed pump. Production rate of the plant is determined by the speed of this pump. In case of pure or filled laundry soap production Heat Exchanger is by passed since it is not necessary. This soap is sprayed on the wall of the Atomizer. Conditions inside are such that the sprayed soap dries, cools down, and is immediately scraped off the wall. Evaporated moisture is conveyed through vapour ducts and cyclones to the Barometric condenser where all the vapours are condensed by direct contact with the water from cooling tower. All this water falls, through barometric leg, into the Hot Well . In case of pure or filled laundry soap production vacuum levels obtainable by this vacuum group are not enough. It becomes necessary to use a steam Booster that will guarantee ulterior pressure drop. Booster is also necessary if cooling water available exceeds 26 C. Eventual un-condensable, such as air, are sucked by a Liquid ring Vacuum Pump group . During passage through the Cyclone(s), vapours are separated from entrained soap dust which is gathered at the bottom of the Cyclones where can be collected in a dust drum connected to the bottom of the vessel or transferred from second to first cyclone by Fines Screw Conveyor. From there it is recycled into the Atomizer by another Fines Screw Conveyor. Conditions inside are such that the sprayed soap dries, cools down, and is immediately scraped off the wall. Scrapped soap falls on the worm of the Plodder and is plodded out, in form of continuous bar, engraved by Engraving Rolls and cut by Cutter or in form of noodles to be stocked in the Storage Silo. Overall control and supervision of the plant is performed through the Electric control panel.
