How pigging works?
In its simplest form, a pigging system consists of a solid projectile or plug (the ‘pig’) with a diameter slightly larger than the pipeline or tubing that is transporting the liquid. Pigging works by introducing this pig into the pipeline and pushing it through the pipe. Sometimes it is introduced manually but more commonly automatically. Pigs are introduced, housed and returned using pig launchers and pig receivers. After pigging, liquid is then collected or continues being processed.

F&Q:
Q1: What can pigging system do in pipeline?
A: BJVP Pigging System can use the pig to clean the pipe line. There is no redidue and contamination between the different kind of liquid sharing the same pipe.
Q2: What is pigging equipment?
A: BJVP pigging equipment includes items such as high finishing pipe Pigging System, pig launcher/ receiver, middle station, pig detectors, pig, etc.
Q3: Where can this pigging system be used?
A: BJVP pigging equipment can be widely used in Lubricants and greases, paints and varnishes, special chemicals, perfumes and other industry applications.
Q4: How do pigs clean the pipelines?
A: Pig is pushed by forced air from the launcher to receiver, so the product and any residues in pipeline will be pushed out of the pipeline by pig.
