Application of pneumatic diaphragm pumps in transporting titanium dioxide
Thread Content
I would like to ask the experts: are there any companies that use pneumatic diaphragm pumps for transporting titanium dioxide? How is it being used? Could you recommend manufacturers of equipment with reliable quality?
Combined with pneumatic conveying, it should be possible to achieve the most economical solution.
I have been aware of some powder diaphragm pumps that come equipped with air delivery interfaces in their design; I’m not sure if this is the concept you are referring to
It’s simply a modified version of the previous pneumatic diaphragm pump, and it can indeed be used to transport powders. However, the specific gravity of the powder needs to be taken into consideration, and its efficiency is rather average; for higher flow rates, other methods should be considered.
Producing titanium dioxide is a real pain in the neck – as a medium, it undergoes photolysis in contact with air and water, resulting in the formation of hydrochloric acid; this acid mist is generated in the workshop. If things don’t progress quickly, then preparation for corrosion is necessary, as its corrosive nature is quite strong. Most of the factories for this product are in Yunnan. If you’re dealing with powder transportation, there are pneumatic conveying systems whose power source is nitrogen or compressed air; in your case, it should be possible to use only nitrogen.
It’s completely possible; a pneumatic diaphragm pump with a sealed ball valve will do. Contact me – Shengbaidé Pneumatic Diaphragm Pumps
