Plug Valves for Slurry and High-Solids Service: What Works and What Fails

INTRODUCTION Handling heavy primary sludge, raw grit, lime slurries, or industrial tailings presents one of the most punishing fluid handling challenges in any treatment facility. In these applications, standard valving rapidly falls victim to severe abrasion, chronic clogging, and debilitating torque spikes. A surprising number of facilities experience premature valve failures—sometimes within months of commissioning—simply […]
