Responding to the needs of the ever-growing Anaerobic Digestion industry, Hycontrol has introduced the new PFRC Automated Antifoam Dosing panel to monitor levels of foam inside a digester, reactor, tank or other vessels, and automatically dose antifoam chemicals as required to control it at a safe level.
Systems such as this are becoming a requirement for many insurers to cover AD sites; by using Hycontrol's advanced SureSense+ foam monitoring and patented IMA sensing® control technology, users can accurately control their use of defoaming chemicals and prevent the risk of overspills causing damage and ruining processes.
The system detects and differentiates between aqueous foam and liquid. Once the foam is detected it can be controlled by utilising one of a selection of control algorithms; the controller can activate the panel's dosing pump to either keep the foam at a fixed level or to reduce the foam height as required. Users can select proportional or delay-and-shot algorithms for antifoam dosage.
