This article was originally published on 1/25/2022 and updated on 3/19/2026 Dosing for fertigation systems combines precision fluid handling with irrigation control to deliver nutrients exactly when and where crops need them. Advanced dosing equipment meters fertilizer in proportion to irrigation flow and integrates real-time monitoring of temperature, pH, and …
This Article was originally published on 1/11/2022 and updated on 3/14/2026 Sealless Pumps: Eliminating Leakage at the Source Sealless pumps eliminate dynamic shaft seals, removing one of the most common failure points in rotating equipment. By using magnetic-drive or canned-motor technology, these pumps create a fully contained fluid boundary that …
This article was previously published on 12/20/2021 and updated on 3/9/2026 Sodium hypochlorite pumping systems demand precise material compatibility, stable suction design, and accurate chemical metering to prevent corrosion, vapor lock, and premature equipment failure. Because hypochlorite degrades metals, releases entrained gas, and loses stability under heat, pump selection directly …
Meeting VOC Sustainability Requirements Starts at the Pump Volatile organic compound (VOC) sustainability requirements now influence pump selection as much as flow, pressure, and materials of construction. In oil and gas operations, emissions tracking, regulatory scrutiny, and internal ESG targets have shifted focus toward equipment designs that prevent leaks rather …
Industrial heating and cooling loops control temperature by circulating engineered fluids through pumps, heaters, and heat exchangers under tightly managed hydraulic and thermal conditions. System stability depends on selecting the appropriate heat-transfer medium, maintaining adequate NPSH at elevated temperatures, controlling flow to stabilize temperature differential, and integrating safeguards to prevent …
Why Mechanical Dosing Pumps Still Matter in Modern Process Systems Accurate chemical dosing remains a foundational requirement across industrial, municipal, and utility processes. From corrosion control and water treatment to chemical conditioning, consistent injection rates directly influence process stability, compliance, and equipment protection. While automation and digital control continue to …
Why Digital Dosing Pumps Matter in Modern Process Control Digital dosing pumps are precision chemical metering devices that deliver highly accurate, repeatable dosing under varying operating conditions. They combine the mechanical reliability of positive-displacement pumps with microprocessor-based control, enabling real-time verification, adjustment, and optimization of chemical feed rates. In applications …
Sealless magnetic drive pumps represent a critical technology in process industries where leakage, emissions, and maintenance risk must be minimized. By eliminating dynamic shaft seals, traditionally the most failure-prone component in rotating equipment, sealless mag drive pumps significantly reduce downtime, improve safety, and support compliance with increasingly stringent environmental regulations. …
An air-operated diaphragm pump (AODD) is a seal-less, positive-displacement pump that uses compressed air to drive flexible diaphragms and move fluid without rotating components. This design enables reliable handling of abrasive slurries, viscous fluids, corrosive chemicals, and solids-laden media while offering self-priming, dry-run tolerance, and inherent leak containment. These …
Crude oil distillation is the central refining process that separates hydrocarbons into distinct fractions, such as gasoline, diesel, jet fuel, gas oils, and heavier residues, according to their boiling points. This process relies heavily on robust fluid handling to move raw crude, intermediate streams, and end products through heaters, towers, …
