Filtration

GORE® Filtration Products provide optimum performance for the chemicals, metals, minerals, and energy industries in the form of low pressure drop, near zero emissions, and consistent flow rates. We focus on delivering optimum performance through system evaluation, troubleshooting, specific product design, proper application, installation consultation/management, and periodic lab evaluation.

GORE™ Cover System Principle

Take just as much favourably priced nature as possible and as much intelligent technology as necessary. Or more precisely: GORE™ Cover technology. It consists essentially of three components: aeration, control, and a tarpaulin. Brought together in a perfect balance, the three components interact to produce a unique, economical and reliable composting system. In order to provide the essential basic requirements for the aerobic microorganisms, medium pressure aerators are connected to either on-floor aeration pipes or to in-floor aeration ducts. The bigger the throughput of the plant, the more worthwhile the investment in aeration channels, allowing vehicular access and saving on staffing costs. The aerators are controlled by means of oxygen and temperature parameters, for which the necessary data is obtained directly from the main body of the heap using stainless steel probes. The data is fed into the computer and stored there, documenting the course of the operation. Radio-remote monitoring of the controlled composting process is possible. The material is first mechanically prepared and homogenised before being laid on the aeration using wheel loaders. The probes are then sunk into the material to be composted and then the GORE™ Cover is immediately pulled over the body of the heap. Various handling aids are available to make this action easier. It now remains only to fill the fire hose at the edge of the tarpaulin with water to fix it in position and within a few minutes an enclosed system is functioning. Without the cost of any further technical maintenance and without producing any conspicious odours or microorganisms, Nature now sets to work. It is inexpensive and it is in perfect tune ecologically. Three to four weeks later you can open up the heap to find its contents have been thoroughly a decomposed degraded. All you have to do is roll back the tarpaulin onto the winding gear by radio remote control, remove the measuring probes, if necessary withdraw the aeration pipes using the wheel loaders, and place the material e.g. by a winch on the maturation field and to continue biodegradation. With the right equipment and our expertise you can save yourself the bother of watering, turning — and trouble with the neighbours.

A plant of this kind can be installed anywhere in the world within just six weeks.
