What pump should be chosen for transporting 50% Caso4 from the citric acid plant?
Thread Content
Dear experts, at the citric acid plant, the current operating condition involves transporting a 50% CaSO4 solution, with a flow rate of around 10 cubic meters and a head of 20 meters. Could you please recommend an appropriate pump for this purpose? Some have suggested using the DT series desulfurization pumps used in wet flue gas desulfurization, made of material A49. I’m not sure if this is suitable, whether it can handle the requirements, and how long it will last under normal operation Is there a better dedicated pump for such operating conditions? Could you please recommend some? I’d be very grateful!
It is necessary to verify your process parameters: the corrosivity of the solution, the presence of particles, flow rate, head, NPSH, etc. Based on this, the pump material can be selected, and then the pump itself can be determined
After determining data such as the density, solid content, particle size, and temperature of the calcium sulfate solution, one can then decide what type of pump to use.
The density is 1300–1400 KG/M3, with a CASO4 solid content of 50%; the particle size is around 1–2 mm. The normal operating temperature is 50 degrees Celsius, with a maximum of 70 degrees Celsius – please refer to this information
The density is 1300–1400 KG/M3, with a CASO4 solid content of 50%; the particle size is around 1–2 mm. The normal operating temperature is 50 degrees Celsius, with a maximum of 70 degrees Celsius. The flow rate is 10 cubic meters per hour, the head is 20 meters, and the cavitation threshold is 4 meters. Please refer to this information
Based on your operating conditions, the DT series desulfurization pumps with material A49 will work
Thank you for your guidance, expert! Additionally, could a material lined with rubber be used? And from the perspective of durability, which is better – this material or all-metal pumps like A49? Thank you
