Loresco type
SWS is designed for use in impressed
current surface systems. SWS is also suitable
for containerized anode systems and semi-deep
impressed current systems. SWS may be poured
dry or through water or light mud.
Loresco SWS
exhibits a hard, round shape and does not
require tamping because of its ability to go
full density with simple pouring. The bulk
density of SWS is 68 lbs. per cubic foot. The
predominant particle sizing ranges from 1 mm to
5 mm with no particle larger than 12mm.
The manufacture
of SWS is in a highly controlled "hot"
atmosphere which produces a particle surface
with wettable characteristics. This allows SWS
to be freely poured directly into water or
light mud without sacrificing system integrity
due to poorly compacted carbon. Set-up time is
almost instantaneous.
Loresco SWS is
a product designed to be placed in the earth.
According to EPA-approved leachate tests,
SWS meets all purity requirements for
materials utilized in underground burial.
