Complete Systems for Solid Sodium Silicate Production

Meibao’s solid sodium silicate production lines use silica sand and soda ash as the main raw materials. The process covers weighing and batching, mixing, high-temperature melting, and cooling and forming. Raw material handling, furnace, forming and control systems can be configured to suit each project.

Designed Around Product Requirements

The batching and melting process is developed around the target SiO₂/Na₂O molar ratio and raw material characteristics. This solution covers product molar ratios of up to 3.6, with specific requirements confirmed during project design.

Configured for Local Fuel Conditions

The combustion system is selected for the specified fuel type and quality. Flue gas heat recovery and treatment arrangements are determined according to the furnace design, operating conditions and local emission requirements.

Coordinated Across the Production Line

Batching, melting, discharge, cooling and forming capacities are matched to the required daily output of finished solid sodium silicate. Equipment layout and maintenance access are planned around site conditions.

Finished Product Collection and Storage

Silica sand and soda ash are batched, mixed and fed into the furnace. High-temperature reactions produce molten sodium silicate, which is then cooled and formed into solid sodium silicate.

This is a typical process flow. The actual equipment configuration and scope of supply follow the project proposal.

Frequently Asked Questions

What information is needed to develop a production line proposal?
For an initial discussion, please provide the project location, target daily output of finished solid sodium silicate, product molar ratio or intended application, available fuel and site conditions. Product specifications that have not yet been defined can be discussed during proposal development.

During the design stage, additional information is needed on raw material composition, impurities, particle size and moisture content; finished product form, size and bulk handling or packaging requirements; and site and utility conditions. Please also indicate whether a downstream dissolving system is required.
How is a suitable fuel selected?
Natural gas, heavy fuel oil or light diesel oil may be selected according to project conditions. Fuel selection considers local cost, quality, supply reliability and emission requirements, and the combustion system is designed accordingly. Requirements for multiple fuels or fuel switching must be specified and assessed separately.
Can the line be extended to produce liquid sodium silicate?
Yes. Dissolving, adjustment and filtration systems can be added separately. Please specify the molar ratio of the solid feedstock and the target molar ratio, concentration and output of the liquid product. Adding water primarily adjusts concentration; changing the molar ratio requires a separately defined formulation and adjustment process.
