Improving the circulating water quality of a Paint Booth
In a paint booth, the most common pain area is paint collection in the pit with the paint coagulation process. One of the largest manufacturers of automotive plastic components was facing issues of poor sludge quality, high consumption against sludge out, and poor water bath life. The main challenge was a high influx of paint into the circulating water with an average of 550 liters of paint consumption with a paint overspray of about 60%. The expectation was to improve the coagulation system's overall efficiency with maximum paint removal from the water paint mix from the pit.
Zavenir paint shop technical experts identified the problems with the existing chemicals supplied by a popular German company. The sludge formation was poor, resulting in inferior flocculation of paint & turbid water quality in the system. The customer was recommended a combination of ISOGOL 550, a neutral coagulation agent liquid, and T 400-96, an all-purpose flocculation agent.
