A new type of equipment can quickly detect organic pollutants in water

The School of Geography, Earth and Environment at the University of Birmingham, together with a safety training system (STS) company engaged in the production of instrumentation, has developed a device for use on the riverside.

Using the fluorescent method, organic water pollution including sewer sewage and landfill disposal can be detected. Fluorescence is a natural phenomenon that uses a special substance to absorb and emit light. Using this method can also find agricultural wastewater, and determine its composition.

Dr. Andy Baker, head of research at the University of Birmingham, said: “At first, I was studying the fluorescence of surface water in caves, but then I discovered that there were different types of fluorescence in river water. Then we analyzed that river water. The fluorescent fingerprints of the contained substances can be used to analyze contaminants in water."

Dr. Baker added: “Generally speaking tests are performed in the laboratory and it takes five days. It is crucial to ensure that water quality does not occur when water samples are sent from the riverside to the laboratory. So we want to be able to develop a device that can be placed near the river and that can immediately test the water sample.Now we can extract the water sample, detect the fluorescence and identify the type of pollutant.We successfully moved the laboratory to riverside."

It is hoped that this type of equipment will become a life-saving device for disaster reduction, especially for areas with a large population and relatively limited water resources. Detecting whether the water source meets drinking conditions is just one of the many uses for this device. Environmental protection organizations and business groups can also benefit from this, especially those institutions that need to quickly identify sources of water pollution.

Heavy Duty Chain Conveyor

Heavy-range of chain conveyors are developed to convey materials like cement, power coal, gypsum, potash, crushed chalk and lime type of products where material is moderately abrasive and flow able.

Forged, hardened chain links with welded crossbars are used to convey materials which run on manganese wear rail.

Conveyor casings and bolt holes are cut using CNC laser machines and folded. The conveyor is off fabricated construction with bottom, side and covers plates are fitted with butt straps for easy removal.

Chain conveyors can be situated in a horizontal, inclined, or in vertical arrangement. Conveyor`s bottom and side panels are made off 5mm folded sheets with 3mm top cover. Drive and tail units are fitted with flanged bearing housings with seals in standard design and Plummer bearing housing is available as an option.

They have special designed easy removable type split sprockets for tail and head end assembly.

Tail end comes with adjustable screw take up with spring washers. Dust tight and high temperature conveyors are available on request.
