Positive displacement pumps are used in a myriad of applications across multiple industries. Users have found them to be the solution to many specific pumping challenges; however, due to their size, simplicity and ruggedness, they often are not as well understood as other pump types.
A wide range of metering pumps has been developed to fit the diverse applications in process engineering.
The City of Hammond, Ind., recently received a large prefabricated housed booster system that will increase flow capacity for nearby residents by pressurizing the potable water from Lake Michigan. pump system optimization
When assessing the vast chemical industry, it is usually not advisable to deal in generalities. However, as a base for the market's examination, Beth Beloof and Marianne Lines, authors of the recent book Transforming Sustainability Strategy into Action: The Chemical Industry, provide a base for the market's examination: "The impact of the chemical industry is felt in every area of commerce, as chemicals are ubiquitous in all value chains and affect all ecosystems, no matter how seemingly pristine, on the planet."
Specific speed is a concept developed for water turbines1 in 1915, which was later applied to centrifugal pumps (Stepanoff, 1948). Specific speed is a way to “normalize” the performance of these hydraulic machines.
