blade sluice
A blade sluice (also known as a blade gate or knife gate valve) is a type of sliding valve used primarily for controlling the flow of liquids, slurries, or thick materials in pipelines. It consists of a flat, sharp-edged blade (or gate) that moves linearly across the flow path to open or close the passage. Key Features of a Blade Sluice: Simple Design Consists of a blade, body, and actuator (manual, pneumatic, or hydraulic). Full Bore or Reduced Port Some designs allow full flow when open, while others have a slightly restricted opening. Tight Shut-off The sharp-edged blade provides a strong seal, especially useful for viscous or abrasive media. Low Maintenance Few moving parts make it durable and easy to maintain. Bi-directional or Uni-directional Flow Some models allow flow in both directions, while others are designed for one-way sealing. Common Applications: Mining & Mineral Processing Handling slurries, tailings, and abrasive fluids. Wastewater Treatment Controlling sludge and thick liquids. Pulp & Paper Industry Managing fibrous and viscous materials. Chemical Processing Handling corrosive or high-purity fluids. Food & Beverage Used in hygienic applications where easy cleaning is required. Advantages: Excellent for thick or abrasive fluids Minimal pressure drop when fully open Compact and lightweight compared to other valves Can be automated for remote control Disadvantages: Not ideal for high-pressure applications May wear faster with highly abrasive media Requires proper alignment to prevent leakage Types of Blade Sluices: Manual Blade Gate Valve Operated by a handwheel or lever. Pneumatic or Hydraulic Actuated For automated control. Lined Blade Valve Has a rubber or polymer lining for corrosion/abrasion resistance. Would you like details on a specific type or application?

Venture into the depths of Azeroth itself in this groundbreaking expansion. Face new threats emerging from the planet's core, explore mysterious underground realms, and uncover secrets that will reshape your understanding of the Warcraft universe forever.
The War Within brings so much fresh content to WoW. The new zones are absolutely stunning and the storyline is engaging. Been playing for 15 years and this expansion reignited my passion for the game.
The new raid content is fantastic with challenging mechanics. However, there are still some bugs that need to be ironed out. Overall a solid expansion that keeps me coming back for more.
