Dual-pig pigging systems are fully automated.

Advantages of Hyperfore Pigging Systems

Our pigging systems offer substantial economic advantages, particularly for plants that transfer diverse products in long and shared pipelines.

Reduce loss: pigging systems recover valuable products remained in the pipeline.
Enhance output: pigging systems translate waste products into useful products and raise yields.
Cost efficiency: by using a single pipeline to transfer different product batches, pigging systems substantially reduce capital expenditure on pipeline construction.
Optimizing space: pigging saves the number of dedicated lines required and thereby save valuable plant space.
Time saving: pigging shortens pipeline cleaning time and product changeover time, thus maximizing uptime.
Environmental compliance: pigging consumes less detergent and consequently generates less COD, which is more environment friendly.

How Do Hyperfore Pigging Systems Work?

Core components: The launcher, the receiver and the pipeline pig are the core components of Hyperfore pigging system.
Launcher function: The launcher typically serves as the housing of the pig, where the pig is accommodated or launched into the pipe.
Operation start: The pigging operation starts after the product transfer process is complete. Initially, the pig is introduced into the main pipe port by the launching station.
Propulsion: Then the clean compressed air drives the pig to travserse the pipeline, performing the task of pipeline cleaning and product recovery.
Speed control: Operators use the pig speed controller to regulate the air pressure or volume, ensuring the pig moves at a constant speed. The propellant could be water or product itself.
Completion: Once the pig arrives at the receiver, the residue product in the line will be recovered to the destination, and the pipeline is almost thoroughly cleaned.
Retrieval flexibility: The pig can be either retrieved from the receiver, or returned to the launcher, depending on the pigging process design.
Cleaning process:
- If the pig is retrieved from the receiver, it will be cleaned outside the line, marking the conclusion of a complete pigging cycle.
- If the pig is returned to the launcher, it will be cleaned via CIP, as part of the system.
Control modes: The entire pigging process can be fully automated, semi-automatic, or manual.
