How did a Chemical Processing Plant Save Nearly 1.8-Million Gallons of Water Annually

Water Waste Reduction Solution

A chemical processing plant wanted to reduce the amount of water it used to process lithium hydroxide used in batteries.  The water waste was linked to packing used on a pump in the hydroxide and limestone slurry process, leaking onto the concrete floor and red clay soil.  Excessive water consumption, constant packing service, EPA concerns and facility structural heaving damage were among the reported issues.

Maximizing Pump Performance for Submersible Wastewater Pumps

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 to Improve Pump System Performance

Want to know how to improve your pump system performance?   The U.S. Department of Energy’s Industrial Technologies Program (ITP) and the Hydraulic Institute (HI) have produced a guide called Improving Pumping System Performance: A Sourcebook for Industry.  Their other guides include: compressed air systems, fan and blower systems, motors and drives, steam systems, and process heating systems.

Have Flow Disruptions Damaged your Pumps?

If you shut a valve on the discharge of many other electric pumps, something is bound to break.  The ABEL EM with the nil-flow control system automatically allows the pump to stop under pressure for added safety and pump protection.

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.

Grundfos Pump Audit Finds Dramatic Savings for 38-Story Condo

A recent Pump audit conducted by Grundfos found multiple opportunties for savings  - eliminating $4500 annual maintenance, 97% power consumption, as well as reducing the noise levels that were troubling residents.  This case study provided by Grundfos covers the problem, the audit findings, and the solution that was implemented.

10 Reasons you need a Fybroc fiberglass pump

Fybroc was the first company to develop a fiberglass reinforced pump - in 1966 - and they have continued to focus on non-metallic pumps for 30 years.  It's their only business!  Here are 10 reasons for you to consider a Fybroc Fiberglass Pump for excellent corrosion resistance in tough applications like pumping of acids, brines, caustics, bleaches, solvents, seawater and a wide range of waste liquids.
