Continuous acid purification for aluminum anodizing
In aluminum anodizing and copper refining industries, impurities in process acids can lead to reduced product quality and increased operational costs. Maintaining a consistently low level of contaminants is crucial for efficient and cost-effective operation.
Continuously removes dissolved metals from process acids
The APU® Acid Purification Unit by Kovalus Separation Solutions is designed to continuously remove dissolved metals from process acids such as hydrochloric, acetic, nitric, phosphoric, and sulfuric acids. This unit is ideal for maintaining low levels of contaminants in aluminum anodizing and copper refining operations. By reducing the frequency of acid purchases and lowering waste neutralization costs, the APU® unit significantly improves overall process efficiency. The system also aids in the recovery of waste aluminum, which can be transformed into marketable by-products. With consistent acid quality and a reduction in waste sludges and salt concentration, the APU® unit ensures a reliable and efficient purification process.
