Good Day Betsy:

Again my apologies for the delay in responding, I w as attending the NW Food Manufacturing and Packagin g Expo in Portland Oregon last week, thank you for your patience.

I have constructed for you a range of budgetary cos ts for our screens and some information regarding f low, I have attached in PDF format the various screens recommended and sold by IPEC for th e seafood industry. One note, we would typically re commend a wedgewire screen with 0.020" (0.508) slot size which is smaller than the requested 0.7mm (0.0276"). All the flow data in the following e-mail and in the brochures is based on 0.020" slot size.

Most of the screens we supplied to the Alaskan fish ing industry have had 0.020" wedgewire (0.5mm). Onl y on severely contaminated flow (e.g. boat unloading water) do we offer the larger 0.030" - 0.040" (075 - 1.0mm) slot size. Recently we supp lied screens in the 0.012" - 0.015" (0.3 - 0.4mm) slot size for the removal of smaller solids. The 0.012" - 0.015" (0.3 - 0.4mm) slot size is close to the smallest opening that can be used with wedgewire in the fish process application

.

to Chuck Frappier, AScT

Dear Mr. Frappier:

I left a voice mail for you earlier today. Here is a little more information about what I'm looking fo r. Colleagues of mine talked to you at WEFTEC last fall about using wedgewire screens to s eparate seafood waste from wastewater prior to its discharge. I am looking for some cost quotes for screens. These costs will be used by U.S . Environmental Protection Agency to evaluate alter native control technologies for seafood processors located in certain areas of Alaska (Ketc hikan, Petersburg, Juneau, Cordova, Sitka, Seward, on the Kenai peninsula, and possibly Dutch Harbor).

Facilities in these locations include salmon canner ies that run two to three months/year and smaller f acilities that process salmon, halibut, cod, crab, herring, and other fish up to ten months per year. Maximum flows range from 50 to 3,000 gpm of w astewater containing large solids (heads, frames, guts) and smaller solids (scales and waste fragments). I'm looking for costs for screens with 0.7 mm slot size, 304 stainless screen housing.

I'd like to talk with you about which of IPEC's pro ducts are most appropriate for this application and any other information you need to provide a quote. Please give me a call at (703) 633-1612.

# APPLICATIONS • Seafood processing - offal • Pulp & Paper - rejects • Meat & Poultry processing - offal and feathers • Potato processing - flume water 

# FE ATUR ES

• 304 stainless steel co ns tr uc ti on IFO Series of Internally-fed Rotary Screens have cylindrical drums mounted horizontally on four shaft-mounted wheels. The drum rotates at 4-5 rpm and is driven by a top-mounted, TEFC motor, geardrive, stainless steel chain and sprocket. The IFO/P series screening element is a perforated drum with openings ranging from 1/16 to 3/8 inch diameter, and the IFO/W series screening element is a wedgewire drum with slot openings ranging from 0.010 to 0.100 inches. The screen is supported on a tubular frame and is typically applied to flume waters.



# METHOD OF OPERATION The influent enters a short spillway,
which extends into the interior of the drum, where the flow is distributed
onto the sidewalls of the drum. The
solids are retained on the screen surface as the liquid flows radially through the openings. Splash guards direct the liquid filtrate to a central drainage area, and the solids are transported axially, by flights, to the open end of the drum. The rotation of the drum allows the entire screening surface to be continuously, or intermittently washed by a fixed, external spray bar fitted with a bank of spray nozzles.

# IFS SERIES

INTERNALLY-FED ROTARY SCREENS

IFS Series of Internally-fed Rotary Screens is the most versatile unit, applied on high flows with heavy solids loading for industrial wastewaters. The IFS features a modular design, with components bolted to a heavy duty based structure. The screen cylinder can be wedgewire, perforated plate or find mess. The cylinder rotates horizontally on four trunnion wheels and is driven by a TEFC gearmotor and corrosion resistant chain and sprocket arrangement.



# METHOD OF OPERATION The influent enters a headbox, which extends 2/3 the length of the drum, where the flow is evenly distributed onto the sidewalls of the drum. Solids are retained on the screen surface as the liquid flows radially through the openings. Splash guards direct the liquid filtrate to a central drainage area, and the solids are transported axially, by flights, to the open end of the drum. The rotation of the drum allows the entire screening surface to be continuously or intermittently washed by a fixed external spray bar fitted with a bank of fan jet, spray nozzles.

# EXTERNALLY-FED ROTARY SCREENS

RSS Series of Externally-fed Rotary Screens have slotted wedgewire, cylindrical drums that rotate on two pillow block bearings. The screen slot openings range from 0.100 to 0.010 inches. The rotary drum is driven by a TEFC motor fitted to a shaft-mounted gearbox. The RSS has three methods of maintaining clean screen openings. The doctor blade scrapes the solids from the face of the screen surface. The filtrate back washes while exiting the bottom screen and a shower on an automatic cycle washes the screen drum from inside. The RSS is ideally suited for effluents containing high oil or grease loadings.



# METHOD OF OPERATION Raw influent enters a headbox which distributes the flow evenly across the full length of the rear, upper external surface of the rotating drum. As water passes through the screen, solids are retained on the outside of the screen drum and are carried by rotation around to the front of the screen, where they are removed by a fixed doctor blade. The screened water cascades down inside the drum and falls through the bottom, creating a vigorous backwash action. This action, together with the use of internal water sprays, self-cleans the drum on every revolution. 

# FEATURES
• 304 stainless steel construction • unitary frame • wedgewire drum • TEFC motor and shaft-mounted geardrive • headbox, with overflow protection • doctor blade assembly with monel blade • internal spray bar



# OPTIONS
• 316 stainless steel construction • control panel c/w starter & spray bar timer • pneumatic or cam operated doctor blade cleaner • variable speed drive or 2 speed motor

Dear Steve:

Thanks so much for talking with me this afternoon a nd for helping me with costs for Parson wedgewire s creens. I'd appreciate your response by January 20. Please call me at (703) 633-1612 if you have any questions.

Please provide quote for costs for wedgewire screen s for removing solids from seafood processing waste . These costs will be used by U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to evaluate alterna tive control technologies for seafood processors lo cated in certain areas of Alaska (Ketchikan, Petersburg, Juneau, Cordova, Sitka, Sew ard, on the Kenai peninsula, and possibly Dutch Har bor).

Facilities in these locations include salmon canner ies that run two to three months/year and smaller f acilities that process salmon, halibut, cod, crab, herring, and other fish up to ten months per year. Maximum flows range from 50 to 3,000 gpm of w astewater containing large solids (heads, frames, guts) and smaller solids (scales and waste fragments). I understand that installation will req uire plumbing connections, a concrete pad, solids management (hopper, tote, or dumpster) and e lectrical connections for the rotary screens. As we discussed, control systems are not required for these installations.

For the quote, please include the following:

Slot size: 0.7 mm

Screen housing: 304 stainless

Shipping to Seattle, WA (I will estimate costs for barge to each Alaska location)

As laid out in the attached table, for static scree ns, externally fed rotary screens, and internally f ed rotary screens, please provide:

cost

model number

electrical requirements

dimensions

shipping weight

other pertinent specificationsI've attached the matrix both as a Word table and E xcel spreadsheet. Please feel free to modify these as you see fit. I'm providing them to give

you an idea of the range of flows for which I think I'll need to estimate costs.
