Union Process, Inc. built a production-sized QL-25 Circulation Attritor for a global environmental remediation company based in California.

“We have a great deal of experience creating Attritor circulation systems for environmental remediation, including soil and water,” said Brian Li, sales manager for Union Process.

The Attritor is powered by a 40-HP motor with a variable frequency drive (VFD). The drive is installed in a 4 x 12 wash-down duty enclosure. Both the 28-gallon stainless steel grinding tank and the 250-gallon stainless steel pre-mix tank are jacketed for cooling. The premix system includes a turbine mixer featuring two axial flow turbine blades powered by a 3-HP inverter duty motor. The module is programmed to display motor frequency (Hz), agitator RPM and the motor HP being used. All necessary plumbing is included in the system.
