Selection of pumping pumps for styrene and butyl acrylate

2024-04-03View Original

Thread Content

Styrene and butyl acrylate are supplied in 200L drums; due to the risk of polymerization, a vacuum pumping system is employed in the design. It has been found that the vacuum extraction process produces a strong odor, and the loss rate is likely to be high as well. Is there a good method for material extraction? Manufacturers of styrene and butyl acrylate, or experienced colleagues, please offer some suggestions.

A closed-loop pumping system, such as a diaphragm pump or rotor pump, equipped with sealed pipelines and exhaust treatment devices, can be considered to reduce material loss and odor dispersion. It is necessary to select the appropriate material and pump type based on the properties of the material and production requirements. .

Mainly, since the material remains in the pump body and pipes, it tends to aggregate on its own; moreover, as the material is drawn from plastic tanks, the pump needs to have self-priming capability, which is why a lot of consideration is given to this aspect.

A self-priming diaphragm pump can be used; such pumps have a strong self-priming capability, allowing them to handle the pumping of materials stored in barrels. Moreover, diaphragm pumps exert less shear force on the materials, which reduces the likelihood of material aggregation. Furthermore, diaphragm pumps are easy to clean, which helps to effectively reduce residues in the pipes and within the pump. When selecting materials, compatibility with styrene and butyl acrylate must be considered. At the same time, the pump’s flow channel design should facilitate cleaning and maintenance to prevent self-polymerization caused by residual material. .

Strictly speaking, sampling is not allowed, especially for Category A (I can’t remember; there seem to be relevant regulations in recent years)

For self-priming magnetic pumps, it depends on the actual operating conditions

Stainless steel self-priming shielded pumps are too expensive. What are some brands of stainless steel self-priming gear pumps that offer good value for money? Considering the effects of static electricity, plastic self-priming pumps should not be used.
