Chemineer announces NEW JT-2 Impeller

The NEW Chemineer JT-2 Impeller has been designed for a difficult application - blending high viscosity and non-Newtonian fluids.   The JT-2, a transitional flow impeller, is specially engineered for situations where conventional turbines have lost their efficiency due to viscous effects, but you don't yet need a close clearance impeller. The JT-2 provides up to 50% reduction in power draw for the same blending performance compared with competitive impellers.

How can Dosing Technology improve your Pumping Process?

Almost no pumping process does not use "dosing"  in some way.  Dosing technology is used for the production of chemicals and products as well as for their economic and ecologically beneficial application in manufacturing industries. A significant number of users of dosing technology are waterworks and sewage treatment plants, as well as public swimming pools water conditioning. The spreading of dosing technology to increase the quality and economic efficiency of processes requires more information and training on “dosing technology“to achieve optimum results.
