Introduction of Orbinox EB Series Bidirectional Knife Gate Valve

The opening and closing part of the knife gate valve is the gate. The movement direction of the gate is perpendicular to the direction of the fluid. It is different with conventional pressure seal gate valve. The knife gate valve cuts off the medium by means of a blade-shaped gate that can cut fiber materials. The gate has Two sealing surfaces, the two sealing surfaces of the most commonly used mode gate valve form a wedge shape, the wedge angle varies with the valve parameters, usually 5°, the gate of the wedge type knife gate valve can be made into a whole, called rigid gate It can also be made into a gate that can produce slight deformation to improve its manufacturability and make up for the deviation of the sealing surface angle during processing. This gate is called an elastic gate.

Orbinox EB Series Two-Way Knife Gate Valve Technology Meets the Most Demanding Slurry Feedstock and Digestion Applications

The Orbinox Model EB Knife Gate Valve is a two-way valve designed for general industrial service applications. The design of the valve body and valve seat ensures that suspended solids will not block.

Orbinox specializes in valve, automation and engineering solutions for all industries, but they are very much in focus and motivating due to the ever-growing waste-to-energy sector. Waste-to-energy is an exciting field because its economic, agricultural and environmental advantages and benefits are enormous. Orbinox has extensive experience in supplying valves to the AD and biogas markets and has a large installed base in plants around the world, with reliable references from most major technology providers.

The two-way EB model with vulcanized nitrile (or EPDM) seat and zero cavity has proven to be the best knife gate valve on the AD market.

Anaerobic digestion is a collection of processes by which microorganisms break down biodegradable materials in the absence of oxygen. The method is used for industrial or domestic purposes to manage waste and/or produce fuel. The biogas produced by the process is composed of methane, carbon dioxide and other "pollutant" gases and is widely used as a renewable energy source.
