How should a pump be selected under such operating conditions?

file:///C:/DOCUME~1/ADMINI~1/LOCALS~1/Temp/ksohtml/wps_clip_image-22758.png The particle size of the slurry should be kept between 0.5 and 5 mm. The slurry (slightly alkaline, with lime as its main component; over 85% of its composition is water) tends to clump together (becoming quite hard) as it is transported from the storage tank to the hopper, which results in difficulties in discharging it. The current method is manual crushing. Clumping mainly occurs on the inner walls of the aggregate tank and on the blades of the tank’s mixer. It is hoped that a suitable device can be installed on the conveyor pipeline to crush these clumped slurries. The speed of the device does not need to be very high (too high a speed can damage the slurry); it is sufficient to break up the clumped slurry. Please recommend a suitable device from your company. Thank you!

A single-screw pump should work; it has been used before to transport relatively hard sludge, with propellers being used to break it up during transportation
