SECTION 3. PROCESS DESCRIPTION AND PLANT LAYOUT

3.1. Production Technology The unit to be built in Hutsa Goda near Edaga Hamus environs will be a soda lime glass plant using an end port regenerative furnace to produce and melt 60 tons/day of glass. The glass quality will be "Ordinary soda lime glass" homogenous and free form bubbles. The raw materials to be used are silica sand, dolomite limestone/marble, feldspar along with other oxidizing, reducing and coloring agents. The silica sand will be quarried using ripper and blade of caterpillar while the dolomite, limestone and feldspar will be won by blasting and selective hand picking. They will be taken from the quarry face with wheel loaders and transported to the raw material preparation of the plant to be sized, crushed, washed and dried. After passing such sizing and beneficiation processes they will be conveyed to the respective storage and stock pilled. The Soda Ash will be transported by trucks from lake Abyatta or foreign source a separate hall will be used along with other minor ingredients and chemicals. The reclaiming of the materials is through front loaders/stacker reclaimer etc that will dump the material to hoppers and transported to their respective silos. From the silos materials are withdrawn with weigh belt feeders in exactly measured quantities and discharged on to the raw material mixer along with the minor ingredients and discharged to the furnace hopper. On the way crushed cullet feed from weigh feeders will be evenly sprinkled on the batch (mix) to be stored at the furnace hopper situated over the melting furnace. The charging of the mixture to the furnace will be done by a controlled feeding fixing the molten glass withdrawn and feed through a level probe. The furnace will supply energy by burners working intermittently to enhance heat recovery through an end port regenerative system. The molten mass will pass through a throat heated by electrodes to the working end. Apart from the fuel firing the furnace is designed to use the electrical boasting system to increase the output whenever necessary. The molten glass is allowed to be distributed by the distributor to the forhearth to cool down to the necessary temperature. The forhearth are to use electrode heating underneath and radiant above the glass. The glass is fed to the machines by feeders using rotating tubes and reciprocating plungers at the spout. The glass is feed in gob forms by the shear blades that will cut it to the necessary shape and weight. The gobs will be fed through a distributor to the respective sections for operations in single or double gob through deflections and troughs on to the blank mould operating by an electronic timer. The glass is then inverted and
100
finally blown to shape and pushed to the machine conveyor to be feed to the annealing lehr. The bottles are transported by the chain conveyor and cooled. Before they reach the transfer wheel a hot end treatment by spraying Stannic Chloride is applied on the surface to enhance its strength and save in weight. Other treatment equipment at the hot end will be the pill dispenser for increasing chemical durability to pharmaceutical bottles. The bottles will be annealed in their respective annealing lehrs. Products are discharged at the cold end after passing the cold end treatment. Inspection of bottles will be conducted on the single liners by lighted screens and through a gauger and check detector. The packing is manually done at the packing table, however, provision for future packing installation and shrink wrapping is provided. Bottles that need further decoration are diverted to the screen printing to an inline stacker charging the products into the decoration lehr. The decorating department is to be supported by a photo laboratory and screen preparation room.

STATION 02: RAW MATERIAL PREPARATION PLANT

Description The limestone and dolomite quarries are shut down intermittently due to the nature of the mobile quarrying equipment's to be used one at a time. Limestone & dolomite will be quarried by blasting and manually selecting on to wheel loaders and transported by trucks to the raw material preparation plant by 20 ton off high way dump trucks. After crushing the boulders, the crushed materials are transported and sized through screens where the grain size range is stored and stock piled by a stacker. The feldspar will also be delivered by dump truck from the quarry to the crushing plant. This too will be crushed and sized and stored in its appropriate storage by the radial stacker. The crushing and sieving operation being dry will naturally give rise to dust, hence, as a result dedusting equipment and ducts must be installed at each stage were there is dust to avoid contamination. The silica sand is quarried using heavy duty earth moving machines. The preliminary sizing or screening should be done at the quarry post to avoid carrying unutilized materials. The silica is then stock pilled and attrition scrubbed, classified and stacked in the open to dry. The semi - dry material is dried in a rotating kiln and stored separately. The raw material plant Consists of three lines namely; bulk material line, silica line and cullet line. The capacities of these lines must consider future expansion so as to not be a bottleneck. (i) Bulk material line a) Crushing plant: Secondary: cone crushers. Through put: Product size: Primary Product size: Secondary The crushing plant will consist of: - Feed hoppers. - Steel apron feeders - Grisly vibrating feeder - Jaw crusher - Conveyor belts - Bag dust collector, fan and dedusting - Chutes and transport belt conveyor - Steel structure building and civil work.
