Chrome Scrubber

Chrome Scrubber Tri-Mer brand Chrome Scrubber.

Applications/How it Works:

Tri-Mer’s C/E-1 Chrome Scrubber scrubs all chrome, including Cr6 and Cr3, at efficiencies of 99.5% or higher, regardless of input loading.

Our chrome scrubber features a multi-layer polypropylene pad system which operates under negative pressure. The filter apparatus is washed continuously in a nearly closed loop configuration. When chrome levels approach set point (generally 3000 ppm) water is forwarded to chrome recovery, or returned to the plating bath.

Chrome Scrubber

Features:

Tri-Mer C/E-1 chrome scrubber is a low energy system that generates less than 8" of internal static pressure, so energy consumption is extraordinarily low. Total water use is also low: average consumption is 15 gallons per hour for a 20,000 cfm unit.

C/E has no internal moving parts to wear or replace, and chrome can be recovered from both the gas stream and the filter.

Service Life

The standard C/E-1 is constructed of Type 1 PVC, the material of choice for high chrome concentrations. The estimated minimum service life of the filter is five years under continuous use. The system is projected to provide ten years of continuous service before primary maintenance is required.

Materials:

The standard C/E-1 is constructed of Type 1 PVC, the material recommended for high chrome concentrations.

Exterior flanges are PVC, angle welded to housing for standard duct hookup.

Interior flanges are PVC, angle and structural material welded to housing.

Liquid connections are standard PVC threaded, socket or 150# flanged.
