Correct preparation of bentonite suspensions
The production process is decisive for the quality of a bentonite suspension. Various factors have to be taken into account such as mixing and swelling times and the mixing sequence for the addition of more than one additives. It is often necessary to treat the mixing water with soda ash. In order to produce a well dispersed suspension, high‐speed mixers are necessary, which put high shear energy into the mixing process. After mixing, various swelling items are to be observed, depending onj the bentonite product. In order to be able to provide the necessary volumes at the right time for a pipe jack, the swelling tank must be sufficiently large.
