What are the solutions for the Texaco gasifier issue of the slurry pump not delivering the required flow rate? I’d like to ask everyone how to handle this in the fastest, best, and safest way? Recently, our plant has been experiencing problems with the slurry pumps not delivering the required flow rate.
Which factory are you from? What type of slurry pump does your factory use? Please be specific. Check for diaphragm oiling and exhaust issues, and see if the inlet and outlet check valves are blocked; if they are, disassemble them and clean them
According to what he said, it’s likely that the inlet and outlet valves are stuck, i.e., the so-called cylinder gaskets. The key issue is to resolve the problem of large particles in the slurry tank; such large particles need to be eliminated. When there is a cylinder cushioning issue in our company, the solution is basically to shut down the machine
Control the quality of the coal slurry well; without using a separate cylinder, that is, with just a backing cylinder, it is possible to carry out knocking operations or to discharge the fluid at the inlet – this usually solves the problem
I completely agree with the view from floor 4. Improving the quality of coal slurry is the best way to address practical problems
If it’s a single-cylinder unit and it’s not possible to conduct an inspection, one can tap on the inlet and outlet valve areas; the control panel can then be used to increase the speed of the slurry pump. If that doesn’t work, the only option is to shut down the machine.
The coal slurry pump does not operate properly; this is mainly related to the issue of grinding coal into slurry. It is necessary to check whether the drum screen of the coal grinder is suitable, whether any large particles have fallen into the coal slurry, and whether its iron removal device is functioning properly
Control the temperature of the gasification furnace to prevent accidents. Increase the speed of the slurry pump; on-site, tap on the non-regulating cylinder valve
