Operating independently as a publicly held company since\u00a01999, OMNOVA Solutions Inc. has over 100 years of polymer and manufacturing experience dating back to its time with The General Tire and Rubber Company. OMNOVA prides itself on strong core values and an inventive spirit.<\/p>\n

OMNOVA works to create innovative polymeric materials for a host of applications. At one of their facilities, during the process of creating the polymer as well as other substances, their original baghouse dust collector was not cleaning well with the sticky materials. This particular facility takes emulsions from water and turns them into polymer powder.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe main reason [to install a\u00a0Farr Gold Series<\/a>] was that their old baghouse could not clean its bags well enough when they ran their stickier drilling fluid loss resins,\u201d Len Iacco Jr. of Rolen and Associates said. \u201cThe bags would be completely caked up and ruined after about 12 hours of runtime. Over the years, drilling fluid resins have gone from one or two of their products to about 75 percent of their production, so running them through the fluid bed faster helps them out a lot.\u201d<\/p>\n

The building in which the dust collecting and process handling take place spans three 30-foot high floors.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe had a very old baghouse that took up our entire tower and blew\u00a0down in a reverse shake off that was too gentle to get the product out of the filters,\u201d Mike Adamson, Process Engineer for OMNOVA, said. The polymer OMNOVA creates can be used for a variety of things including oil drilling fluids. Oil wells use the polymer product in porous rocks. The fluid goes into the cavities in the rock so the oil will spill out instead of seeping back into the rock.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur polymer can also be used to make rubber reinforcement stronger. Sometimes, our polymer is used in toners to help bind black ink onto paper,\u201d Adamson said. \u201cThe same process is used for drying the polymer, no matter what the polymer is used for in the end.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

The GS36 was built on-site, piece by piece, in order to fit in a small space located 90 feet in the air.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

\u201cWe have an unorthodox way of using the GS36 Farr Gold Series industrial dust collector<\/a>,\u201d Adamson said. \u201cOur dust collector is hooked up to a fluid bed dryer and helps us dry our materials. The product moves through heated air produced by a supply fan. Our unit pulls the dust-filled air into the collector and drops the dust from the product down to where we will reuse it. Our dust is not waste, but a product that is reintroduced. Clean air is then discharged.\u201d<\/p>\n

Chris Fluharty of Camfil APC and Iacco worked to develop the GS36 for OMNOVA with Dura-Pleat Aluminized filters<\/a> due to the stickiness of the polymer.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe challenge was the best part of this project,\u201d Iacco said. \u201cThe unit shipped in nothing more than all pieces and parts\u2014no side panels or roof panels. All frames and every item had to be shipped disassembled in probably 250 pieces to be able to place the equipment on the fourth floor through a service shaft 50 inches wide and 80 inches long. Even the hopper had to be split and built in sections to get this to the required location. This is yet another situation only the Farr Gold Series can handle. No other manufacturer has the capabilities to ship a collector broken down into this many pieces and parts.\u201d<\/p>\n

The unit was also created with multiple accessories to handle the polymer at OMNOVA like an explosion protection system for ST2 dust. Explosion venting was placed through the wall to the atmosphere and VST back blast dampers for ST2 dust were installed to protect the dryer.<\/p>\n

\u201cCamfil APC worked a lot with us on fitting the Farr Gold Series to our building,\u201d Adamson said. \u201cBut the Camfil APC Farr Gold Series fit right where we needed it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rolen and Associates installed almost all of the Farr Gold Series because completely assembling a dust collection system as large as the GS36 at OMNOVA could cause mishaps, Iacco explained. However, his team installed the entire Farr Gold Series one piece at a time with no problems.<\/p>\n

Once the unit was fully installed, HemiPleat Synthetic filters were used at first. \"We started with the HemiPleat Synthetic but then moved to Dura-Pleat Aluminized. The Dura-Pleat Aluminized has larger pleats and is a little more robust,\u201d Adamson said. \u201cWe\u2019ve had these for about eight months and haven\u2019t needed to replace them yet.\" After a complicated installation and finding the perfect filter, OMNOVA Solutions, Rolen and Associates, and Camfil APC are all pleased.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe customer is happy and the equipment\u2014well, it\u2019s doing more than anyone expected to keep the product flowing with little to no downtime, increasing the output for the entire facility,\u201d Iacco said. \u201cThat\u2019s a win-win for the customer and Camfil APC!\u201d<\/p>\n

The GS36 was fitted to the building at OMNOVA, which many competitors would not comply with, according to Adamson of OMNOVA.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
