SmartFeed™ Presentation

This slide show provides an overview of the SmartFeed™ chemical conditioning system.

Steps to Success

This slide show demonstrates the SmartFeed™ Steps to Success methodology — advance testing, computer modeling, custom-woven Geotube® containers, real-time monitoring of polymer dosing and full reporting on individual Geotube® container performance.

These slide shows are packaged with the Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer and are contained in ZIP file archives. You’ll need to first extract the files, then use the enclosed viewer (or your copy of PowerPoint) to view these slide shows.

SmartFeed™ Flyer

This four-page flyer is our standard introductory document. It explains the capabilities of the SmartFeed™ system and the three different models available. (0.5 MB)

Steps to Success

A one-page version of the Steps to Success diagram on the left-hand side of this Web page — the methodology used by the SmartFeed™ chemical conditioning process to ensure your project meets expected results. (0.1 MB)

Rapid Dewatering Test (RDT)

Explains the steps in the Rapid Dewatering Test, the first test in the SmartFeed™ Steps to Success methodology, which establishes the proper polymers to use in your project and the baseline dose rate. (0.6 MB)

Pressure-Geotube® Dewatering Test (P-GDT)

The P-GDT test is a small-scale simulation of your dewatering project. This test establishes the baseline parameters used by the SmartFeed™ system — parameters that are adjusted in real-time based on certain changes in project parameters. (0.6 MB)

P-GDT vs. Hanging Bag Test

This document explains the benefit of using the P-GDT test, rather than the traditional hanging bag test, when establishing baseline standards for polymer-assisted slurry dewatering. (0.1 MB)
