R&D Project: OEM Baghouse for Tablet, Pill, and Pharmaceutical Manufacturers

Good afternoon,
For the project of the Customer's facility, Production and Warehouse Building No. 2, intended for the placement of finished pharmaceutical production, three cyclones are required.

We need a commercial proposal for the following equipment:
1) System with Cyclone C1 – 4500 m³/hour
Captures air through a local ventilation exhaust in the following rooms:
1.15, 1.16, 1.17, 1.19, 1.21, 6.2, and 6.3
2) System with Cyclone C2 – 3000 m³/hour
Captures air through a local ventilation exhaust in the following rooms:
2.8, 2.9, 2.11, and 2.12
3) System with Cyclone C3 – 2500 m³/hour
Captures air through a local ventilation exhaust in the following rooms:
3.6, 3.13, and 3.14

Dust composition:
Escitalopram oxalate – total waste: 0.05 kg
Lactose monohydrate – total waste: 0.48 kg
Microcrystalline cellulose – total waste: 0.18 kg
Croscarmellose sodium – total waste: 0.033 kg
Low molecular weight povidone – total waste: 0.018 kg
Corn starch – total waste: 0.016 kg
Magnesium stearate – total waste: 0.008 kg
Hypromellose – total waste: 0.03 kg
Macrogol 400 – total waste: 0.005 kg
Dimethicone 100 – total waste: 0.002 kg
Titanium dioxide – total waste: 0.0065 kg
Spironolactone – total waste: 0.1 kg
Lactose – total waste: 0.3 kg
Captopril – total waste: 0.1 kg
Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) – total waste: 0.02 kg
In rooms 1.21, 2.12, and 3.6, three technical processes take place simultaneously, as described in the attached file.

Good afternoon,
I have forwarded your message to the customer:
According to the data provided by the technologists, the dust from the process is microscopic (0.25 to 10 μm) and ultramicroscopic (less than 0.25 μm).

↩ Even knowing the dust particle size, it is difficult to select an effective cyclone in your case, as the concentration of suspended particles in the air is very low. The fewer the particles, the less effective the cyclone operates.
Therefore, dust collectors with bag filters should be selected, as they combine the functions of a cyclone and filtration.
Filtration units have a collection hopper and a filter cleaning (purging) system, so we will be using them.

Could you offer us these units?

Fans are required as part of the system. The resistance before the units is 700 Pa, and after the units, it is 100 Pa. The equipment will be installed in a heated room. The room height from slab to slab is 3900 mm.

Good afternoon,
1. System with Cyclone C1 – 4500 m³/hour
We recommend our modification, Blizzard 5 New.
2. System with Cyclone C2 – 3000 m³/hour
We recommend our modification, Blizzard 3 New.
3. System with Cyclone C3 – 2500 m³/hour
We recommend our modification, Blizzard 3 New.

The fans have been selected with a margin.
We will adjust the height of these filters by reducing the hopper and making a box on wheels, similar to the current setup at your client's facility.
The air discharge to the side will also be implemented.
By the way, these filter modifications are currently in stock, manufactured, and awaiting shipment to clients. You can visit and see them—they look very technologically advanced. We are very proud of these modifications.

I am attaching the drawings for the filters, but without the fans for now.
How would you suggest positioning the fans? Should they be placed next to the filters?

Good afternoon, yes, nearby. We will place everything in one room.

Good afternoon,
I have reviewed the drawings. The height is 3900 mm without the screed and other floor coverings. Is it possible to make a version with the cyclone's air intake (discharge) directly on the side, so we don't have to install ducts above it?

Good afternoon,
Could you also provide the specifications of the selected fans for filling out the data tables and passing the assignments to the electrical department? Additionally, we need the weight load information.
