Chlorine Liquid Header

Please give a fuller description of what exists, and the reasons behind wanting to make a change.

the change neede in order to make the tank change operation easier by lifting the chklorine scale level and saver

for the existing system it is a water treatment plant

we have one ton chlorine container where we feed chlorine liquid to the system

whis is stainless steel 1" pipe

hope that make it clearer

regards,

In many other operations, the chlorine is delivered in aqueous form as sodium (unusually) or calcium (usually) hypochlorite. Could this be done instead of moving containers of pressurised chlorine liquid around? Calcium hypochlorite is a white powder and has a long shelf life, particularly useful in the context of ships' drinking water supplies.

Sometimes, sodium hypochlorite is generated by electrolysing water that is saturated with sodium chloride, or even seawater. Could this be done instead of moving containers of pressurised chlorine liquid around?

tell me more heat trasnfer is what I do.

you should check with the manufacturer ..sure they have their own standard setting

for my knowledge ...i know liquid header has to be always over the center line of the tank head

and go up as far as it always be in top level over the gas liquid line

correct me if I'm wrong..

The suggestion that you contact the manufacturer has merit. That way you can get an authorative answer to your question. There are some fundamental questions that you don't address.

1) - How is the chlorine gas removed fromt the 1-ton cylinder?

a. - Do you have an eductor used in conjunction with a small booster pump to cause a vacuum to withdraw the chlorine into solution?

b. - Do you have a feeder that is manually adjusted to allow the proper concentration to be discharged.

c. - Do you simply have a valve that you open to discharge the chlorine?

d. - Do you employ some other method for this purpose?

If your withdrawl method is a. or b. the problem could be in the device that you are using to accomplish this. In which case, the manufacturer should definitely be contacted. If you use c. you are operating your system in a very dangerous manner. In each of the above scenarios, a. and b. the devices will shut down the flow of chlorine if the line should rupture or become compromised in any way. Such is not the case with c. This is not a problem to be tackled un-informed. Chlolrine is a very dangerous gas and must be respected. Follow the advice of the previous respondents...get in touch with your supplier.

we have a feeder that is manually adjusted to allow the proper concentration to be discharged.

the chlorine first discharged to the system in liquid state to the evaporator before going to the solution line by eductor and vacum pump

i tried to contact the manufacturer but they said they cant help me as they stopped doing this product 10 yrs ago

I don't know where you are located, but there are many reputable manufacturers of this type of chlorine feed device. It has been a number of years since I was last involved with chlorine feeding equipment, but some of those who were prominent at the time were: Capitol Controls, Regal, Wallace & Tiernan, etc. I am sure if you found a reputable manufacturer they would have a local representative who could instruct you on most anyone's brand of chlorine feeder. Check Google or your local telephone directory. Good luck.

There is a better and cheaper way to control unwanted organisms without the use of chlorine either as a free gas or combined as sodium hypochlorite (with a maximum concentration of 15% bound chlorine). You did not give sufficient particulars for a recommendation.
