An Trealamh ST & teicneolaíocht (STET) separator offers benefits to a wide range of industries and products. The STET separator is entirely dry, éilíonn aon uisce nó mar cheimiceáin. The separator consumes only a small amount of electrical energy, which is used to operate the belt motors. The STET separator consumes between 1-4 kWhr per ton of feed processed, depending on the density of the powder processed. The separator is easily permitted, as the only emissions control device required is a dust collector for nuisance dust. Often, there is little or no pre-processing required for feed material to the separator other than size reduction to the appropriate particle size. Unlike other electrostatic processing equipment, high temperature thermal pre-treatment is not necessary.
ina theannta sin, the separator design is relatively simple and compact. A machine designed to process up to 40 tonna in aghaidh na huaire (density dependent) is approximately 30 ft (9 m) fada, 5 ft (1.5 m) leathan agus 9 ft (2.8 m) ard. Is iad na crios agus rollóirí a bhaineann na codanna ach amháin ag gluaiseacht, making maintenance both simple and infrequent. The electrodes are stationary and are composed of a highly durable material.
