The output from the bucket washing machine is then fed into the input side of dewatering screen. With the help of high power vibro motors attached to the roof of the dewatering screen creates the necessary vibration for the sand to lose its water content, so that the correct moisture ratio of 2% is evenly maintained.
washing was carried out in four cycles and then the waste foundry sand was kept for drying in environ- mental conditions for two days. A decrease in strength about 1.6% and 5.7% was observed for ...

EPA estimates that approximately 2.6 million tons of spent foundry sand is beneficially used outside of foundries annually, with iron, steel and aluminum sands representing 96 percent of the foundry sands that are beneficially used. Currently, only about 14 percent of those sands are beneficially used in soil-related applications.
RAPID SAND WASHER (Type N) (cont'd) IV. TEST PROCEDURE (cont'd) V. VI. (n) Place the beaker in an oven at 105 °C – 110 °C and dry the sand grains. Transfer the sand grains from the beaker to a suitable balance using the brush provided. Weigh and subtract the weight obtained from the original weight of dry sand.
Approximately 100 million tons of waste foundry sands (WFS) are generated annually worldwide by the foundry industry [2]; 6 million tons are produced by around 3000 Eu-ropean foundries [3]. WFS represents about 80% of the waste produced by the foundry industries, and its disposal involves high costs; in most cases, foundries rely …
