Cathode material cost saving in the secondary battery manufacturing process
= Solution with Dust Monitor =

Seconcary battery (often called Rechargeable battery) can be repeatedly used because it's rechargeable.

One of the leading cathode material producers for secondary batteries, who has a lot of factories around the world, installs approximately 40 dust collectors in each factory to collect and reuse raw materials because those raw materials for the process are expensive and valuable.

However, the company used to hold a problem of raw materials leakage from the process due to deterioration of dust collectors or insufficient maintenance.

This raw materials loss was about US$200,000 per every month.

Furthermore, it was also concerned about the problem of air polution.

As a result, large losses due to leakage of expensive and valuable raw materials had become an issue.

 

Important issue is how we can save the losses due to dust leakage.

By installing a dust monitor in the exhaust duct of a dust collector, it is possible to detect dust leaks from the dust collector at a minute level and predict signs of dust leakage.

 

Triboelectric Dust Monitor is the continuous dust concentration measurement instrument focusing on the performance monitoring of dust collector.

It detects dust leakage immediately when it happens and useful for predictive maintenance, labor saving and cost saving.
