No Brasil, a indústria de processamento de carne e aves tem uma grande participação no mercado, de forma que soluções eficientes podem trazer muitas vantagens para esse setor. Por conta da demanda e da necessidade de confiabilidade, as bombas pneumáticas de diafragma são excelentes alternativas, podendo lidar com sangue, gordura e resíduos. Esse tipo de processamento apresenta diversos desafios, como o entupimento das bombas com sólidos e outros resíduos.
Veja a seguir algumas aplicações das bombas pneumáticas de diafragma no processamento de carnes e aves.
Quais os principais problemas enfrentados nesse setor?
Blood collection and transfer
· Due to the presence of solids, some residues may be trapped in the pump;
· To ensure safety and cleanliness, collection areas and passageways need to flow without backsliding;
· Blood has abrasive properties that can cause wear on the walls and chambers of the pumps;
· The shear that some pumps cause can create foam and damage products.
Scalding, plucking and depilation
· Hair and feathers can accumulate and clog conventional pumps;
· Accumulation of hair and feathers in drains;
· Need for efficient and reliable equipment that can pump from clean water to fluids with solids.
organ removal
· Need to separate parts for later use;
· To ensure safety and cleanliness, collection areas and passageways need to flow without backsliding;
· Conventional pumps cannot transfer organs, carcass residues,
Beaks, feet, among others.
processed water
· Due to the previous processes, solids of different sizes end up entering the water flow;
· Gutters, pits and collection areas need to flow continuously;
· It is necessary to have a pump that can transport the collected fluids even with the presence of solids;
· Conventional submersible pumps are difficult to use and maintain.
washing and sanitation
Due to the variety of chemical, caustic and detergent products used in cleaning and sanitation processes, it is necessary to have a highly reliable pump and resistant;
It is necessary to have a pump made of resistant materials;
There is a great risk of electric shock.
Residual waters
Some systems and technologies aimed at water treatment can create a large volume of viscous sludge;
The pumps used in this type of operation must be capable of reliably pumping fluids with different solids;
The pumps used must be able to pump viscous fluids without damage to their structure.
Is there equipment for such a specific demand?
While there are several options for positive displacement pumps on the market, most of them cannot meet the demands of this industry. Pneumatic diaphragm pumps can handle everything from blood collection to wastewater transport efficiently and safely.
These pumps feature:
· Thick and robust chambers that can withstand pumped blood without damage to its structure;
· Bolt-on construction ensures robust, leak-free performance;
· Upper suction and lower discharge for transferring solids.
· Greater flow capacity;
· Does not need electricity to work;
· It is highly reliable and efficient.
