- Selecting the right pump for slurries is critical to get the most bang for your buck. Basic pump components, such as the impeller size and design, material of construction, and discharge configurations must be considered to ensure the pump will hold up against the wear caused by an abrasive slurry. Slurry pumps are generally larger in size when compared to low-viscosity liquid pumps and usually require more horsepower to operate because they're less efficient. Bearings and shafts must be more rugged and rigid as well.
- First, what is a slurry? A slurry is a semi-liquid mixture, usually consisting of fine particles. Examples of slurries can include manure, cement, starch, or coal suspended in water. There are countless other combinations that can be considered slurries. Because of the added particles and thicker consistency, special pump requirements should be considered. A standard pump may be able to handle the fluid, but not as effectively as a properly sized slurry pump.
- Consider the impeller. Slurry pumps must have thicker vanes than water pumps to prevent wear. Due to the increased thickness, there will be fewer vanes, otherwise the passages will be too narrow and will affect the performance of the pump. The impeller should have a large enough passage so that the largest solid particles can pass through without clogging.

- Will solids size pass through the pump?
- The discharge branch can be positioned at intervals of 45 degrees by request and oriented to any eight positions to suit installations and applications. There are many drive modes for option, such as V-belt, flexible coupling, gearbox, hydraulic coupler variable frequency, silicon controlled speed, etc. Among them, the flexible shaft coupling drive and V-belt feature of low cost and easy installation.
- Slurry Pump
- A dredge pump contains a pump casing and an impeller. The impeller is mounted in the pump casing and connected to the drive motor via a gearbox and shaft. The front part of the pump casing is sealed with a suction cover and connected directly to the suction pipe of the dredger. The discharge port of the dredge pump is located near the top of the dredge pump and is connected to a separate discharge line.
- With the development of the dredging market, the requirements for dredging equipment are getting higher and higher, and the suction resistance and vacuum of dredging pumps are getting higher and higher, which has a great impact on the efficiency of dredging pumps and the chance of cavitation is getting higher and higher. The number of >dredging pumps is also increasing.

- Slurry Pump selection
- - Low noise level - Operating underwater results in low noise or even silent operation.
- Non-settling slurries consist of very fine particles that do not settle to the bottom of the pipe and do not settle for very long (i.e. weeks).
- Slurry Pump VS Mud Pump
- Natural rubber is an excellent wear material when handling wet sand slurries. Its strength, resilience and cut resistance have a positive impact on the wear performance of slurry pumps.

- Applications
- As described below, there are several , types of pumps, that are suitable for pumping slurries. However, before considering which technology to use, we must address several key issues.
- Are the pump discharge components suitable for the slurry being pumped?
- There are several types of slurry pumps, the most common being: centrifugal and volumetric pumps.
- Corrosiveness of the slurry
- How to choose a slurry pump?

- >Slurry Pump VS Mud Pump
- When the slurry pump working, pump parts are easy to be impacted, wear, and corrosion, etc. Therefore, the liner of the slurry pump uses wear-resistant material, such as high chromium alloy, rubber. The wear-resistant materials can effectively reduce the wear parts of the pump. So most of the slurry pump is a wear-resistant slurry pump in the current market.

- How to choose a slurry pump?
- Low slurry flow rates
- Some models can generate discharge pressures up to 260 ft. (80 m).
- Under ideal conditions, a dredge pump can produce fluid acceleration greater than the speed of its fastest moving component.
- There is a science behind the design of a >slurry pump, based primarily on the processes and tasks it will perform. This is why it is important to use the right slurry pump for your specific needs. In a field that encompasses so many specialities, long-lasting, efficient and reliable quality equipment is essential.

- WY type pump casing is made of abrasion resistant metal, impeller material can be abrasion resistant metal or rubber. The submerged parts of WYJ are all lined with rubber, for transfer corrosive slurry.
- Slurry Pump
- As the slurry is collected at the bottom of the tower, more rubber lined pumps are required to transfer the slurry to storage tanks, tailings ponds, waste treatment facilities or filter presses. Depending on the type of FGD process, other pump models are available for slurry discharge, pre-scrubber recovery and catch basin applications.

- With the standard flush schedule, the flow is usually adjusted by compressing the packings until a few drops of water are observed leaking from the seals on the drive side. In a quench schedule the flow rate is set by adjusting the inlet valve, while a valve is used on the exhaust side to maintain the correct seal tank pressure. If the outlet water from the seal box is too hot, the flow rate is increased until the outlet water cools, while still maintaining the correct seal box pressure.
- Reduced inventory
- Light-duty Slurry Pump
- On the other hand, if the slurry is not only abrasive but also has a low pH, then a duplex stainless steel construction is preferable. This material is best suited for slurry pumps to withstand harsh materials (such as acids) while still having a high Brinell hardness.
- In a subsea installation, the slurry pump runs directly in the slurry and does not require a support structure, which means it is flexible and easy to install. If possible, the catch basin should be equipped with sloping walls to allow sediment to slide down into the area directly below the pump inlet. Agitators should be used when the liquid contains large amounts of solids and has a high particle density. Freestanding or side-mounted (submersible) mixers are an excellent choice for resuspended solids, especially if the catch basin is large or does not have sloping walls.
- The length of the piping. The longer the pipe, the more slurry-induced friction the pump needs to overcome.
- Centrifugal slurry pumps capable of providing high capacity with a limited head are mainly used for pumping slurry through pipes with a concentration of less than 70% by weight of solids. Centrifugal slurry pumps can be vertical, horizontal or submersible.
- Corrosiveness of the liquid or slurry mixture: More corrosive slurries will wear pump components faster and may dictate the choice of pump manufacturing materials.
