Pumping Viscous Materials Just Became More Efficient. Here’s How.

Pumps in treatment plants are easy to take for granted amid all the high-technology equipment involved in the processes. Pumping of viscous materials like sludges and biosolids can be challenging: Key attributes include consistency, reliability energy efficiency and long service life.Progressive cavity pumps are a common choice for pumping a wide range of treatment plant waste slurries. Vogelsang has offered its CC Series progressive cavity pumps since 2014. Now the company has introduced the HiCone progressive cavity pump series in capacities from 30 to 1,400 gpm.These pumps employ a conical rotor-stator geometry in which a simple external adjustment can advance the
