Fox Valve: Vacuum Systems, Solids Conveying, Ejectors, Eductors

Although we have sold Fox eductors for use into just about every industry that requires bulk solids handling, we can list a handful of industries here where Fox eductors have been used for decades,

in many, many installations. We also list relevent Case Studies which you can request, and which describe specific applictions within thsi industry:

Building Products:

Conveying: Phenolic resin and sawdust for chipboard; Gypsum for sheetrock; Pumice powder for grout; Roofing granules;

Cement:

Conveying: CKD at up to 800° F; Portland cement at up to 20,000 lbs/hr; Alternate fuel injection (shredded carpets/plastic/tires//paper; biomass, rice hulls.) Kiln spill at 1600° F

Ceramics/Glass:

Conveying: Silica, Glass Frit, Ceramic dust, Mica

Enviromental:

Conveying: Activated Carbon, Sodium Bicarbonate, Hydrated Lime, Pulverized Limestone into ducts and stacks; Sorbent injection in fluidized bed boilers for SOx reduction

Food:

Conveying: Minor ingredients to mixing/batching (salt, sugar, spices, vitamins, flavorings, etc.); Milk powders from spray dryers; Coffee beans from bulk bags; Powdered tea from screeners; Rice; Breakfast cereal from coating reels; Snack food extrudate from extruders; Frozen peas from IQF; Whole peanuts from sorters;

Foundries:

Conveying: Foundry dust from dust collectors; Innoculant to cupolas; Metal grit from grinding stations; Sand and bond

Hygienic/Diapers:

Conveying: SAP from feeders with uniform flow distribution

Minerals/Mines:

Conveying: Hot copper and nickel alloys at 1000°F from calciners; Mica, talc, quartz, and perlite ore from dust collectors; Copper pellets at 400 lbs/ft3 bulk density;

Plastics:

Conveying: Plastic pellets with reduced angelhair and fines from hundreds of extruders and compounding lines since 1963; 50+ fiberglass filled pellets with Clean-in-place, ceramic-lined wear resistant eductors; Conveying plastic regrind and flakes that jam airlocks in 10 minutes;

Power/Incineration:

Conveying: Coal, coke, and alternative fuels; Additives for inhibiting slag build-up on boiler tubes; sorbents for SOx reduction in CFB's; Activated carbon, lime, calcium carbonate, Trona injection for flue gas desulferization (FGD)
