CVMR Corporation and Proteus Systems Inc. in a gathering of chemical industry professionals in Toronto, Canada, recently announced the success of their joint venture in providing a new generation of “control valve/flow sensor” in a “one unit fluid flow control system” used specifically for mining/minerals processing market, from beneficiation of ores to slurry flow control.
Some of the features of this new and disruptive technology are:
• No leak to the environment without the use of dynamic seals.
• No accumulation of particles possible anywhere in the conduit.
• Smooth flow throughout the entire unit.
• Easy to clean the system.
• Energy efficient, offering significant savings in plant operations.
• Far less wiring required to and from the unit.
• Significant savings in piping length compared to conventional approach.
• Flow sensing can be accomplished via highly accurate venturi type or for “dirty” applications an ultrasonic device.
The joint venture combines the global resources and expertise of CVMR in mining and refining, and Proteus Systems’ expertise in design of electro-magnetic devices.
