Mining
Chemical Treatment
Depending on the mineral mined‚ various chemicals can be added to remove contamination from the desired mineral. An example of this is sulfuric acid addition within a gold mine. This process typically occurs within the treatment plant or station. The chemicals used for treatment vary greatly and operators or designers should consult the manufacturer to make sure that the pump and all components are compatible with the pumped liquid.
CIRCOR‚ through the Allweiler brand‚ offers centrifugal pumps according the DIN standards. When choosing a centrifugal pump‚ operators and engineers should take note of the pressure or head‚ viscosity‚ flow rate as well as the NPSHr. In a centrifugal pump‚ NPSHr varies as a function of flow‚ which is determined by pressure.
