Introduction In municipal and industrial water treatment, diaphragm pumps—whether Air-Operated Double Diaphragm (AODD), solenoid metering, or mechanically actuated—are the workhorses of chemical delivery and sludge handling. Yet, they are frequently the source of disproportionate operational headaches. A surprising industry statistic suggests that while chemical feed systems often represent less than 5% of a plant’s capital […]
1. INTRODUCTION In the architecture of municipal and industrial water and wastewater treatment, chemical feed and storage systems function as the critical control points for process efficacy and regulatory compliance. Unlike passive infrastructure, these systems are dynamic, requiring precise manipulation of fluid chemistry to achieve coagulation, flocculation, disinfection, pH adjustment, and odor control. […]
Sodium Hypochlorite Dosing Pump: Essential in Water Treatment and Beyond Introduction Sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) is a widely used chemical compound, predominantly recognized for its application in water treatment, sanitation, and disinfection processes. Given its efficacy, managing the precise dosing of sodium hypochlorite is crucial in preventing over-chlorination and ensuring safe water consumption. The […]
Feed pumps play an essential role in various industrial systems, ensuring the efficient movement of liquids, often under pressure. These pumps are commonly used in settings such as water treatment plants and chemical processing, where precise control over fluid delivery is necessary. Selecting the right feed pump is crucial for maintaining optimal system performance and […]
