An increasingly high number of industries, from the fine chemicals to the cosmetics industry, are investing on the design and production of nanoparticles, such as metal oxides, in specific reactors. There is a need to recover these very fine powders from the exhaust streams often at high temperature, pressure and moisture.

The very fine particle size precludes the use of mechanical collectors by themselves. The main problem of using barrier filters is product hold-up and breakage of the nanoparticles.

Client's needs include a system to effectively recover the maximum amount of nanoparticles that can operate in continuous and is easy to clean.

Nanoparticles | General Arrangement

Nanoparticles can be produced by an array of fully scaled patent protected technologies. The traditional and most common manufacturing methods are plasma based used to produce simple and complex, multi-component mixed metal oxides.

Dried nanoparticles are usually collected with barrier filters or our Electrostatic Recyclone that separate and collect the dried powder produced in the plasma reactor.

Advanced Cyclone Systems, S.A. (ACS) is a company exclusively dedicated to the development and commercialization of high efficiency cyclone systems, worldwide.
The company works in a very close cooperation with its clients in order to design custom made cyclone systems that really solve their unmet needs.
ACS has grown to be a turnkey project provider in any part of the world, whenever cyclones are part of the solution.

Applications Include
· Particulate Matter (PM) Emission Control in boilers, furnaces and dryers and general dedusting;
· Product (powder) Recovery in the chemical, food and pharmaceutical industries.

In multiple industries stated below, products are manufactured in the powder form. Examples go from milk powders to pharmaceuticals and from fertilizers to nano-particles. The separation of these products from the air after processes such as drying or milling is unavoidable. Multiple industrial filtration systems can be used for that purpose.
Cyclones have the advantage of easily handling a wide range of operating temperatures, pressures and moisture conditions, unlike other dust collectors, e.g. bag filters. By its simple and aseptic design, without any moving parts, cyclones have very low maintenance costs and can be easily and effectively cleaned, minimizing bacteria contamination or product cross contamination.

ACS cyclones can be designed both to increase product yield and to comply with strict particle emission limits, frequently exempting the use of other filters downstream.
