Capitalizing on a solid knowledge of recycled bath products and their interaction with the pot operation, Fives has been offering global solutions for bath processing units for more than 30 years. Fives proposes innovative technologies to meet pot lines growing expectations in terms of bath quality. From handling and cooling of hot bath to the production of scrap free cover bath at a specific grainsize, Fives’ tailor-made plants are efficient, robust and easy to run. A flexible Bath Processing unit which is: Able to treat any kind of bath according to customer’s needs: cleaning bath, pallets, crust bath, tapped bath… Fitted with specific handling and pre-crushing equipment to accept all types of feeding: skip tilting station, skip lifting unit, belt or apron conveyors, feeding grids and hoppers… Celsios, a dedicated solution for hot bath processing and cooling The hot bath handling and storage before crushing has become the major source of residual fluoride emissions, leading investors and operators to look for solutions to avoid its storage. Fives has developed Celsios, a dedicated solution for hot bath processing and cooling ahead of the crushing operation without lengthy storage. A specific hot crust lump breaker (up to 900°C feed temperature), feeds a low speed metallic pan conveyor used simultaneously for bath cooling and bath transportation up to the feeding hopper of the crushing unit. Hooding and ducting network collect the fumes to send them to one of the GTC’s for efficient fluoride abatement.
